What is the Maximum Possible SAT Score A Student Gets?

The Indian/NRI students are curious about how perfect they need to be to fetch the high score on their SAT exam.

Do you know how many people get perfect scores every year?

Well! You will get these answers throughout this article. Hence, keep reading until ends to fetch the tactics to hike up your SAT score this year.

 

What is the Perfect SAT Score?

The fact is the highest possible SAT score that you can score is 1600 points. Hence, individually, you need 800 on each i.e. Math, and Evidenced-Based Reading and Writing (EBRW).

But guys, it’s quite possible to score the highest one on your SAT. As per the College Board's most recent total group report, only around 7% of students scored between 1400 and 1600 among a total of 2.1 million students took the SAT in 2018.

Moreover, as per the most recent SAT percentiles, less than 1% of aspirants scored in the range of 1500-1600. The fact is 1% is similar to about 21,000 students, so you can consider that less than 21,000 students scored 1550 to 1600 on the SAT in 2018.

If you have decided to go the miles above, then you should know the raw scores that you need for each section on the SAT along with tips to reach towards your destination.

If you want to translate your raw score in each section to a Scaled Score, then you can take the help of two charts with the raw score to scaled score conversions. Kindly note that both these charts come from official SAT practice tests.

Again, note that since your Reading and Writing scores are integrated for a single EBRW score out of 800, every raw score first gets translated into a test score (out of 40) and after that to a combined score out of 800. To know thoroughly about it, let’s check out the following tables:

    We stay in Oman (Muscat) and looking for a SAT preparation / SAT coaching in Muscat. We tried SAT earlier also but could not get enough marks to get the desired college. We have also planned that along with SAT test we will also prepare for SAT subject test since this can get us admission through CIWG / DASA scheme also. So now we would like to prepare for both SAT and SAT Subject Test (SAT 2). Your advice is also highly appreciated if you let us know if we should appear through DASA or CIWG. Which one will be beneficial?

    Finally keep us posted with SAT course structure, fee, admission requirements, starting and completion date & SAT study time table.

    Looking forward for your response.
