Hi all, if someone scores an 800 on the SAT's math section, what would the equivalent ACT math score be? I couldn't find any info online. Thanks!
Hi there! Converting an 800 on the SAT math section to the equivalent ACT math score is not a direct one-to-one conversion, but I can give you an estimated comparison. Since an 800 is a perfect score on the SAT math section, you could expect to receive a 35 or 36 on the ACT math section, which is scored out of 36.
Keep in mind, though, that this is just an approximation, as the SAT and ACT have slightly different content and test structures. Nevertheless, an 800 on the SAT math is a great achievement and shows strong proficiency in the subject, which would likely lead to you also earning a high ACT math score!
