I recently got a 32 on my ACT, but most of the schools I'm looking at primarily mention SAT scores. How does a 32 on the ACT convert to an SAT score?
A 32 on the ACT generally converts to an SAT score of around 1420-1440. Keep in mind that this is just an approximation, as the two tests have different structures and question types. However, this conversion should give you a rough idea of where you stand compared to SAT scores reported by the schools you're interested in. When researching colleges, you can look at their 25th-75th percentile ranges for both ACT and SAT scores to get a sense of the competitive range for admitted students.
