Do you remember your ACT and/or SAT score?

betsnup · April 2010

I'm applying for some jobs online, and one of the places is asking me for my ACT / SAT scores. That was over 10 years ago, I can't remember what my ACT score was to save my life (I never took the SATs).

Do you remember your scores? (And no, I'm not asking you to post them, LOL. I just can't remember that far back, wondering if other people can!)

CelticWife · April 2010

I remember my ACT score. I never took the SAT.

MrsTotty · April 2010

Yes. But only because my SAT score was hella crappy, and my ACT score was really good, lol.

miss.jess · April 2010

ACT I have no idea. SAT I can remember but it wasn't THAT long ago... 6 years.

lmdbww · April 2010

I remember my SAT score.

I'm wondering though how you indicate that it was on the previous scoring procedure? Hasn't the SAT's changed since the 90's? lol

jen_and_scott · April 2010

Yes, I remember both. It was 8-9 years ago, but I remember numbers really well.

fxz109 · April 2010

I never took the ACT. I took the SAT twice - once in 8th grade and then as a junior. I remember my 8th grade score exactly, but would have to ball park my high school score, which was much higher and the one I'm sure they care about!

Sam78 · April 2010

I took the SAT in 1995 and yes, I still remember the score. LSAT too, but that was in 2000.

1MusicMaker · April 2010

I'm seriously sitting here trying to think of what I wore yesterday. lol

I have a general idea of both, but I could be way off...

mamamoos · April 2010

i remember both. why is no one posting numbers? lol...

I don't know anything about the SATs, but they have a spot to put your score, and then there is a drop-down where you indicate what the max score was - so that must be how they differentiate. I had been wondering what that meant!

Faith1318 · April 2010

Yes, I remember. I remember numbers really easily though.

nemtown · April 2010

I got a 26 on my ACT and never took the SAT.

bumpuser511563 · April 2010

How about if I don't want to remember.

DarthNBJenni · April 2010

Perfect I didn't take the ACT (not as widely known here)

Which doesn't help when you are a lazy arse solid B student

andrealynn0707 · April 2010

I remember both.

MrsJMB · April 2010

Yes, but only because I did really well on it and the ACT is only a 2 digit score, so it's easy. I didn't take the SAT.

mabst196 · April 2010

I didn't take the ACT, but I do remember my score for the SAT. They did change the scoring so I'm sure it sounds like I failed now, lol.

ABMcKinney · April 2010

Yup. I got a 29 on my ACT and a 1380ish on my SAT.

yep. lol

LoriFalce · April 2010

1550. I had a perfect 800 in verbal. Freaking math section ruined my chances at a perfect 1600.

This. I actually took the ACT 3 times and got a 1 point higher each time. I needed a certain score to get the scholarship I wanted and I got it on my last try. It was a pain, hence the memory!

JOEBunny · April 2010

Yes, but I probably would not provide it at this point, it is not relevant. I have been ask for it before on apps, It was not an issue. The test is scored differently now, so you would have to know more than just the score to make sense of it.

Cytina · April 2010

I remember my SAT score, but not my ACT; I also remember my LSAT score but not my GMAT score. My mind is usually a steel trap when it comes to remembering that kind of crap!

newmama09 · April 2010

Yep. I took the ACT 3 times & got the same score each time.

lisaNov3 · April 2010

i don't think i ever took the act but i can give you a ballpark for the SAT.. not exact though

Judah'sMommy · April 2010

Yep, I remember both. And I took them 12 or 13 years ago.

And for MM, I got a 30 on the ACT and a 1330 on the SAT. A pretty decent 730 in verbal, but a crappy 600 in math. Math blows.

lite-bright · April 2010

I remember my SAT score, and I *think* I know what my ACT was as well.

KKM · April 2010

same here.

LukeAndAmanda · April 2010

Yes. Unfortunately I took them exactly a week apart my junior year. I got a 1270 on my SAT and a 26 on my ACT. Not all that fantastic. Oh well.

Mrs.Hizzo · April 2010

This thread is cracking me up. I'm waiting for another thread where everyone shares their IQ.

OP, I remember my ACT score because all the schools I applied to wanted it, but I don't remember my SAT or even my GRE, even though that was a lot more recent.

102503Natalie · April 2010

Yes, I remember my ACT score (didn't take SAT) and was pretty proud of it until I came in here.

violetvirgo · April 2010

yup. 30 on the ACT (i took that when i was a freshman in HS) and i scored a 1200 on the SAT my freshman year and my junior year (the one i used for college apps) i scored a 1540. Big Smile

i don't even understand the new scoring. doesn't the SAT go up to 2600 or something now? Weird.

violetvirgo · April 2010

***. duplicate post. BOO!

SBear12 · April 2010

Yep, because my BFF and I often joke that we peaked in HS. She was the lead in our high school musical, and I had a perfect 800 verbal SAT score. We both made the local newspaper... and definitely haven't done anything that impressive since.

This! Embarrassed

ncbelle · April 2010

SAT sort of - 15-something - I only remember because I was super proud of my perfect verbal score ;-)

I could only ballpark my GRE scores though.

And, yes, the SAT scoring goes up to 2400 now. There's another 800 point "writing" section which is 2/3 grammar and 1/3 short essay.

Oooh, AND we're both from central PA! Personally, I like to blame radiation poisoning. Nothing screams quality first trimester brain development like residing five miles from a power plant meltdown. I totally lost math skillz that day.
