SAT scores


Question Posted Tuesday April 7 2009, 8:40 am

I took the SAT on March 14th and got 570 in critical reading, 520 in math and 660 in writing. In total it added up to a 1750 (I'm not sure about the essay score). I didn't have any tutoring for this one and it was my first. Based on those two factors, is a 1750 average or above average? I honestly have no idea. My math score needs improvement and I knew that going into the test and I'm applying to PA state schools if that makes a difference (I know each one has certain requirements). Overall I was just curious if 1750 is a good score or not? Thanks.

Honestly, the average score that colleges accept is around a 1250...and 1250out of 2400 is an awesome score, so you deff did above average...Congrats, chill, don't worry, you flew through it...but just in case, take it again and see how you do. Also if you go to your guidance counselor or the equivalent to one of those in your school, they'll have sheets that say what schools take what score ranges....

I received a 1710 and made it into a school that's beginning to get difficult to get into (Appalachian State in NC), and I only took it once, so I have to say a 1750 is pretty good.

If you want, take it one more time to bring up that math grade.

And about the essay portion, my college psych teacher told us that the essays aren't taken into consideration very often because it's hard to determine what's truly good... too many differing opinions and stuff.

You did well, though.
I don't know what's average, but I can tell you did well.
