[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming a kid wants to attend a college in the top 10. Is a 1590 or 1600 more helpful than a score in the range of 1530-1560? And is a 1600 better than a 1590? Does it depend on his high school?[/quote] Of course it depends on high school. If the high school averages at 1000, 1500 is a superstar. For T10 schools, 1580+ helps. I have seen several cases where 1580+ test score helps T10 admissions (with slightly lower gpa, slightly mid ECs, etc). It also depends on colleges. For colleges that emphasize on intellectual fit, the impact of the test score plateaued after 1530. For T10 schools, the line is higher. [/quote]
