Hey guys, I've been hearing a lot about the SAT, and I'm wondering: what's the highest total score you can get on the SAT? Thanks!
Hey there! The SAT is scored on a scale of 400 to 1600, with 1600 being the highest possible total score. The test is divided into two sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (also known as the "verbal" section), and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 200 to 800, and the scores from both sections are combined to give you your final total score. So, if you're aiming for the highest score, you'll want to aim for 800 on both the Reading and Writing section and the Math section. Good luck with your test preparation!
