How to Determine an SAT Score

Administered by the College Board, the SAT Reasoning Test was created to test your overall knowledge of three sections: mathematics, critical reading and writing. While colleges and universities take your SAT scores into consideration, they also look at your involvement in school activities and overall high school GPA. After taking the four-hour exam, you will be able to determine your scores online in three weeks and by mail in five weeks.

Instructions

      Visit the College Board "Getting Your Scores" web page, sat.collegeboard.org/scores. Find your SAT test date from the chart and click on the "Available Online" button in the "Status" section of the chart. If your scores are not yet available online, check back later or wait until it arrives by mail in five weeks.

      Sign into your SAT account by entering your user-name and password. If you do not have a registered account, you can sign up with your personal information and the SAT receipt number you obtained when registering for the test.

    • 3

      Scroll over the "My SAT" tab across the top of the page and click on the "My Scores" option from the drop-down menu. If you have taken the SAT multiple times, select the most recent score from the list. The scaled scores for each of the three SAT sections should be listed on the results page. If you received your SAT score in the mail, the score of each section should be listed clearly across the top of the paper.

      Add up the three section scores together to determine your SAT score. Each section is graded out of 800, therefore a perfect score on the SAT test would be 2400. For example, if you received 750 on the math section, 670 on the critical reading section and 600 on the writing section, your SAT score would be 2020 (750 + 670 + 600 = 2020).
