SAT Score Calculator
The SAT Score Calculator is a tool used to estimate your SAT score based on raw scores. It calculates scores for Math, Evidence-Based Reading, and Writing sections. The formula uses raw scores, which represent the number of correct answers, and converts them to scaled scores. This tool is beneficial for students preparing for the SAT as it helps them analyze performance and set improvement goals.
Formula for SAT Score Calculation
