Hey, so I know that the SAT has a maximum score, but I'm not exactly sure what it is. Can anyone tell me what a perfect score on the SAT looks like?
A perfect score on the SAT is 1600. The SAT is divided into two sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (EBRW) and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 200 to 800 points, and the scores from both sections are combined to give you a total score. So, if you achieve a perfect score of 800 in both the EBRW and Math sections, you would have a combined score of 1600, which is considered a perfect SAT score. I hope you find this information helpful!
