<p>I just read where someone scored a 2235 SSAT and received a total percentile score of the 96th percentile.</p>
<p>My daughter got the exact same score (2235) but scored in the 93rd total percentile. Does anyone know why one percentile was higher than the other with the exact same score?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Could be a different grade level. Same tests are given to more than one grade level and the percentile varies depending on whether the student is in a higher or lower grade.</p>
<p>Or different sex - girls are compared to girls, and boys to boys</p>
<p>I didn't mention gender because for the same score, girls are in a higher percentile. that's not the case here.</p>
