SAT Scores
Your total SAT score ranges from 400 to 1600 and combines two section scores of 200 to 800 each. Scores usually appear in your College Board account within about two weeks, and you can send four free score reports until nine days after the test. These guides explain percentiles, superscoring, score choice and how to send results to colleges.
