Understanding the SAT Score Predictor
The SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test) is a standardized exam widely used for college admissions in the United States. It assesses a student's readiness for college-level work. The SAT is divided into two main sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (EBRW) and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 200-800, resulting in a total score ranging from 400 to 1600.
This calculator aims to provide an estimated SAT score range based on your performance in practice tests and individual section scores. While actual SAT scores can vary slightly due to test day conditions, specific question types, and scoring nuances, this predictor uses common correlations and scaling methods to offer a reasonable projection.
How the Prediction Works:
The predictor uses a simplified model that weighs different practice components to estimate the final EBRW and Math scores.
- Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (EBRW): This section combines scores from the Reading Test and the Writing and Language Test. Each of these sub-sections is typically scored on a scale of 10-40. These raw scores are then converted to scaled scores (200-800). Our predictor takes your reported section scores (out of 40) and scales them up, then averages them to estimate your EBRW range. A higher average raw score generally correlates to a higher scaled score.
- Math: The Math section is divided into two parts: one where calculators are permitted and one where they are not. Each part is scored on a scale of 10-40 raw points. These raw scores are combined and converted to a scaled score between 200 and 800. Our predictor uses your reported raw scores for both math sections (out of 20 and 60 respectively) to estimate your total Math scaled score range.
Input Fields Explained:
- English Practice Score (0-800): If you have taken a full-length SAT practice test and received an EBRW score, you can enter it here.
- Math Practice Score (0-800): Similarly, enter your Math section score from a full practice test if available.
- Reading Section Score (0-40): The raw score from the Reading subsection of a practice test.
- Writing & Language Section Score (0-40): The raw score from the Writing and Language subsection.
- Math – No Calculator Section Score (0-20): The raw score from the Math section where calculators are not allowed.
- Math – With Calculator Section Score (0-60): The raw score from the Math section where calculators are permitted.
Important Considerations:
This calculator provides an estimate. Factors like your pacing, performance on specific question types, guessing strategy, and even your physical and mental state on test day can influence your final score. For the most accurate assessment, focus on consistent practice and reviewing your mistakes. Many official SAT practice tests are available through the College Board and Khan Academy, which offer the most reliable practice material.
