"The most significant factor in interpreting SAT scores is the proportion of eligible students taking the exam - the participation rate. In general, the higher the percentage of students taking the test, the lower the average scores." College Board Press Release, August 28, 2001.
The SAT results are reported as the mean (average) scores for each section. SAT scores in each section range from 200 (lowest) to 800 (highest). |
