SSAT Calculations

Prep School Admissions

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I just got my SSAT scores back and my percentiles are extremely low compared to many of you all. I see 90+ percentiles everywhere and I was wondering which ones they are referring to. On my score report, I have scaled scores and something called the SSAT reference information.</p>

<p>Is my "percentile":
1. Scaled score/800 x100 (total score/2400 x100)
or
2. Percentile on the SSAT Refence Information</p>

<p>Thank you all!</p>

<li> It’s the percentile compared to test takers of grade and gender, not the percentage out of 2400. The reference lists the average scores for grade and the subtest and overall percentile.<br></li>
