Difficulty statistics are available on SAT Insight

This data is only relevant to Paper SAT administered between 2016 and 2024. As College Board transitioned to Digital SAT that uses adaptive difficulty, this project is now obsolete.

Thank you to over a 100,000 people that had used this calculator since its launch in August 2021. You are seriously awesome! ❤️

Notes

Unchecking the SAT curve will remove it from calculation

Test difficulty is displayed as a relative value in range from 0 to 1, where 0 is the easiest test (curve falls off quicker, you get more punished for mistakes) and 1 is the hardest one (curve falls of slower, you get less punished for mistakes).

Click on a column header to sort the table

Test dates are colored blue for full curves, red for US Reddit curves and pink for International Reddit curves.

All curves are from US tests unless specified otherwise. Calculator is just as effective for International test takes, both types of tests are interchangeable and have the same difficulty.
