There isn't a conversion between the two. The SAT I is the standard math, reading, writing test, which is required for most colleges. The SAT II, know as SAT Subject Tests, are one hour tests in one subject only. These tests allow you to show your strengths in particular subjects - especially the sciences and foreign languages as these are not tested on the SAT I - but most students take them because some colleges require them. SAT II scores have varying curves depending on the test, so conversion to SAT I scores is impossible.

Meaning, let's say you got these scores on each test: SAT Test I: Math (750), Writing (720), Reading (640) SAT Test II: Math (600), Writing (800), Reading (700) You add the highest score from each subject and boom, you go from a 2100 or 2110 to a 2250!

SAT II's are also known as SAT Subject Tests. These tests are standardized (just like the SAT Reasoning Test), but they only focus on one subject (for instance, physics). Many colleges require students to take SAT II tests.
The SAT II tests your knowledge of a particular subject. There are many different SAT II (a.k.a the SAT subject test) tests. It is suggested that you take the test in a subject that you have taken an AP or Honors course in or know a lot about.
