Is a 1320 SAT Score Good?

A 1320 out of 1600 is well above average for test takers nationally — approximately the 86th percentile, meaning you scored at or above roughly 86% of students. It converts to an ACT score of about 28 on the official concordance.

What a 1320 means for your college list

Measure	Value
Approximate national percentile	86th
Equivalent ACT score	28
Colleges where this is at or above the 75th percentile	98
Colleges where this falls inside the middle 50%	98
Colleges where this is below the 25th percentile	81

Those counts are drawn from the 277 four-year colleges in our dataset that report SAT ranges. A score above a college’s 75th percentile makes testing a strength in that applicant pool; inside the range it is neutral; below the 25th percentile the rest of the application has to do the work.
