Where should I list SAT scores on Resume?

Where is it generally accepted to list SAT scores for an summer analystsales and trading resume if I don't want to use space to list my high school? I currently have it under my university, but I took the SAT back in high school.

SAT on Resume


The general consensus is that it does not matter if you put your SAT score on your resume. But it should not be on your resume if the score is below 1500 or you're out of undergrad.

If you do have an exceptional score then feel free to list it on under the education portion. Do not devote more than a line.

It is very unlikely that you will be dinged for not listing your scores.

Are you still worried about the quality of your resume?

If your resume is not clear, concise, or properly formatted it could end up in the “no” pile.Your resume is your first impression and it should be a good one. Follow the link below to get your resume reviewed by industry professionals.

I listed mine under the "Education" section.

If you have a good score - definitely list it.

I'd also say 1500+ (assuming the "old" SAT).

Only put standardized scores which are in the 98%+ on your resume. Otherwise you might be shooting yourself in the foot.
