I'm not sure who 'they" is in your question, but most colleges consider all three parts of your SAT score. However, colleges often place more significance on your scores on the math and critical reading parts of the SAT, as those parts of the SAT have been in existence for decades, whereas the writing part is new. If you see an SAT score on which only two parts of the SAT have been reported, it is almost always the math and critical reading parts.

What is the max you can score on the SAT test?

The SAT is comprised of 3 sections: Math, Writing (Essay), and Critical Reading. Each of these 3 sections can score a maximum of 800 points. These three scores are added to make the maximum SAT score 2400. According to Harvard's acceptance statistics, they accept students with SAT scores in the range of 2080 - 2370. That should give you a decent measurement of what a *really* good SAT score is.

This shows the laziness of the teacher: she made a test with 96 questions, not 100, and the student only got three-quarters of them correct--which also means the student was lazy in not studying enough to get a better score.


Can you select your best math score from one test with the best critical reading score from another test?

Yes. Your best scores on SAT sections can be combined to form your "superscore." Colleges will accept your "superscore" on the SAT. Colleges will not hold it against you if you take the SAT more than once.
