The Perfect Sat Score- No Longer A 2400????

Applying to College
1

<p>what do you think the perfect SAT score is for a URM?
how about for anyone in general???</p>

<p>i am talking about the “perfect” SAT score that will allow someone to get accepted into every school they apply to, without any rejection and without any waitlisting. apparently a 2400 gets some rejections…as well as 2350s, but which score is best for URM and non-URM???</p>

<p>i would like to hear your opinions. :)</p>

<p>share any experiences you have had, or any ppl you know have had, with getting accepted/rejected and what the SAT score was.****</p>

<p>comments? anyone?</p>

<p>There’s no such thing. Harvard rejects 25% of applicants with 2400s.</p>

<p>For a URM, however, I think anything over 2350 will get you into any college, guaranteed.</p>

<p>No school looks solely at SAT scores. That’s true for URMs and for everyone else. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>There is no such guarantee. Period. You can increase your odds by choosing your list wisely, but your odds will never be 100%.</p>

<p>^^^^wrong…</p>

<p>you’llsee… is a URM on CC w/ 2350 who got rejected to some colleges…</p>

<p>i want to know what ppl think the “perfect score” for admissions is… i don’t want to hear about the 2400 statistics of acceptance…</p>

<p>

wow i must really have sucked</p>

7

<p>i just want some #'s to be thrown out… i don’t want to hear about all this other stuff, i know the SAT is not the only factor… even ppl w/ nice ECs still get rejected…</p>

<p>will someone answer my post correctly?</p>

8

<p>IMO, a URM with anything over a 2300 and a GPA of 3.7 + , with decent ECs, and 700+ SAT 2s…will be in anywhere…</p>

9

<p>i think a URM with 2100-2200s and a non-URM w/ 2200s</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You couldn’t be more wrong.</p>

11

<p>this is a throw out #‘s thread^^^^ not one of those threads were ppl go ranting on and on about go get a 2300+ and u are "guranteed’ ivy…</p>

<p>what was your SAT and where did u not get in???^^^</p>

<p>“you’llsee… is a URM on CC w/ 2350 who got rejected to some colleges…”</p>

<p>Right. Link?</p>

13

<p>you keep asking for someone to answer ur thread correctly but really there is no correct answer. stop asking. there is no guaranteed score. i know a URM in the grade above me who had a 2250 SAT, was nationally recognized in cello, and BOTH his parents went to harvard, and he still got waitlisted. there’s no guarantee.</p>
