act/sat

<p>i just started taking act practice tests and i'm not sure what the scores really mean since i'm used to the sats. how do u compare act scores to sats? obviously 36 would be like 2400. what would a 2100 be equivalent to? 2200?</p>

<p>Its is really hard right now to make conversions with the tests because the new SAT is well...new.</p>

<p>Any who I suppose you could do this: 2100/2400 X 36 = 31.5---> 32</p>

<p>2200/2400 X 36 = 33</p>

<p>Not the best way to do conversions, but I have no other real way of figuring it out.</p>

<p>that doesnt work because of the bell curve and scaling issues. i would convert the new sat score into an old one by proportions and then use the universal table to convert scores. a 2100 would be about a 1400, which would be a high 31 or low 32</p>

<p>2100=~1400 old sat</p>

<p>ACT equivalent: 31 (just barely) - 32</p>
