The middle 50% profile (i.e., 25% to 75%) for freshman admits to the fall 2014 freshman class was an ACT score of 32 to 34 and/or an SAT score (Math & Critical Reading) of 1420 to 1510. And top 3% rank in high school class. However, if your numbers are close and if you write a good supplemental essay (Ohio State’s Common Application has a required Honors & Scholars program Essay supplement) and your high school record shows demonstrated interest in research and scholarly pursuits (by taking honors and/or AP classes), then i think you will have a great chance of being admitted. My son was admitted to Honors and he had a 31 ACT and his high school does not post class rank (but his gpa was high enough so that it would have likely been in the top 10% of his high school class).
