IB Score Range

40-42

Bates University's IB score range for admissions shows that the 25th percentile is 40, while the 75th percentile is 42. Being within this range does not guarantee admission. Applicants at the upper end of this range are likely to stand out, while those at the lower end, such as a score of 40, will need to compensate with strong grades, compelling essays, awards, and extracurricular activities to enhance their application.
