I recently got my SAT score. Is a score of 1190 any good?

lol...if you have to ask, you must not be too concerned with the results of the test. BTW, 2400 is a perfect score.

NOPE, no such place. just take it easy, SAT is not all that bad.  besides you can take it more than once if you want, and the higher scores count

That may not be that great. According to Collegeboard.com, the new system's essay section is also graded out of 800, so add that to the old SAT's 800 for math and 800 for verbal, the 1610 is out of a possible 2400. Previously 1600 was the highest possible score on the old SATs.\n\nI think the only way to know for sure how good a 1610 is would be to compare it to your percentile—based on how the rest of the nation scored.\n\nLets do some comparisons to current scores:\n\nI know that the University of Maryland prefers to admit very few students that scored under a 1200 on the old SATs. That's a 75%. The equivalent score on the new SATs would be an 1800.\n\nA 1610 is approximately 67%. That would equate to, on the old scale, barely more than 1070. I mean, most students a few years ago would be at least glad they "broke a thousand," but depending on what school they wanted to get into, it may not have been something to jump for joy about.\n\nOf course, the new SAT system being so untested means that the two scoring systems may not line up so easily. They may be grading the written portion much harder or grading the entire test on a harder scale. Only time will tell.

I got 4,5,5 in my year 6 SATs, but that didn't get me anywhere really. Don't worry about getting a high grade, just do your best and think of it as useful exam practice for when the important ones come up.

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!

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.

Depends if your taking the new SATs...if you are, then the max is 2400. If your taking the old ones, then it is 1600.

I really think they focus on your GPA and SAT scores.  I was accepted with a 3.8 GPA (through my Junior year anyway).  I also got an SAT score of 1190.  I didn't do many sports or extracurricular stuff, but I did have a part time job.

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.).

Considering the New SAT is out of a score of 2400, you really should be shooting for anything above 600 in each section. 600 math, 600 critical reading, and 600 writing. You should really consider taking a Kaplan Prep course. If not, feel free to register for free 45 days of online access to our SAT quizbank site.

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.

Yes, it is a good score.  It is above average.  The range from 85 to 115 is low average to high average.  Remember though that if it came from an on line test they score higher than the real IQ tests.  An IQ score is only a number.  It is not who you are.  Much more important than your IQ score is how you use it.

A 1500 is definitely an average score. The mean scores for each section is roughly 500 apiece, making the average total score around 1500. Thus, your score is not great, but not the worst.

I can't imagine what your SAT scores are going to look like.  Do they come in negative numbers now?
