Yo! I have my ACT score and would just like to know what it translates to for the SAT. Does anyone have a credible ACT to SAT score conversion tool that they'd recommend using?
Hey there! The most reliable ACT to SAT score conversion tool is the official concordance table provided by the College Board and ACT themselves. This table allows you to compare your ACT composite score to its equivalent SAT total score (and vice versa). Since these two organizations are the official testing authorities, this concordance table is the most accurate source for conversion.
You can find the official concordance table by simply searching "ACT and SAT Concordance Table" on the College Board website or the ACT website. Once you find the table, locate your ACT score and look for the corresponding SAT score in the same row.
Keep in mind that these conversions are only estimations and may not perfectly represent how you would perform if you actually took the SAT. The two tests have slightly different structures and focus on different aspects of your knowledge and skills. However, the concordance table gives a fair estimate that can help you as you compare your scores to different colleges' average admitted student profiles.
Good luck! Let us know if you have any other questions.
