Is a 1120 a good SAT score?

A score of 1120 is a little better than average. It places you in the top 63rd percentile nationally out of the 1.7 million test takers of the SAT entrance exam. The score indicates you've done a slightly above average job answering the questions on the Math and Evidence-Based Reading & Writing sections of the test. If a 1120 isn't strong enough to get into your dream school, consider taking a test prep course to see if you can raise your score.

What is the ACT equivalent to a 1120 SAT score?

For comparison purposes, a 1120 on the SAT converts to a 21 on the ACT based on the College Board / ACT concordance. Not all colleges report both SAT and ACT score admission data so you should check our comparable listings for both standardized tests to find academically similar schools.
