Hey all! Aiming high here and looking into Ohio State. If any of you have any idea about what kind of SAT scores they're looking for, it would really ease my stress knowing where I stand. Cheers!
Hello! The range of SAT scores for admitted students at Ohio State tends to be fairly wide to reflect the diversity of students they admit. However, to provide a general sense, the middle 50% range for admitted students for the recent classes has been around 1300-1480 out of 1600. This means that 25% of admitted students scored below 1300, while another 25% scored above 1480.
To stand a reasonably good chance, your aim should be to score above the 75th percentile score (1480). However, it's also important to remember that Ohio State, like many universities, uses a holistic review process where your SAT score is just one part of your total application. So, even if your scores fall below the middle 50%, you could still be admitted based on your other strengths.
Hope this helps and best of luck with your application!
