What did you score on your SSAT?

I scored 99% overall, and in the high 90's in the specific subjects. What did you get??

Hey, Mburghopeful12! Read this thread:

Just got my SSAT scores back; tell your own scores to compare scores:percentile?

I have a question though. What exactly is the point of this thread? Are you just curious to know other's scores? Or are you trying to compare yourself to other applicants? (Not a criticism. I'm asking a sincere question.)

Congrats on your score! Good Luck!...

I am middle of the road on grades at my school and I didn't know anyone else who took the SSAT, so I was wondering if this was ok/good/great..I'm just curious.... Sorry.

Wow, Mburghopeful12, you've got nothing to be sorry about! Unless you know a lot of kids who took the SSAT - or have spent hours on CC - how would you know this??? Perfectly reasonable question . . . and the answer is that you did really well - congratulations!

And both starkali and EnemyOfTheSun know better than to jump on a new CC'er like that . . . and they both owe you an apology!

Mercersburg is a really awesome school by the way - I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Well, Mburghopeful12. I apologize for being a jerk earlier, but please remember that there are some CC'ers who might not have gotten a score as superb as yours, and they definitely do not need any more reasons for insecure feelings at this stressed-out time right before March 10.

I apologize for responding in a defensive manner. I wasn't aware that you are knew to the process, and that you have very few people to compare your scores to. I understand that you most likely, just wanted to see how you "stacked up to other applicants", and weren't necessarily trying to be arrogant. I've already said congratulations, and I will say it again-- CONGRATS! I would just ask that you be a little more conscious of how others may feel towards a thread like this, especially considering that not everyone scored as well as you did. Anyways, GOOD LUCK!

However, on another note, I would like to remind dodgersmom, that she tends to respond in a very similar manner... Also, I don't even feel that my post was THAT BAD. I gave a her a link to a thread that is very similar. I also asked her, what her motive was for creating a thread like this... Was it really that bad? (I mean seriously, I'm not being sarcastic or facetious)

If you look at the percentile, you will see how you scored compared to everyone who took the test.

99% is the highest score possible.
