SAT II scores?

<p>Hi! A junior at my school is asking me about SAT II scores since I just went through the admissions process. Strangely enough, I don't know how to answer her question. I'm unaware of their significance and what constitutes a good score. She is taking Math II, Biology molecule, and US History. For top ranked schools (UCLA, USC, WUSTL) what should she go for? I suggested 750+ on all, and a 780 + on Math II? Thoughts? Thank you!</p>

<p>For the top schools that require the SAT Subject Tests, usually anything above 700 works fine. For the very top schools, then I agree 750 is about right. Beyond that it is all the same. </p>

<p>One admin officer at a top-5 school says that they view 760 - 800 as the same on Subject tests, and they view 2300 - 2400 as the same on the SAT.</p>

<p>But, really the rankings are somewhat subjective, but the higher the rank, usually the higher the test scores (schools like Caltech and Mudd excepted; they are just high scores period).</p>

<p>@awcntdb‌ Thank you for your answer :slight_smile: I’ll let her know!</p>

<p>You are welcome.</p>
