This list features popular colleges where your application will likely be competitive, given their historical acceptance of students with a 950 SAT score.

Is a 950 SAT bad?

A score of 950 is pretty low. It situates you in the bottom 31st percentile on the national scale, underperforming the majority of the 1.7 million SAT test takers. This score signifies your well below average performance in answering questions in the Math and Evidence-Based Reading & Writing sections of the exam. The SAT is scored out of a maximum of 1600 and a minimum of 400, meaning your 950 score represents 59% of the total possible points. If a 950 does not meet the requirements of your preferred college, you might want to consider enrolling in a test prep course to potentially enhance your score.
