Hey guys, quick question. What's the maximum score you can get on the SAT? Is it still 1600? Just want to set a realistic goal for myself.
Yes, you're correct. The highest score you can achieve on the SAT is 1600. The test is divided into two sections: Reading & Writing, and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 200-800, and the two section scores are added together to give you your total SAT score. Remember though, while aiming for a high score is important, setting realistic goals based on your past test performance and available study time is key to successful test preparation.
