Preparing to go to college can sometimes make one anxious. You may find yourself worrying about what kind of score you need to get before being admitted into college. At times you might also wonder what the lowest possible SAT score is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the College Board<\/a>, the lowest possible SAT score is 400<\/strong>, while the highest is 1600. This score is gotten from two sections, math and EBRW, which are scored on a scale of 200 – 800 each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting the lowest SAT score which is 400, is actually almost impossible, except you deliberately answered all questions wrong. Naturally, even if you decide to answer C on all the questions, you’ll still score above the 400 mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, if you find yourself on the lower end of the SAT score sheet and don’t know what to do next, then this article is for you. I will be highlighting some of the best options for you. So, let’s dive right into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible to get the lowest score on the SAT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned earlier, the College Board stated that the lowest possible SAT score is 400. However, getting this score is kind of rare, except if the student submits the answer sheet blank or intentionally answered the wrong ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SAT exam is designed in a way that even a struggling student can score at least higher than the lowest. This is because the scores are graded on a scale of 400, so that means even if you don’t answer, you still score 400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, let’s look at a practical example. If a student were to guess all through the exam, there’s a high possibility such a student will score above 400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To explain further, if you guess answers, chances are you get 25% of the answers right. This means that you will still score higher than the lowest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So all being considered, it is technically impossible to score the lowest<\/strong>. Except you submit the answer sheet blank or deliberately neglect to select the correct answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which states have the lowest SAT scores?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is quite rare for students to score the lowest, even the state with the lowest SAT score average is still far off from the lowest. Below is a list of states with the lowest SAT scores and their average scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
