The maximum score on the SAT is a 1600. Out of the two million students who take the test every year, only about 500 get the highest possible SAT score. This elusive perfect score catapults you to the top of high school academic achievement and can be a big boost to your college applications. I scored perfect scores on the SAT. I actually scored two perfect scores —a 1600 in 2004 when I was in high school, and a 2400 in March 2014 when I took it ten years later.

Most highly selective colleges remain temporarily test-optional. Emphasizing test scores can impede efforts to maintain economic and racial diversity. When the COVID-19 pandemic upended higher education in 2020, one of the monumental changes was the widespread suspension of standardized testing.
