Estimate your SAT score
Reading and Writing has 54 questions and Math has 44, split into two modules each. Enter the total you missed in each section across both modules. If you are not sure which Module 2 you got, leave it on Harder: a section score above 600 almost always means the harder module.
Estimate, not an official College Board conversion. Real scores can move 10–20 points either way depending on the test form. Percentile: College Board SAT User Group, rounded down to the nearest 50 points.
SAT score chart: questions wrong vs. score
On the Digital SAT, your Module 1 result decides whether Module 2 is harder or easier, and the same number of mistakes is worth a different score on each path. That is why there are two charts. Each row shows how many questions you can miss across the whole section and still land on that score.

College Board does not publish a raw-to-scaled conversion for the Digital SAT. We built these charts from the official scoring tables for paper Practice Tests 4–11, adjusted to the Digital SAT's question counts and two-module structure, and checked them against published Bluebook practice test analyses. Expect real scores to move 10–20 points either way by test form.
Which Module 2 did you get?
Bluebook does not tell you during the test, and the score report does not say either. You can work it out from the section score:
- Above 600: almost certainly the harder Module 2. The easier path rarely goes this high.
- 560 to 600: either path is possible. If you remember missing only a handful of questions, it was probably the harder one.
- 550 or below: either path. On your next test, cutting careless mistakes in Module 1 matters more than anything else.
Students on the easier path have usually missed about 12 Reading and Writing or 11 Math questions in Module 1 already. The fix is not harder questions but fewer slips on the medium ones, which is what our guide to the test structure and our module-by-module practice focus on.
What College Board's official tables show
The only raw-to-scaled tables College Board publishes are for its paper practice tests. Those tests are not adaptive and have more questions (66 Reading and Writing, 54 Math), so each question weighs a little less. They are still the best evidence for how much the top of the scale moves from one test form to another.
| Questions wrong | Reading and Writing (66) | Math (54) |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 790–800 | 790–800 |
| 1 | 770–800 | 770–800 |
| 2 | 750–790 | 750–800 |
| 3 | 730–780 | 730–800 |
| 4 | 720–770 | 710–790 |
| 5 | 710–770 | 700–780 |
Three wrong in Reading and Writing ranged from 730 on one form to 780 on another. Math is more forgiving at the top: on most forms, two wrong could still score 800.
Why the same number wrong can give different scores
- Eight questions are not scored. Each module includes two pretest questions that do not count, so 50 Reading and Writing and 40 Math questions are scored. You cannot tell which ones they are.
- Questions carry different weight. College Board scores the Digital SAT with item response theory, so two students with the same number correct can get different scores depending on which questions they missed.
- Test forms differ. As the official tables above show, the same raw score can be worth 20 to 50 points more or less on a different form.
How many questions can you miss for your target score?
These assume similar scores in both sections and the harder Module 2 in each. Percentiles are College Board's SAT User Group percentiles.
| Target total | Reading and Writing | Math | Percentile |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1600 | 800 (0 wrong) | 800 (0 wrong) | 99+ |
| 1550 | 770 (2–3 wrong) | 780 (1–2 wrong) | 99 |
| 1500 | 750 (4–5 wrong) | 750 (4–5 wrong) | 97 |
| 1450 | 720 (7–8 wrong) | 730 (6–7 wrong) | 95 |
| 1400 | 700 (9–10 wrong) | 700 (8–9 wrong) | 93 |
| 1300 | 650 (14–15 wrong) | 650 (11–12 wrong) | 85 |
| 1200 | 600 (18–19 wrong) | 600 (15 wrong) | 75 |
FAQ
Is this SAT score calculator official?
No. College Board does not publish a conversion table for the Digital SAT. This calculator uses Solo Prep's estimate, built from College Board's official paper practice test scoring tables and adjusted to the Digital SAT format. Real scores can differ by 10–20 points.
How many questions can you miss on the SAT and still get a 1500?
About 4–5 in each section if both Module 2s are the harder ones, for roughly 750 + 750. You can trade between sections, for example 2 wrong in Math and 7 in Reading and Writing.
Does one wrong answer drop you below 800?
Usually to 780–790, but not always. If the question you missed was one of the unscored pretest questions, it does not count, and some test forms still give 800 for one wrong.
What is the highest score on the easier Module 2?
College Board does not publish a cap. Analyses of Bluebook practice tests put the top of the easier path at roughly 560–600 per section, so scoring above 600 effectively requires the harder Module 2.
How accurate are SAT score calculators?
Any calculator, including this one, gives a range. The real score depends on which questions you missed and on the test form. A full-length timed practice test scored by an adaptive engine is a better predictor than a count of mistakes.
