Understanding Your SAT Scores

The SAT consists of two main sections: Math and Evidence-Based Reading & Writing (EBRW). Each section is scored on a scale of 200-800, with the total score ranging from 400 to 1600. The average SAT score typically falls around 1050, with competitive colleges often looking for scores above 1200.
