Hey everyone! So I got a 28 on my ACT and I'm wondering what that would be equivalent to on the SAT? Is there a conversion chart I could use to figure this out? Thanks in advance!
Hello! Great question. Yes, there is a concordance table that you can use to figure out the equivalent SAT score for your ACT score. Based on the latest ACT-SAT concordance table provided by the ACT and the College Board, an ACT score of 28 is approximately equivalent to an SAT score of 1300-1320.
Keep in mind these equivalencies are only approximate, but they can still help you get a sense of where you stand with your ACT score in relation to the SAT. The final admissions decision at a college or university will depend on several factors beyond test scores, such as your GPA, course rigor, extracurriculars, essays, and so on. However, having this rough idea of the SAT equivalent can help you in evaluating which schools to apply to and setting potential score goals for yourself if you decide to take the SAT as well.
Best of luck!
