How do you super score the new SAT?
If you get a
34 reading
37 writing on test A which is a critical reading score of 710
Then on test B you get
36 reading
33 writing
CR score of 690
Do they take the better CR score or do they break it down
So would it be 710 or 730
I’ve had the same question for a while now
Dang… yeah makes a big difference
Bump bc I really want an answer to this
No clue, but good question.
From what I have seen thus far, there are a lot of colleges which have said they will superscore the new SAT, but I have yet to see one that says exactly how it will do that. My guess is they will use only the two main 200-800 range scores, math and the combined score for reading /writing to superscore (there is no longer any singular score called “critical reading” but instead there is the “evidence based reading and writing” score), including because concordance tables CB created for comparing the new SAT to old SAT and to the ACT are using that method.
Penn 's policy, which I just saw, is doing what @drusba describes taking best evidence based reading and math section from multiple sittings. Note: no superscore will be done across old and new SATs.
They use the overall score. Not the subsection scores.
