Are my SAT scores good?

When it comes to SAT scores, "good" is a relative term. Several students are too hard on themselves when they actually have good scores, and other kids take the test with a very lax attitude. Average composite score (out of 1600) is approximately a 1000, so you're a little bit above average (a lot of schools don't consider the Writing section entirely). Whether or not your score is good also depends on whether you feel you can do better and what colleges you are looking at. For example, I'm looking at Notre Dame, MIT, and Cornell, so I'm not happy until I score above 1500 (Currently have a 740 Math and a 680 Critical Reading). My suggestion: look it over this summer and throughout the school year to maximize your score. Best of luck!
