<p>Ok I was reading on the colegeboard site, how the SAT is scored. I noticed they said if you didnt answer a question. nothing is subtracted and nothing is added. So does it mean if I only answered one question, I get a perfect score? </p>

<p>Here's an extract from the collegeboard.com
How the Test is Scored
Raw vs. Scaled</p>

<p>In order to reach the number you see on your score report, two calculations must take place.</p>

<p>First, your "raw score" is calculated. This is the number of points you earned, based on the number of questions you answered correctly, minus a fraction of the number answered incorrectly. Questions you skipped are not counted and no points are subtracted for incorrect Student Produced Response math questions (grid-ins) on the SAT Reasoning Test.

<p>Each CORRECT answer received (+) 1 point</p>

<p>Each WRONG answer for a</p>

<pre><code>* Multiple-choice question: subtract (-) 1/4 of a point
* Student-produced response: no points subtracted
</code></pre>

<p>NO!!
your raw score would be 1, not 50 something and you would get a 210.</p>

<p>what an idiot</p>

<p>No. A lot of people misunderstand the scoring and don't realize that omitting a question is almost as bad as getting it wrong. Try scoring a practice test, and you'll see what I mean.</p>
