How do I calculate my SAT score?

Hey folks, I've been studying for the SAT and I recently took a practice test. Is there an SAT score calculator out there that can help me figure out my score? How are SAT scores calculated in general?

Hi! Calculating your SAT score can be done easily by following this two-step process:

1. Raw Score Calculation: Your raw score for each section is the total number of correct answers. The SAT has two main sections – Reading and Writing (which are combined as the Evidence-based Reading and Writing score) and Math. Remember that there is no penalty for incorrect answers on the SAT, so your raw score is simply the number of questions you got right in each section.

2. Conversion to Scaled Score: Once you have your raw scores for Reading and Writing and Math, you should use the College Board's official SAT scoring tables to convert them into scaled scores. The tables can be found in the official SAT practice tests or on the College Board's website. Scaled scores range from 200 to 800 for each section. Your total SAT score will be the sum of your scaled scores for both sections, ranging from 400 to 1600.

For the most accurate calculations, I recommend using the scoring tables from the official SAT practice test that you took because each test may have slightly different score conversions. Good luck with your SAT preparation!
