Choose your method and enter inputs
Add SAT section scores or calculate a score range from official paper Practice Tests 4-11.
Choose the calculation mode or grading scale, then replace the example inputs with your own values. Check the credits, weights or selected scoring profile before calculating.
Formula and methodology
Total = Reading and Writing + Math. Paper practice totals add lower and upper section bounds separately.
The calculation breakdown lists what was counted and which rules were applied. Data-backed results identify their source and version; changing inputs clears a previous result so it cannot be mistaken for a new calculation.
Worked example
Known section scores of 650 Reading and Writing and 700 Math give a total of 1350.
Assumptions and limitations
The adaptive digital SAT cannot be scored exactly from the number of correct answers. Paper-practice ranges apply only to the selected test.
Check the result's method and linked source. A practice profile or planning estimate should be interpreted within its stated assumptions.
