The official 2018 College Board × ACT concordance tables, which remain the concordance of record for the Digital SAT in 2026.
Most colleges either publish both SAT and ACT ranges or use concordance tables internally. They do not convert for you — send whichever score looks stronger after conversion.
Send the score with the higher percentile. If your SAT percentile is higher than the equivalent ACT percentile, send SAT, and vice versa.
SAT scores below 900 or above 1600, and ACT scores below 16 or above 36, fall outside the official concordance. The tool rounds SAT scores to the nearest 10.
