13. Alaska
Average SAT Score, Adjusted for Participation: 1555
Alaska got a C (73.9) on the quality of their educational system. Considering that they spent $18,414 per student, the third highest spending in the country, that isn’t a great result. Although to be fair, Alaska is a bit specific, due to its huge area and scarce population, the educational costs are bound to be high.
