Is a 1300 out of 1600 good sat score?

A 1300 out of 1600 on the SAT is a good score. It's above the national average and places you in a competitive position for many colleges. However, whether it's *good enough* for a specific college depends on that college's average SAT score and its overall competitiveness. Some highly selective schools may expect higher scores, while others might find a 1300 perfectly acceptable.
