What's the average ACT score for Yale?

I've been aspiring to make it to Yale. Can anybody share information on the average ACT score for Yale? I understand that it's competitive, but I just want to gauge my current standing and set a target score for myself.

Sure, it's great to have a target to aim for in mind. For applicants to Yale University, the middle 50% ACT composite score tends to fall between 33 and 35. That said, getting a score within this range doesn't guarantee admission, as Yale, like many other top-tier universities, employs a holistic review process that goes beyond just test scores. Your GPA, essay, recommendations, extracurricular activities, and other properties of your application matter too. Also, it's worth mentioning that Yale is going back to a testing requirement for the 2024-2025 application cycle. So, setting your target above the 33-35 range would give you a stronger chance to stand out. Good luck with your preparation!
