Hi everyone, I'm preparing for the upcoming SAT and need to set a target score. I have my eyes on James Madison University, so what SAT scores do students typically have there? Can anyone give me a range for admitted students? Thanks in advance!
Hey there! To give you a good idea of the SAT scores for students admitted to James Madison University, you can look at the middle 50% range. The middle 50% range means that 25% of students scored below this range and 25% scored above it. For JMU, the middle 50% range for the SAT is between 1210 and 135=70.
While it's always a good idea to aim for a score within or above this range, remember that JMU also uses a holistic admissions process, and other factors such as your GPA, extracurricular involvement, and essay quality will play a role in your acceptance as well. However, having a strong SAT score will certainly boost your overall application profile.
Best of luck with your SAT preparation and your application to JMU!
