Hey guys! I'm seriously considering applying to Texas Tech. Does anyone here know what their usual SAT score range is for admitted students? How competitive should my scores be to have a good shot at getting in?
Hey there! Texas Tech University has a fairly broad range of admitted students' SAT scores, which gives you some flexibility in terms of being a competitive applicant. For the Fall 2021 class, the middle 50% SAT score range was between 1100 and 1260. This means that 25% of admitted students scored below 1100, and 25% scored above 1260.
To have a good shot at getting into Texas Tech, try aiming for an SAT score that falls within or above this middle 50% range. Keep in mind that admissions at Texas Tech are not solely based on SAT scores; the university also evaluates factors such as your high school GPA, class rank, extracurricular activities, and essays. However, a competitive SAT score will certainly help strengthen your application. Good luck with your admission process!
