I received a 2130 on the first go-around (680 M, 680 CR, 770 WRI), but that translates to a 1480 on the new scale (according to the CollegeBoard score converter).

*SAT score reflects the pre-March 2016 exam. To convert your scores to the redesigned exam, use CollegeBoard’s SAT Score Converter. GPA is based on academic courses only using an unweighted 4.0 scale."
So it seems that they DO use the converter.
