<p>I took my SSATs two years ago, in 8th grade, and scored within the 99th percentile. Based on my SSAT score, my SAT scores were predicted to fall within the 790-800 range for all categories. However, I took an informal, brief, practice SAT and scored well below that! I don't remember precisely, but the scores were all somewhere in the 600s. Are the SSAT predicted range score accurate? I did study quite a bit for the SSAT and not at all for the SAT (yet!), could that be the reason there is such a disparity?</p>
<p>Honestly, don’t count on different tests that you took two years ago as a definite showing of what score you will receive. The SAT definitely takes practice, and if you buy the blue book, you will see exactly how your score stacks up.</p>
<p>Plus, it’s pretty difficult to score in the 790-800 range for all categories. Few people receive perfect scores on the SAT.</p>
