Work out sat score estimate instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Each SAT section is reported on a 200-800 scale, giving a 400-1600 total. The relationship between raw accuracy and scaled score is slightly concave — early correct answers gain more scale points than the last few — which this estimate approximates with an exponent below one.
