SAT Scores 2004

New Hampshire and Massachusetts had the highest average SAT scores this year among the states in which 60 percent or more of high school seniors took the college entrance examinations.

Among high-participation states, Massachusetts had the top math score, 523, and New Hampshire had the top verbal, 522. A perfect score is 800, and the national averages, including states with low participation, were 518 in math and 508 in verbal.

The College Board discourages state-to-state comparisons, partly because the average scores tend to decline as participation rises.

New Hampshire's average math score was second, 521, and Massachusetts average verbal score was second, 518.
