Hey everyone! I've been studying for the SAT and was wondering, what's the highest possible score you can get on it? Is it still out of 1600 or has that changed?
Hey! You're correct, the highest possible score you can get on the SAT is still 1600. The exam is broken down into two sections: Reading and Writing, and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 200-800, and the scores from both sections are combined to give you your total score. The highest score in each section is 800, so when you add them together, the maximum score is 1600. Good luck with your studying, and I hope you achieve the score you're aiming for!
