Understanding Your Score Report

Scores to Review

• Total Score (320-1520): Compare to benchmarks
• Section Scores: Reading/Writing and Math (each 160-760)
• Subscores: More specific skill areas

Most Valuable Information

• Questions you got wrong (review each one!)
• Skill areas needing improvement
• Time management issues
• Question types that challenged you

How to Use Your Results

Step 1: Identify Patterns

Look for trends in what you missed:

• Specific content areas (algebra, reading comprehension, grammar)
• Question types (long passages, word problems)
• Sections where you ran out of time

Step 2: Create a Plan

Focus your test prep on your weakest areas — that's where you'll see the most improvement.
