Official College Board / ACT concordance
A 12 ACT composite converts to about a 750 SAT total.
On the 2018 College Board / ACT concordance, an ACT composite of 12 corresponds to SAT totals from 730 to 770; 750 is the midpoint of that band. Because each ACT point spans a range of SAT points, admissions officers read the band rather than a single number.

What to do with this number
A score only means something next to a college list.
National percentiles and concordance tables tell you where a score sits across the country. They don't tell you whether it's competitive at the specific schools your student is considering, or what to work on between now and application season. HIYP tracks a student's scores, grades, courses, and activities year by year and turns them into the next concrete step.
