I got a 1520 (out of 1600) on the New SAT my state mandated us to take. I’m an Asian female, so is this score acceptable to Ivies and other top schools?
Google: “Common Data Set <>”
Section C9 will list the 25th-75th percentile SAT scores of admitted students. You’ll need to convert your scores to the old SAT scale.
@PrimeMeridian thanks

If you can retake and get a higher score, I think you are going to definitely improve your chance of getting into a selective school.
1520 seems to be about 25th percentile of most selective schools, and chance of getting in with 25th percentile test score and without hooks in those kinds of schools is pretty slim imo.
Do you have any specific schools in mind? I have a 1510 superscore and am Asian, but it’s decent depending what you consider top schools.
@YoLolololol Not sure if you searched up any specific schools, but the 25th percentile for even the tippy top schools(HYPS) are around 700 per section which is a 2100 and a 1520 converts to a 2200. It might be below average but not really 25th percentile.
