That really depends on many factors, the most important of which is your color, i.e., your race, next is your sex. Blacks are accepted with scores 200 points below whites. Income makes some difference but not as much as color. A young, middle class black man with professionals for parents will be accepted long before a young and poor, white man. No one wants to talk about it, but it is true. I worked last year with a work-study intern who was accepted to Wisconsin with an SAT more than 300 points below the next door neighbors kid who scored 620 in English and 652 in math. Guess who got a partial scholarship. Oh, by the way, both lived in nice neighborhoods and went to good schools. They are both nice, decent people but the decision should be based on income more than race these days. The questioner is a little naive to ask it in that way.
