Average SAT 2 Scores for Stanford

<p>I mean-- all in one sitting.</p>

<p>Wow ewho perfect scores can you suggest me some reading materials ??? I am a 2010 'er…</p>

<p>The amount of triple 800’s reported on CC is quite discouraging :(</p>

<p>SAT IIs really aren’t that important…
i got into a few ivies too with my scores;;</p>

<p>but they look at WHAT subject youre taking more-- for example, if youre Chinese and you take the Chinese SAT II and get an 800? not impressive. </p>

<p>my SAT I was 2150, superscored</p>

<p>SAT II’s scores are not that critical as long as they are over 700. The same thing for SAT I.</p>

<p>Math II-800
Bio-E-730
Chemistry-740</p>

<p>EPIC FAIL</p>

<p>Chem 630
Physics 770
Math II 800</p>

<p>I studied a grand total of 2 hours for all of those exams combined so you get an idea of how much they mattered to me.</p>

<p>Change91- You’re SAT I was only a 2150? Isn’t that a little low for Stanford? What was your hook? You give me hope. haha.</p>

<p>yup. and matriculating too yeaaa</p>

<p>is ewho c1ndy’s mom/dad? Because they have the same scores for the same tests.</p>

<p>My son is in class of 2012, four kids from his school went to Stanford that year, at least he and one of the other kids got 3x800 in the subject tests. Well, one of the kids I know got rejected this year, he had 3x800 plus 2300 on the regular SAT + 10 APs + more… He will attend Columbia.</p>

<p>Mine were awful, and I just got accepted. :)</p>

<p>Chem - 760
Math1 - 660 (lolz)
USHist - 640 (double lolz)</p>

<p>The variance among the scores here is surprising to me. Even factoring in that everyone has completely different profiles (EC’s, Grades, SAT/ACT, Race, socioeconomic standing, etc.) beside the scores, I would have expected a bit more consistency.</p>

<p>^I would have expected the same as well. I wonder if HYPM are similar to Stanford’s score distribution. They probably are to an extent, but I think the other peer schools have slightly higher averages. I bet Caltech’s would be consistently in the mid 700-800 range, due to their male math/science base, who tend to do better on standardized tests. </p>

<p>Then again, this really isn’t a great survey. People might be more inclined to post lower scores to show that it can be done, and those with high scores may not want to post their scores to avoid seeming like they want to show-off. We should probably check out the decisions page, as those would have the scores + potential reasons for acceptance.</p>

<p>Also, two acceptees I know:
The first: 800, 800, 780 (I think)
The second: 800, 770, 670 (–)</p>

<p>wow those scores are low</p>

<p>Just another (personal) data point to add from an EA Admit, FWIW:</p>

<p>Math 2: 800</p>

<p>Physics: 800</p>

<p>Lit: 800</p>

<p>Spanish: 800</p>

<p>Math 2: 800
US History: 800
Chemistry: 800
all in 1 sitting</p>

<p>REA Admit</p>

<p>^^Nice, NJDS. 2390 SAT I (single sitting) here, while we’re comparing stats. ; ) How 'bout U?</p>

<p>

Probably (to the HYPM being higher). There seems to be a popular belief, whether accurate or not, that Stanford’s admissions process is more “holistic”.</p>

<p>^^It’s not usually my style to post stats, but I’m here as one of many counter-examples to the notion that S’s admissions are more “holistic” or more about EC’s or hooks than its peers. The score distributions by quartile are available for each school, so it’s pretty clear that there isn’t much of an overall score differential among these institutions. Myths can be hard to dislodge once entrenched, though–especially at this nervous time of year.</p>
