Candidates receiving the SAT score is the sum of your reading, writing and math scores. The essay section score is calculated separately. To calculate the section-wise score, the SAT Scoring Team collects the data of raw scores, i.e.) the number of correct answers in each section, and convert them to a scaled score of 200 to 800.

Candidates’ percentile rank in the SAT exam scores represents the percentage of students/candidates whose SAT score is either equal or lower than their score. For instance, if a student’s SAT score is 80th percentile, 80% of the students who took the SAT exam have achieved that score range or below.

Most institutions in the USA require candidates to submit their SAT score reports through the College Board.

The College Board team has a robust and systematic approach in calculating candidates’ test scores to ensure accuracy. In order to cross-verify test scores, candidates have access to the test score verification services, i.e.) Answer Services.

When candidates order answering service for their SAT results, based on the location and the time they had taken the test, they will receive either Student Answer Service (SAS) or Question-and-Answer Service (QAS)

Both SAS and QAS services can help students/candidates to have valuable insights to prepare better for retaking the SAT Exam. Candidates can apply for answer services when they register for the SAT Exam or after their SAT Exam Date.

The Question-and-Answer Format includes:

• A copy of a report demonstrating candidates’ answers and the SAT questions.
