Look at Yale’s SAT ranges, they range (about) 700 to 800 in each category, so that means the 25th percentile to the 75th percentile had 2100 to 2400. So 25%, atleast, of Yale admits had a 2100 or lower.



I’m not sure if your logic is correct. 700 is the 25th percentile for each of the three individual scores, not for a total score of 2100. I think that students admitted to Yale who score 700 in one section will likely score above that in the other sections. As such, I’m fairly certain that a total score of 2100, with individual scores of 700, would be beneath the 25th percentile.
