Estimate your Digital SAT score from your Reading and Writing and Math performance. Enter your section results to calculate your estimated total score on the 400–1600 SAT scale.
Enter your Reading and Writing and Math section scores to calculate your total SAT score.
Enter section scores from 200 to 800. Official Digital SAT scores are determined by College Board's scoring model, so this calculator combines section scores rather than converting raw correct-answer counts.
The Digital SAT has two scored sections: Reading and Writing, and Math. Each section is reported on a scale from 200 to 800 points.
Your total SAT score is the sum of the two section scores, producing an overall score from 400 to 1600.
For example, a Reading and Writing score of 650 and a Math score of 720 produce a total SAT score of 1370.
| Section | Score |
|---|---|
| Reading and Writing | 650 |
| Math | 720 |
The total SAT score is 1370 out of 1600. In this example, Math is the stronger section by 70 points.
| Score | Range |
|---|---|
| Reading and Writing | 200–800 |
| Math | 200–800 |
| Total SAT Score | 400–1600 |
The two section scores contribute equally to the total SAT score, so each section can account for up to half of the 1600-point total.
The Digital SAT is adaptive, so the relationship between the number of correct answers and the final section score is not represented by one universal raw-score conversion table.
This calculator therefore uses Reading and Writing and Math section scores directly rather than estimating an official SAT score from raw correct-answer counts.
Use official score reports or practice-test scoring information to determine your section scores, then enter them above to calculate the combined total.
A good SAT score depends on the colleges you are considering and the score range of admitted students at those schools.
In general, a higher SAT score gives you a stronger academic testing profile, but admissions decisions usually consider many other factors as well.
| Total SAT Score | General Interpretation |
|---|---|
| 1500–1600 | Very strong score range |
| 1400–1490 | Strong score range |
| 1200–1390 | Competitive for many colleges |
| 1000–1190 | Middle score range |
| Below 1000 | May be below the typical range at more selective schools |
Always compare your score with the admissions profile of the specific colleges you plan to apply to.
Two students can have the same total SAT score but very different section profiles.
| Reading & Writing | Math | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 700 | 700 | 1400 |
| 760 | 640 | 1400 |
| 640 | 760 | 1400 |
A balanced profile has similar scores in both sections. An uneven profile can highlight a stronger academic area, such as Math or Reading and Writing.
