SSAT Thresholds

Prep School Admissions
1

Hello everyone! I hope y’all got in your applications and everything went swimmingly ( ͡o ͜ʖ ͡o)

I was curious, just for the sake of discussion; what do you think the SSAT thresholds for different BSes are? What I mean by this is at what scores will the school automatically reject a student? I imagine they must do this, to weed out the people who apply with very poor scores. Specifically, what do you think about the top ones? I’m applying to Exeter so that’s the one I care about most ;p

I can’t wait to hear what you guys think!

Hey! I am also only applying to Exeter! According to Exeter, there averages are in the mid 90’s. Exeter said that there is no score threshold where those who fail to get a certain amount will flat out get rejected. This is true for many schools. I forgot who, but there was a student who had a disability, got 99percentile in one of the subjects, and did miserably in the other. Average of around 50% and Exeter accepted him. But I would say having a high SSAT score wouldn’t harm you.
