<p>My score report:</p>

<hr>

<p>Verbal Score 752
(Personal Score Range: 731 - 773, SSAT Percentile 94%)</p>

<p>Math Score 791
(Personal Score Range: 770 - 800, SSAT Percentile 99%)</p>

<p>Reading Score 704
(Personal Score Range: 683 - 725, SSAT Percentile 85%)</p>

<p>Total Score 2247
(Personal Score Range: NA, SSAT Percentile 97%)</p>

<p>do the schools only look at percentiles? and do they look at just the overall, or also the individual ones? (i'm applying to hotchkiss, choate, lawrenceville and peddie). i'm worried about my reading score.</p>

<p>also, i heard that if you retake the test, it will say something like 'multiple tests taken', no matter how many times you took the test - so it might not be a good idea to retake. but i'm not sure =/</p>

<p>your score is HUNDRED PERCENT fine. I personally guarantee.</p>

<p>if you are rejected to any schools, it will never be because of your SSAT. 97% is a GREAT/excellent score.</p>

<p>Schools are known to have a threshold, most schools threshold is believed to be about 85%. Anything higher doesn’t really matter. Your scores are fine.</p>
