This list features popular colleges where your application will likely be competitive, given their historical acceptance of students with a 1300 SAT score.

Is a 1300 SAT good?

Yes, a score of 1300 is very good. It situates you in the top 88th percentile on the national scale, outperforming the majority of the 1.7 million SAT test takers.
