| How do you read your scores? Your SSAT score report will provide detailed explanations to help you understand each of your scores, including Scaled Scores Verbal, Quantitative, Reading, and Total Scale for grades 5-7: 440-710 (V/Q/R), 1320-2130 (Total) Scale for grades 8-11: 500-800 (V/Q/R), 1500-2400 (Total) SSAT Percentile Ranks for each category The SSAT ranks (1-99%) compare your scores to those of other students who have taken the SSAT in the past three years. For example, if your Verbal SSAT Percentile is 65%, you scored equal or better in the Verbal section than 65% of students (of your gender and grade) who took the SSAT in the past three years. Estimated National Percentile Ranks (grades 5-9 only) The national ranks (1-99%) compare your performance to the national student population, not only students who have taken the SSAT. Predicted 12th Grade SAT Score (grades 7-10 only) How do schools use your scores? Schools use your scores in different ways: to estimate your ability to do work in a private school; to compare your performance with other applicants for admission or with your present academic record; and to help you improve skills prior to college admissions testing. Each school evaluates your scores according to its own standards and requirements. Please contact individual schools for more information. SSAT is a testing service and cannot provide individual score evaluation. |
