	The Ultimate SAT - American History Information Guide and Reference

		The corresponding percentile of each scaled score varies from test to test – for example, in 2003, a scaled score of 800 in both sections of the SAT Reasoning Test corresponded to a percentile of 99, while a scaled score of 800 in the SAT Physics Test corresponded to the 94th percentile.
