Is my SAT score good enough for the CTY program cause I got a 1620 in SAT.?

Answer 1

Well, the 1620 must be on the new 2400 scale.

Since we are talking about the SAT, consider the following:

We encourage educators, parents, and others to nominate students who exhibit outstanding academic talent to participate in the CTY Talent Search. The nominations are based on the following criteria:

95th percentile or higher...

Achievement at the 95th percentile or higher on one or more subtests of a nationally-normed standardized test

The percentile for your age group should be printed on your SAT report for each subject as well as an overall score. Here is the percentile rank for each subscore of the SAT for collegebound seniors. Remember that this is probably not applicable to your age group.

Remember, this is just for a nomination and it is not guarinteed.
