SAT I

What is SAT I ?

What is the pass mark on SAT I ?

How does the student register for SAT I ?

How many chances does the student get ?

How is the total percentage calculated ?

Calculation of Total Percentage

GPA / 800 x 40/100 = (X)%

+

SAT I / 2400 x 60/100 = (Y)%

(X)% + (Y)% = Total Percentage

Example

Student scored 700 / 800 at school

(highest subjects from grade 11 and 12)

Student scored 1450 on SAT I

700 / 800 x 40/100 = 35%

1450 / 2400 x 60/100 = 36.25%

35% + 36.25% = 71.25% Total Percentage

SAT II

What are the subjects of SAT II ?

What is the pass mark on SAT II ?

How and when does the student register for SAT II ?

How many chances does the student get ?

How is SAT II calculated into the total percentage ?

Example Student scored 700 / 800 at school (highest subjects from

grade

11 and 12) Student scored 1450 on SAT I Student scored 1100 on SAT II

700 / 800 x 40/100 = 35%

1450 / 2400 x 60/100 = 36.25%

1100 / 1800 x 15/100 = 9.1%

71.25% + 9.1%= 80.35% Total Percentage

71.25%
