I've seen a lot of people asking about ACT to SAT conversions recently and I'm curious too. Is there a reliable, up-to-date concordance table somewhere online where I can compare my scores? Thanks in advance!
Yes, there is a reliable and up-to-date concordance table that you can use to compare your ACT and SAT scores. The most accurate and official source for this information is the ACT-SAT Concordance Table provided by the College Board and ACT organizations. This table was jointly released by both the organizations to facilitate comparisons between the scores of these two tests.
You can access this official concordance table directly from the College Board's website. Just search for "ACT-SAT Concordance Table College Board," and you should quickly find the official document with the relevant conversions. This table will help you convert your ACT scores into equivalent SAT scores, and vice versa.
When comparing your scores using the official table, remember that these conversions are estimates, and it's best to treat them as a broad reference. Each test has its unique characteristics, and scores might not directly translate into equivalent performances across the two exams. However, this concordance table should still give you a general idea of where your scores stand and can help inform your decision on which test to submit for your college applications if you've taken both.
