Hey there, I'm really interested in attending Florida State University (FSU) after high school. Can someone tell me the SAT score I should be aiming for to get in? Thanks for your help!
Hey! It's great that you're interested in Florida State University (FSU). Keep in mind that FSU, like many other universities, employs a holistic review process, which means that they consider more than just test scores when evaluating applicants. However, test scores are still an important component of your application.
To give you an idea of what scores to aim for, the middle 50% SAT score range for admitted students at FSU has been around 1370 - 1480 in recent years. This range represents the 25th to 75th percentile of admitted students' scores, which means that 50% of the admitted students scored within this range.
Aiming for a score within or above this range will make you a competitive applicant. However, it's important to note that applicants with scores below this range can still be admitted, especially if they have strong extracurriculars, essays, and other parts of their application.
In addition to SAT scores, make sure to focus on maintaining a strong GPA, engaging in meaningful extracurricular activities, and writing compelling essays. All of these factors will contribute to your overall application and can help make up for any potential individual weaknesses.
Good luck with your application, and I hope you achieve your goal of attending FSU!
