I’m taking a chance that maybe a parent on here could help me out. My 6th-grade son took the Princeton Review practice middle level SSAT test. His scaled raw scores are math, 28, reading 26 and 38 verbal. I’ve searched online for a chart or calculator to understand the raw scores like they have for the SAT but haven’t been able to find one. Calling Princeton Review didn’t help-they sent me to the SSAT website. I did a search on CC and I gather the books used to include a chart but the 2018 edition does not. He’s not applying to schools until high school, but I hoped to get some sort of idea of how he’d do now on the test, with no preparation. I realize that nobody could tell me exactly what percentile these raw scores would be on an actual test, but if anyone has a ballpark guess and wouldn’t mind sharing, I’d appreciate hearing from you.
I don’t know about the Princeton Review chart, but I used the first SSAT chart that popped up which gives a score of 2115, which is right around the 80th percentile mark. Don’t count me on it though, the chart might differ between companies.
@basil1, according to the conversion chart in the 2016 Princeton Review, for SSAT Middle Level these raw scores correspond to approximately 50 percentile quantitative, 65-70 percentile reading, and 80 percentile verbal.
Thank you both! I appreciate it. I don’t know why I had so much trouble finding the chart online.
