Frequently asked questions
Is 1100 a good SAT score?
A 1100 is at or above the 25th percentile of enrolled students at 15 of the 142 colleges in our dataset that publish an SAT range. It is above the 75th percentile at 0 of them and below the 25th percentile at 127. Whether that is good depends on which of those groups your target schools fall into.
What is a 1100 SAT in ACT terms?
A 1100 SAT is equivalent to an ACT Composite of 22 on the official ACT/SAT concordance published by College Board and ACT. An ACT 22 ranks at the 72nd percentile of ACT test takers nationally.
Should I retake the SAT with a 1100?
A retake is worth the most at schools where a 1100 is below the 25th percentile, because that is where your score is working against you. At schools where you are already inside the middle 50%, a retake is optional. At schools where you are above the 75th percentile, the SAT is no longer what holds your application back.
