What's the maximum score one can get on the SAT?

I know, I know, it seems like a silly question but just to confirm - what is the absolute highest score you can possibly get on the SAT test? Just want to set my goals right.

The top score you can achieve on the SAT is 1600. This is a cumulative score from two core sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Math. Each section is scored between 200 and 800, so achieving 800 in both will lead to a perfect score of 1600. It's great that you're aiming high, but remember to focus not just on achieving a top score, but also on developing a strong understanding of the content and refining your test-taking strategies. Best of luck with your study!
