I got a 1820 on my Sat 1 test, is that a good or bad score?

It is a high score. Sixteen hundred to twenty four hundred is in the high range. Congratulations!

C, C, C, Just take a guess, I did! You'll do fine, on the SAT. The more you question yourself about it, the worse you will probably do. Good Luck!

Neither, actually.  Your test scores are only one of a number of things that the college/university will consider in relations to your admissions.  For more information, check out my article on The SAT and Admissions (go to http://collegeuniversity.suite101.com/article.cfm/TheSATandAdmissions) in the college/university section of suite101.com.\n\nBest of luck1

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!

Your score is not the only deciding factor. I would say a 600 is the least score you could have. Unless you have a co -signer.

Not well.  720 on PSAT's and 860 on SAT's.  I felt as though I should not even go to college.  However, I did, and it went very well.  I graduated with a 3.5 GPA in economics, have a job paying over 70K a year and moving up.  SAT's mean something, but not everything... you can make it no matter what.  I did!

That's great! It translates to about 1450 or so on the old SATs, if that helps. Most scholarships haven't necessarily adapted to this score though, so if you see a request for the score out of 1600, add the scores from the Verbal and Math sections.

1220 without the writing test is a good score. A rough guide is that a 508 is the median score for critical reading and 520 for math, so a median score would be 1030. You need to look at your score report for the percentile rank to tell you how well you did in comparison to others (a percentile rank is a score indicating how well you did compared to others who took the test--a percentile rank of 83 means you scored as well or better than 83 out of 100 students who took the test).\n\nFor the ACT, a 28 is a percentile rank of 93, which means that you scored as well or higher than 93 out of 100 students who took the test. This is a very good score.\n\nNice job!

I think you need to take the test again and try to improve your score. With 2060, I've been told I have a fighting chance at one of the top 20 schools. My percentiles were both in the mid to high 90s, so it's more the percentile that matters than the score, I think. Try to get your percentiles at least above 85. Many scholarships require at least 1900 as a SAT score... all the ones I've looked at recently, at least. \n\nGood luck. And btw, don't listen to the person who said you'll be driving a garbage truck with a SAT score like yours. SAT scores are not the only thing that colleges look at, and plus, your SAT score doesn't judge the content of your character. It's more important to be a god person than to be a high test scorer. SAT scores don't judge your success rate in either college or in the work-force, and that has been statistically proven.

that's an awful score, considering it's out of 2400\n\non the old scale, thats about a 700 out of 1600.  i'm not even joking\n\ngood luck getting into a decent college with that.

the sat goes to 2400 now, i didnt even know that. I thought it still went to 1600 in which case a 1570 would put you in the category of "genius".

It depends on your other stuff.  SAT scores are only one portion of the application.  You have outside actitivies and all that.  On the old exam, you would probably want to get at least 1500.  Even a 1600 didn't guarantee anything obviously.  Translated to the new score, that's about 2250.  You can get in with lower obviously if you have outstanding something else (sports, winning national or international competitions, etc.).

do good is all I know.  The test is really long.  When I took it I remember that it wasn't that hard I got a 99% or something.

a score of 115 is over the top of the bell curve well enough to be considered very good. \n\nIf you do not know what a bell curve is please go to your councilor and ask them. they can draw it out for you and explain what it is and how you place on the curve.\n\nAnd oh yes, Keep up the good work....

The MAT scaled scores currently range from 200 to 600 with a mean (average) of 400. So a score of 363 is somewhat below the average score. In order to know just how much below average this score represents you need to know the standard deviation of the test to see if it 363 is greater than one standard deviation below the norm. Otherwise it would fall within the normal range.\n\nYour personal score report should also have given you a percentile rank, which tells you how you did in comparison with others who took the test. This is sometimes easier to understand than standard scores. For example, a percentile rank of 45 means that you scored as high or higher than 45 out of 100 people who took the test.

a 1420/1600 is really good! You'd have a solid enough score to apply to the top 25 nationwide schools, and even some Ivies

With an SAT score of 1570, I have to think many schools would take a "chance" on you despite failing history. Take a summer course to pass it, and apply wherever you like.\n\n(EDIT: Well, I didn't realize the SAT changed its cumulative scoring. However, your score would be roughly akin to a total of 1046 under the old format - not great, but not exactly disqualifying you from college, either. You should definitely see about taking a summer history course unless a college will let you take a remedial course as a condition of acceptance. If your GPA is otherwise OK, you can still get into a college - maybe you could do 2 years at a community college and transfer if necessary. Good luck.)
