Leaderboards & seasons
Digital SAT leaderboard — where you stand this season
How ranking, percentiles and tiers work.
Where you stand against everyone else preparing for this test date — a live cohort, not a static score report.
- Global and country leaderboards, reset each season
- Percentile rather than raw position, so it reads honestly at any scale
- Six skill tiers set by percentile, not by raw score, so they mean the same thing at any cohort size
- Opt out any time and keep every other feature, including your own percentile
- Extended-time attempts ranked in a separate pool
- Accounts declared as under 18 are off the public board by default, and cannot switch it back on from settings
- Study groups and class leaderboards
- Friend challenges
Where this actually stands
Live. Rankings only count attempts sat under consistent conditions — we would rather have a small honest leaderboard than a large meaningless one.
Percentile, not position
A leaderboard that shows raw position tells you something different every week depending on how many people happen to be using the platform. Being 40th is meaningless without knowing whether there are 50 people or 50,000.
So the board reports percentile, and the six skill tiers are set from percentile too rather than from a raw score. A tier that means "top 10% of people preparing" means the same thing at any cohort size; a tier that means "above 1350" quietly gets easier or harder as the population shifts.
Seasons reset the board, so a strong result in October does not sit at the top for a year and nobody joining in March is competing against a snapshot of a different cohort.
Who is on it, and who is not
Extended-time attempts are ranked in their own pool. Comparing a fifty-percent-extra-time sitting against a standard one would be unfair in both directions, and merging them would make the whole board mean less.
Ranking is opt-out at any time, from settings, and you keep everything else including your own percentile — the diagnostic value of knowing where you stand does not depend on anyone else being able to see it.
Accounts declared as under 18 are kept off the public board by default, and that cannot be switched back on from the settings page. The signup form says so next to the checkbox, and it is enforced on the row itself rather than in the one screen that writes it, because a guarantee that depends on every future caller remembering it is not a guarantee.
What the percentile does not mean
It compares you against other people practising here. That is not a national sample, and it should not be read as one: people who seek out practice platforms are, on average, preparing harder than the general test-taking population.
It is useful for a specific question — is this score normal for someone at this stage of preparation — and it is not useful for the question people want to ask it, which is where they would rank nationally. For that, use the published percentiles from the College Board and the middle-50% range of the schools you are applying to.
Common questions
Does my SAT percentile here match the national percentile?
No, and it should not be read as one. It compares you against other people practising on Preptics, who are on average preparing harder than the national test-taking population. It tells you whether your score is normal for this stage of preparation, not where you would sit nationally.
Can I turn ranking off?
Yes, in settings, at any time, and you keep every other feature including your own percentile. Accounts declared as under 18 are kept off the public leaderboard by default and that cannot be switched back on from the settings page.
Are extended-time attempts ranked against standard ones?
No. They are ranked in a separate pool. Comparing a 50%-extra-time attempt against a standard one would be unfair in both directions, and merging them would make the whole board mean less.

- What counts as a good SAT score?There is no universal good score, and treating the national average as a target is the most common way people set the wrong one. The only score that matters is the one relative to the schools you are applying to — specifically their middle 50% range, which is published.
- What does a practice SAT score range actually mean?A score range is the platform admitting how much it does not know. The centre is its best estimate of your scaled score; the width is how far that estimate could be off given the evidence behind it. A single number from a practice test carries the same uncertainty — it just hides it.
