Scaled SAT scores and corresponding percentiles?\nCan I have a list that shows the various scaled SAT scores and their roughly corresponding percentiles? All info for new SAT only, please? Thanks!

You should be able to find this at the SAT reporting website CollegeBoard National Reports.  They like to brag.  I am sure you should be able to get up to date info.  I found a link to the archives.  I hope this helps.

You might want to buy US News' or Newsweek's annual college report from the local bookstore. It offers comprehensive statistics on the average GPA and test scores of American colleges, as well as guides on how to prepare for college and choose colleges.\n\nCombined SAT I scores range from 600 - 2400. 2150 and above is normally considered a competitive score. Like the SAT I subsections, each of the three SAT II scores  ranges from 200-800. Some colleges may ask for more or less than 3 SAT II tests, or may require a specific SAT II test. 650+ is generally considered competitive.\n\nBeing accepted into college really depends on other factors including your GPA, extracurricular activities, goal, and of course, the college you're applying to.

THe link below allows you to do an advanced search for psychology programs in the US- then you can organize the listings as you would want- I organized them from highest to lowest SAT scores accepted and therefor the top schools on the list are probably among the best!\n\nI think this is an awesome reference tool, good luck!

All Universities in the U.S. have the right to accept or reject any application for whatever reason they see fit.  The SAT is just a score they can use to judge you against other possible students.  Normally (but not always) with a high enough score you will be more apt to be accepted.  Often grades and extra-curricular activites play just as large of role as any test scores.

Nah, that was mostly  for Analogies, which I gather the SAT doesn't include anymore.\n\nYou wouldn't be squandering your time though; it's always laudable to augment your vocabulary.

Hey, I just took my Sat in may and im in canada..wehn i got my scores back they give a percentil of everyone who worte the test i think....i don;t think they divide it internationally.\n\nA good SAT score I think is about 1800/2400 but it depends on where u go and what the basic requirement is\ngood luck;)

I'm not aware of any such link sorry. But what I know is, most colleges do not have a cutoff point for the SATs. So with your above average score, you should be able to apply to most colleges easily.

Actually that other choice is based on the old SAT, and since you obviously took the new one, it does not necessarily apply now.  But again, as long as you have a good GPA, you should have a good shot of getting into a school that like Central WA, which does not seem to have overly competitive admissions, you should get in.  Try adding your Math and Critical Reading scores together and apply them to the table, then apply it to the chart at http://www.cwu.edu/~cwuadmis/pdf/ai-table.pdf and you should have a better idea

Well, your score is probably about average for the new 2400-point scale, but that isn't really the concern. Colleges understand that it's just one test on one day. What's A LOT more important is your GPA, in which classes you did well, community service and extracurricular activities; your essay is also important. But just so you're safe, definitely apply to a public school in your state that isn't really hard to get into. I go to a public university and I was astounded at the quality of education I'm getting here; I love it so much. So good luck and keep your mind open!

my SAT scores were very high, but i won't put them here.\ni find that what helps even more than studying is reading.  you can internalize grammatical structure a lot better when you read it in a book instead of in a study guide.  no study guide is a silver bullet- but i took the SAT practice tests from the college board book (about 5 of them) and got 99th percentile.  i am very much against SAT prep courses; i think they defeat the purpose of the test and give great advantages to the rich.\ni applaud your cause.

Hi there, \n\nYou didn't mention in which country you stay. Anyways, if you are speaking of SAT, I suggest you go for KAPLAN SAT Comprehensive program (Book+Online Course). More information is available at http://www.kaptest.com/\nPrinceton Review is also good.\n\nHope this helps. If not, I'd be glad to assist you further. Bye!!\n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny

I have heard some critics say that the SAT and ACT tests are unfair to minority students, but I have not heard anything about them getting extra points simply due to the fact that they hold minority status.  In all truth, the people telling you this may be spreading a rumor more than anything else.\n\nYou can always research the matter online by using a search engine, and draw your own conclusions from there.

normally when taking a test (including the SAT), you are encouraged to use the test (in this case, the quote) to pass the test.  As long as you provide more information, adn make sure you quote it (""), it's fine.  ^_^  \n\nGood luck on the test!!!!

There's some interesting answers here. I'm a current student at Harvard, so I'll try to elaborate.\n\n1) What about everything else? Scores don't get people into Harvard. Promise, talent, and passions do. I know people with rather low scores that got in because they are the best in what they do, and people with perfect scores that didn't because they had nothing else that was interesting about them.\n\n2) GPA. What's it out of? If it's out of 4.0, is it possible at your high school to get higher than a 4.0 through Honors or AP classes? If it's an unweighted 3.9 / 4.0 (all As = 4.0), then that's a great GPA. If it's a weighted 3.9 / 4.0 (AP and Honors As = 5.0), then it's decent. If it's out of 5.0, I'm not so sure about Harvard...\n\n3) SAT. What's it out of? 2400? 1600? If it's out of 1600, that's great score, well within the average range at Harvard. If it's out of 2400, I'm sorry...unless you have some spectacular extracurricular accomplishments, it will be extremely difficult to get in. \n\nGood luck, and feel free to update the question so I can provide you with a better response.

I bought an SAT book thing by Collegeboard from Barnes and Noble. Collegeboard makes the test so I'd think that they're reliable.\n\nhttp://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780874477184&itm=1
