An elite university receives tens of thousands of applications for admittance to a special program at the university each year. For the initial vetting process, the university only looks at about the top 8% of applicants (in terms of composite SAT scores). If the applications for a certain year have a mean SAT score of 1100, with a standard deviation of 250, what is the cutoff SAT score for the first step of the vetting process? Round to the nearest whole number, if necessary.
  1. 1125
  2. 1150
  3. 1538
  4. 1453
