SAT成绩在录取中起到了“门槛”的效果。如果连门槛都达不到，可能招生官也不太会在意你的背景如何了。那么申请一所美国大学，SAT达到多少分才算好呢？
下表包含了美国排名前25的学校及其入学学生的SAT分数范围。对于每一所学校，考试君为你列出了SAT平均分数、25%分数和75%的新生分数。
25%的分数意味着25%的学生得分达到或低于此值；而75%的分数意味着75%的学生得分达到或低于此值。因此，第25%和75%的分数代表了中间50%区间内的学生的SAT分数，即平均SAT分数范围。对于SAT分数来说，如果你高于75%的分数，就算是“合格”了。

从这张图表中可以看出，这25所顶尖学校所需的SAT分数略有不同，但总体上还是相当高的。在这些学校中，加州大学洛杉矶分校的SAT分数最低：入学学生中的50%的分数在1250到1500之间。也可能是因为UCLA是公立大学，会照顾很多低分的学生。相比之下，加州理工学院保持着最高的SAT分数：只有25%的新生的分数在1530分或以下。
这25所学校不够全面，考试君总结了76所美国热门大学的SAT信息。从大型的公立大学到小型的文理学院都有哦~

其实75%的分数更具有参考价值，因为25%的分数包含了太多其他因素（比如低分入学），所以没有太大的作用。考试君提醒大家如果你已经达到了你梦校的分数，就不要把时间花在提升5分、10分的备考上，可以用更多时间去提升自己的活动背景哦~
