SAT Composite Score Calculator

Calculate SAT composite score from Evidence-Based and Math section scores.

Formula

Total SAT Score = EBRW Section + Math Section
  • Each section ranges from 200 to 800.
  • Total composite score ranges from 400 to 1600.
  • Percentiles are approximate and vary by test year.

Example

Inputs
  • Evidence-Based Reading & Writing (200-800): 600
  • Math Section (200-800): 700

EBRW 600 + Math 700 = 1300 total, roughly the 85th percentile.
