How to use it
- Count right answers in Reading and Writing (out of 54) and in Math (out of 44).
- Choose which second module you got in each section — your Bluebook practice score report shows it.
- Read your estimated total (400–1600) and section scores (200–800).
The formula
Total = Reading and Writing (200–800) + Math (200–800)
Each section's score depends on right answers, which questions they were, and the module 2 route.
Good to know
- There's no penalty for guessing, so never leave a question blank.
- Some questions in each module are unscored pretest items, so the same raw score can convert differently.
- For the most accurate number, take a full Bluebook practice test — it uses the real scoring.
Questions
How many questions can I miss for a 1400?
Roughly 6–8 per section on the harder module 2 route, but it varies by test form and by which questions you miss.
Why can't I get above about 600 in a section?
If module 1 goes poorly, you get the easier module 2, and the section score is capped well below 800. Getting most of module 1 right is the key to a high score.
What is a good SAT score?
About 1030 is close to the national average. 1200 puts you above roughly three quarters of test takers, and 1400+ is competitive for selective colleges.
