Calculated SAT total score
—
Enter the section scores and select Calculate.
Methodology and limitations
This calculation is exact only when you enter section scores from an official score report or a clearly identified practice estimate. The total is Reading and Writing plus Math. The real digital SAT uses adaptive scoring and item response theory, so this tool does not convert correct-answer counts into a claimed official score.
Can correct answers determine an exact score?
No. Question characteristics, response patterns, and adaptive routing affect digital SAT scoring. Use College Board materials for practice-test score ranges.
Official sources
- Score Structure for K-12 Educators — SAT total equals Reading and Writing plus Math; each section is 200-800 and total is 400-1600.
- How Are Scores Calculated? — Digital SAT scoring uses multistage adaptive testing and item response theory; correct-answer count alone does not determine one exact score.
