ACT/SAT Equivalency: How Does a 33 ACT Score Compare to the SAT?

Hey there, got my latest ACT results and scored a 33! I'm somewhat curious about how this might equate to an SAT score. Anyone got an idea about the conversion? Thanks.

Congratulations on your ACT score! A 33 is a fantastic result.

In terms of SAT equivalency, it's not a direct 1:1 calculation. However, according to most concordance tables that translate ACT scores into their SAT equivalents, a 33 on the ACT is generally equivalent to an SAT score between 1450 and 1490.

Bear in mind, though, that every college may interpret these scores slightly differently and the conversion is not exact. What's most important is that a 33 ACT places you comfortably above average and should be competitive at even the most selective institutions. Keep up the great work!
