by What counts as a good SAT score depends entirely on each student’s ability and which schools he wants to attend. While no score can guarantee admission into a university, a score near the school’s average can help.Generally, a score of at least 1100 gives you a better chance than 50 percent of applicants for getting into state schools. However, this is generally too low for Ivy League schools. A 1400 makes you very likely to get into most schools but just barely puts you in the running for Ivy League universities.
