Summary of Results
Congratulations on taking the SAT Reasoning Test!
You’re showing colleges that you are serious about getting an education. The SAT is one indicator of how
ready you are to handle college-level work. The test measures what you learned in high school and how well
you can apply that knowledge. Both skills are essential to doing well in high school and in college.

How Your Test Is Scored www.collegeboard.org/satprep.
Your scores tell college admissions officers how well you
did, compared with other members of the graduating class
of students who took the SAT. The mean (or average) score
is approximately 500 in each of the three sections—critical
reading, mathematics, and writing. A score of 500 shows that
you scored better than about half of the students who took
the test.
Your SAT score reports include percentiles and score
ranges to help admissions officers evaluate your scores.
The percentiles show how your scores compare to those of
other members of the graduating class of students who took
the SAT. The ranges estimate how your scores might vary, if
you took the test several times in a short period of time.
Keep in mind that colleges use more than your SAT scores
when making admissions decisions. This is only one factor;
your high school record, essays, recommendations, interviews,
and extracurricular activities also play an important role.

writing section.

ESSAY SCORE: 9
POSSIBLE SCORE: 2 - 12

ESSAY PROMPT
Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below:

We would like to think that progress causes problems to be solved completely, and sometimes that happens. For
example, some diseases that once posed a serious threat are no longer a problem, thanks to modern medicine.
Some problems can be solved, and they go away. But as often as not, problems exist in a chain of cause and
effect: for each problem solved, a new one develops.

Adapted from Gregg Easterbrook, The Progress Paradox: How Life Gets Better While People Feel Worse

ASSIGNMENT: Does progress reduce the number of problems in the world, or does solving old problems just
lead to new ones? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your
position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

Essay Scoring Guide


The essay will be scored by experienced and trained high school and college teachers. Each essay will be
scored by two people who won’t know each other’s score. They won’t know the student’s identity or school
either. Each reader will give the essay a score from 1 to 6 (6 is the highest score) based on the following scor-
ing guide.
