SAT Score Calculator

Convert your raw scores to scaled scores and see your percentile ranking. Uses the 2024+ digital SAT scoring format.

The digital SAT is section-adaptive, and College Board does not publish a public raw-to-scaled conversion table for it — each test form is individually equated. These are modeled estimates based on the published score ranges and typical curves for each Module 2 difficulty path, not an official College Board table.

What does a real score gain look like?

On the hard-path Math curve, going from 35 to 40 correct (5 more questions) moves your scaled score from 740 to 790. Averaged across the raw-score range, each additional correct answer is worth about 19 points through the lower half of the range and about 9 through the upper half — this example sits in the flatter upper half, and the last few points before a perfect raw score add nothing at all, so the same 5-question jump is worth more lower on the scale — there is no fixed “points per question” rate.

There is no verified, generalizable figure for how many points a given amount of practice adds — it depends on your starting score, which specific skills are costing you points, and how much of your practice is timed and reviewed under real conditions. The only reliable way to see where you actually stand is to test under real conditions and re-test after focused practice on your weak areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about SAT scoring.

How is the SAT scored?+
The SAT is scored on a 400–1600 scale. It has two sections: Reading & Writing (200–800) and Math (200–800). Your composite score is the sum of both section scores. All scores are reported in 10-point increments.
What is a good SAT score?+
The average SAT score is approximately 1050. A score of 1200+ is considered competitive for many colleges. A 1400+ puts you in the top 6% of test takers, and 1500+ places you in the top 2% — competitive for the most selective universities.
How does adaptive scoring work on the digital SAT?+
The digital SAT uses section-adaptive testing. Each section has two modules. Your performance on Module 1 determines whether Module 2 is easier, medium, or harder. Performing well on Module 1 unlocks harder questions in Module 2, which gives you access to higher score ceilings. For example, the easy path caps at 580 per section, while the hard path allows scores up to 800.
What’s the difference between raw and scaled scores?+
Your raw score is simply the number of questions you answered correctly — there is no penalty for wrong answers on the digital SAT. Your scaled score is the converted score (200–800 per section) that accounts for the difficulty level of the questions you received. Two students with the same raw score can get different scaled scores if they took different difficulty paths.
Can I superscore my SAT?+
Yes, most colleges accept superscoring. Superscoring means they take your highest Reading & Writing section score and your highest Math section score across all test dates, then combine them for your best possible composite score. Check each college’s policy to confirm they accept superscores.
Is this an official College Board score calculator?+
No. College Board does not publish a public raw-to-scaled conversion table for the digital SAT — each test form is individually equated by their own internal model, and no two forms use the exact same curve. The conversion this tool applies is a modeled estimate built from College Board’s published score ranges and typical scoring curves for each Module 2 difficulty path, not a table College Board released. The percentile figures are sourced from College Board’s own published research. For your real, official score, only an actual administered SAT counts.
