If you're wondering if you have the SAT scores you'll need to get into one of the Pac 12 Conference universities, here's a side-by-side comparison of scores for the middle 50% of enrolled students. If your scores fall within or above these ranges, you're on target for admission to one of these universities.

Realize, of course, that SAT scores are just one part of the application. The admissions officers at most Pac 12 universities will also be looking for a strong high school record, a well-crafted essay and meaningful extracurricular activities.
