Estimated composite
545 / 800
How this works
An estimate, not a promise
The digital SHSAT has 50 questions in each of its two sections, English Language Arts and Math. Each section is scaled to a number out of 400, and the two add up to the composite that decides admission. The Department of Education doesn't publish the conversion, and it changes a little every year.
This calculator uses the same approximate curve as AntiPreppy's in-app estimate. Like the real one, it's steep at the top: the last few questions in a section are worth far more than the ones in the middle. So a balanced score usually beats a lopsided one with the same number right.
Cutoffs are the lowest score admitted to each school, set after the fact by how many students ranked it and how they scored. They move by a few points a year. Every school, every year since 2021.
Use it to see the size of the gap, not to predict an offer. The only score that counts is the one on test day, and a practice test's raw score depends on how hard that practice test was.

An estimate that updates as your kid practices
AntiPreppy estimates your child's SHSAT score from every question they answer, not from one practice test, and shows it against the cutoffs as it moves. Kids play adaptive sessions and earn prizes you set. It's free through 2026.
