Is it true that a student with 8.8 CGPA in class 10th cannot get admission in the Ivy League colleges of USA without a good SAT score?

Does he need to score above 95% in HSC? Can a student also get rejected if he has a low percentage in class 10th?

    Hi Vivek,
    Your scores are not the only factor which will be evaluated by Ivy Leagues. They require all-rounder and not book worms. They look for students who will contribute to the university and the school. More than 95% is not mandatory at all, but if you do its good for you. An highly academic student that is a student with more than 95% may also be rejected if the university finds the student profile not so fit for the university. Go through these links, understand the kind of profiles they take in:
