SAT Score Percentiles MCP

sat-score-percentiles-mcp

SAT score percentiles and class of 2026 SAT averages by state for AI assistants, from College Board's percentile tables and the 2026 SAT Suite Annual Report.

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It answers from bundled College Board data, so it needs no API key and no network calls.

Tools

Every result has structured JSON, a one-paragraph summary, as_of, source (the College Board page or PDF) and more (a page on examscorecalc.com).

What it knows that your model does not

• Class of 2026 SAT results, published by College Board in fall 2026: 1,954,833 test takers nationally with a mean total of 1045 (528 Reading and Writing, 517 Math), and the same figures for every state.
• Each state's participation rate, which explains most of the gap between state averages. States that test every 11th grader have lower means than states where only college-bound students test.
• The 25th, 50th and 75th percentile SAT scores for each state's class of 2026.
• The exact College Board percentile for every 10-point score, in both reference groups, instead of a rounded guess.

Example prompts

• "What percentile is a 1350 on the SAT?"
• "What SAT Math score do I need for the 90th percentile?"
• "What was the average SAT score in Texas for the class of 2026, and how many students took it?"
• "Which states had the highest SAT averages in 2026 among states where at least half of students took the test?"
• "Is a 1200 a good SAT score in Ohio?"

Data sources

Full list with fetch dates and file hashes in DATA_SOURCES.md.

• Percentiles: College Board, SAT Nationally Representative and User Percentiles.
• Class of 2026 results: College Board, 2026 SAT Suite of Assessments Annual Report, total group report and the state supplements.

Limitations

• The percentile page does not print a year. User group percentiles cover SAT takers from the past three graduating classes, as College Board states on that page.
• State means depend on who tests. Compare states with similar participation rates, or use min_participation_pct.
• Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands reports have no participation rate, so they are not ranked.
• The Ohio supplement was not linked from the report index on 2026-11-03; it was fetched from the same College Board path pattern and parsed like the others.
• Data are fixed at the 2026 reports. When College Board publishes the class of 2027 report, the data file is rebuilt with scripts/build_data.py.
