Hi, I'm a little stressed about my SAT scores and was wondering what the average SAT score is for applicants admitted to Virginia Tech. I want to know if I'm on the right track or if I should retake the exam. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
Hi! No need to stress, I'm here to help. The average SAT score for students admitted to Virginia Tech typically falls between 1340 and 1430. Keep in mind that this range represents the middle 50% of admitted students, meaning that 25% of admitted students scored below this range and 25% scored above it.
You should consider your own SAT score in relation to this range. If your score falls within or above this range, you have a competitive score for Virginia Tech. However, if it's below this range, you may want to consider retaking the exam to increase your chances of being admitted.
Remember that while your SAT score is an important part of your application, it's not the only factor considered by the admissions committee. Virginia Tech will also take into account your high school GPA, coursework rigor, extracurricular involvement, essays, and recommendations. Aim for a well-rounded application that showcases your unique strengths and experiences.
Good luck!
