What did you score on the SAT ?

Question

When you were in high school?

Answer 1

I'm still in school, and I got a 2060. Hoping that'll get me in where I want, but who knows?

Answer 2

Keeping in mind this was the old SAT....  I scored a 1380 (which at the time was just math and verbal), but I also took the SAT-II Writing and scored a 740...so if I understand the new scoring system, that's a 2120.

Answer 3

I agree with the first person, I do not think that the SAT, or any standardized test, is the best way to determine someone's ability to succeed in college.

anyway, to actually answer the question, I got a 1910

Answer 4

SAT- 2070 with 12/12 on Writing

ACT- 32

Standardized tests are lame.

Answer 5

When I was in 8th grade for CTY, I got a 1570. How the heck do you get a 2000 in 8th grade? I'm going into 9th.

Answer 6

First off, SAT are absolute c**p. They do not reflect your intelligence but how well you take THAT particular test. I scored an 1830 with a perfect essay score, however when I took the ACT I got a 32. Obviously, I ended up sending in my ACT scores to colleges instead. Turns out, I got into a top tier liberal arts college. And thank goodness I never have to take the SAT's again.

Answer 7

I got a 1260 out of 2400 (first try!!!), but gunna take again before winter strikes and have to send my FAFSA and Applications to my colleges!!!!

and I admire all those people who got at least 1900 and above or 2000 above I was I trade their scores for mine lol heheh ^_^ sorry the SAT 1 is a pain, and I bet the SAT II Subject test is pain in the a**

Answer 8

I'm with the other posters. All you have to do to get a great score is learn how the test makers think, which is pretty easy with enough practice. It's not a measure of intelligence. There are too many smart people I know with mediocre or slightly above average scores. That said, I got a 2290 in June. The thing is, I don't think I'm anywhere near as smart as the percentile that goes with that score suggests, and it definitely doesn't take into account my below average intellect for common sense. ;-) Recommendations, transcripts, and essays are so much more accurate. I'm with Wake Forest and Tufts on abolishing these things... even if my own score will help me.

Answer 9

My parents made me take the SATs when I was in 8th grade for CTY and I got a 2000.

I took the PSATs as a sophomore and got a 228, but I didn't study.

I don't think SATs reflect intelligence and anyone who tries hard enough can get close to a full score.
