What's the lowest possible SAT score?

Hey everyone, I was just wondering what the lowest possible SAT score is? I'm kinda stressing about my upcoming test and want to know the range of scores. Thanks!

Hey there! Don't stress too much; it's better to just prepare as best as you can and take the test without worrying too much about the lowest possible scores. But to answer your question, the lowest possible SAT score is 400.

The SAT is divided into two main sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 200-800, so the lowest possible score on each section is 200. When you add the two section scores together, you get a minimum score of 400.

However, it's important to note that a 400 is rare and not something you should worry about. Focus on your test preparation, work on your weaknesses, and practice with sample tests or resources like Khan Academy. This will help you build confidence and improve your score. Good luck on your upcoming test!
