What is an SAT superscore?

An SAT superscore combines your highest section scores earned on different test dates. For example, a college may combine your strongest Reading and Writing score from one date with your strongest Math score from another.

What SAT score range can I enter?

Each section accepts scores from 200 to 800 in 10-point increments. The resulting SAT total ranges from 400 to 1600.

Does every college superscore the SAT?

No. Colleges set their own testing and superscoring policies, and those policies can change. Confirm the current policy on each college's official admissions website.

Should I send every SAT score?

That depends on the college's score-use policy and the score-reporting options available to you. Check each institution's official requirements before submitting scores.

Is this an official College Board score report?

No. This calculator is a planning tool based only on the scores you enter. Use your official College Board account and each college's admissions policy when applying.

About This SAT Superscore Calculator

This SAT Superscore Calculator combines the highest Reading and Writing score and highest Math score from the SAT test dates you enter. Because the two best sections can come from different dates, the result may be higher than any single-test total.

However, colleges decide whether and how they superscore submitted SAT results. Therefore, use this estimate to compare test dates, then verify the current score-use policy directly with every college on your application list.
