Presidential Scholar

Test Preparation
1

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I have a 2290 superscore in the SAT, and I was wondering whether that would be enough to qualify for Presidential Scholar?</p>

<p>Additionally, would a 34 or a 35 on the ACT qualify?</p>

<p>Well, it depends on the competition in your state, but I doubt you will. You could look at the state-by-state ACT reports on their webiste and see what scores have been like in your state in past.</p>

<p>Can you give me that website?</p>

4

<p>For competitive states, you almost have to have perfect SAT scores on Math + CR.</p>

5

<p>ACT subscore sum 141, guarantees candidate status. your score is highly unlikely, but could depend on the state.</p>

</p>

<p>How do you know?</p>

<p>OP: What is your CR+M score single sitting? That’s the only SAT score that matters.</p>

7

<p>Mine’s a 1490, so I’m pretty sure it’s not going to qualify.</p>

8

<p>1490 is definitely too low for any state. Most states are 1590-1600.</p>

9

<p>^^ per commission on presidential scholars/presidential scholars program: =>141 (ACT) counts as 1600 (SAT)</p>

</p>

<p>Is there a link to support that? Why would a 35 ACT convert to a perfect 1600 on the SAT?</p>

11

<p>not 35, subscore sum 141; it’s how conversion works for them.</p>
