What's a competitive SAT score for Johns Hopkins?

I'm interested in applying to Johns Hopkins and I want to know what SAT score would make me a competitive applicant. Does anyone have any insight on the average SAT scores of accepted students or what I should aim for?

A competitive SAT score for Johns Hopkins University is typically above the 75th percentile of accepted students' scores. According to the most recent available data, the middle 50% range for SAT scores of admitted students is approximately 1530 to 1560. This means that 25% of accepted students scored below a 1530, while another 25% scored above a 1560.

To be a competitive applicant, you should aim for around a 1560, which is the higher end of this range. However, Johns Hopkins uses a holistic admissions process, meaning that they will consider all aspects of your application beyond just test scores, including grades, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation.

That said, having a strong SAT score can definitely help your application stand out, especially if your other application components are also strong. If your SAT score falls below the middle 50% range, make sure to focus on developing other aspects of your application like showcasing your academic rigor, extracurricular achievements, and writing compelling essays to strengthen your overall application.
