Northwestern SAT Score

I was thinking about applying to Northwestern ED. Is a 1480 SAT (780 Math, 700 English) high enough to apply there? Also, it says that subject tests are recommended, but do they give preference to those who submit them?

For certain programs, Subject test scores are actually required. As a rule of thumb, any recommendation by a competitive school should be treated as required. If there is no preference, it would be listed as “optional”.
SAT 1480 is within the mid 50 but not “outstanding” from other applicants.

depends on intended major. For engineering I would say its low. For A&S you could probably be fine with it

Arts & Sciences, statistics major –– my math 2 subject test is high (770) and us history is decent (730) should I submit them both?

Hi, My daughter would like to apply with early decision and major in Psychology (with a minor in theater/dance). Her GPA is 4.5. What is a “decent” SAT to get in?
