I took the SAT's not too long ago and this is what I recieved for scores...
Critical Reading 520
Math 440
Writing 530
How do I add these up to know my score?
Do you just add them all together?
Or is there some other crazy method to find out my score?
Please help. Thanks
also, you can divide your score by 3 and multiply by 2 (yes, it is the same answer as the one you would get w/ cross multiplication) and that would be your score equivalant on the old SAT (for the older people when you're sick of explaining the score difference.)
your score is 993.33...3

Well, the proper way to do that would be to add CR and Math together. Collegeboard even said that CR was comparable to the verbal section, and colleges treat CR and the old verbal section the same way. I don't know why you would try to use your writing score in any way to calculate a score to compare to a test without writing. Just add CR and Math.
Ah... a formula to change a three-test score to a two-test score. I see.
Edit: I was just curious because I've heard that the new test is easier than the old test, although I've never seen any figures to back this up. I understand what was meant now.
well, I am assuming that the old SAT verbal section had some elements of writing (I took the new one my junior year, 1st time), therefore allowing the formula I posted earlier to be justifiable, thats all. But thanks for putting the "official/proper" way on here also bigmrpig.
*excuse the humble newbie*
so i was wondering, do I just add the first 3 sections (1940) or do I also add the multiple choice and essay sections? I think the multiple choice and essay scores are just sub-sections so I'm guessing I don't actually add those to my total. Just wondering.
