<p>I am applying to Tabor, Nobles, St Marks and St Sebs. I am in 8th grade and I am applying for 9th. The SSAT average percentile for these school are 65, 81, 82, and 90. What could be the possible lowest score I could get on my SSAT's to still have a good chance at all of them.</p>
<p>I also have played lacrosse, basketball, and football in very high levels and suceeded as a Kicker and Punter. I have 5 A's and 4 B's in my last report card. I also do Chorus and help out with this town held thing.</p>
<p>I cannot definitively state what the lowest SSAT scores would be for any of these schools. The best advice is that you should score above 50 as a bare minimum, unless you are a recruited athlete. Regardless of your current SSAT scores, retaking the exam without self imposed pressure or anxieties can result in a much better score. Remember that a score in the 60s on the SSAT indicates a person smart enough to go to medical school, law school or graduate business school if willing to do the work.
One very famous, elite & prestigious boarding/day school (The Taft School) publishes that the lowest SSAT score considered would be a fifty (50). And Taft is very prestigious.</p>
<p>I would say if you want to have a good shot at all of them plus having a safety or two, try shooting for somewhere around 75. That will pretty much put you in the running for those schools.</p>
