[quote=Anonymous]If a student has no hooks, the best positioning for test scores is to be around the school’s 75th percentile or higher. If you’re there, and you don’t get admitted, something else in the application didn’t work for the admission officer. The other caveat is the program/major of interest. If you’re applying for film studies at a typical university, interest in that major may be slim, so you might get admitted with a lower test score. On the other hand, if you’re applying to computer science or engineering, you should try to determine the scores for successful admits to those programs. Typically, they are somewhat higher than the overall school average, particularly the math score. [/quote]
