<p>I thought the test was pretty hard.....</p>
<p>I thought it was okay. I will start a discussion post.</p>
<p>Very easy IMO.</p>
<p>M
-1 76
-2 72</p>
<p>W
-1 75
-2 72</p>
<p>CR
-1 79
-2 76
-3 74
-4 74</p>
<p>^ This makes me sad.</p>
<p>@SheepGetKilled: No way its that harsh… this test was difficult in comparison to other tests.</p>
<p>Lol sorry just my guess…</p>

<p>According to this, my curve is</p>
<p>CR: medium
M: medium
W: harsh</p>
<p>Last years test was a pretty generous curve wasn’t it? </p>
<p>Anyone take both years and say this was one is harder or easier?</p>
<p>Even if the writing curve were very harsh, they generally don’t take off 4-5 for one question wrong.</p>
<p>could someone write what one’s score would be starting from -1 all the way to -10 for every section?? It would be really helpful for me and a lot of other people.</p>
<p>2005-2008 Curves from an old thread:</p>

<p>i hope writing is generous
last year’s test was harder i think… don’t remember writing much but SC was harder</p>
<p>so if i got -5 wrong in CR, and -7 wrong in math, and -4 wrong in Writing, what would my score be for each section??</p>
<p>@livelikeali
Theses are just guesses but…</p>
<p>CR - 72
Math - 67
Writing - 71</p>
<p>Total = 210</p>
<p>CR will have a generous curve.
Math will also have a generous curve.
Writing will have a super harsh curve.</p>
<p>just to clarify the 7 wrong includes the grid ins…in the score did u calculate that?? Thanks for doing that for me</p>
<p>Last year’s sentence completion was harder, but this year’s passage questions were much harder.</p>
<p>CR will (hopefully) be super generous. (-2=79 or 80)
M will be slightly generous. (-2=77)
W will be really harsh. (-1=76)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>CR: 68-72
M: 66-70
W: 67-70</p>
<p>Total: 201-212</p>
<p>Sorry to bug you more CantConcentrate, but what if I got 2 or 3 wrong on math, 2-3 wrong on reading, and 1-2 wrong on writing?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>CR: 73-76
M: 72-76
W: 72-76</p>
<p>Total: 217-228
…Maybe?</p>
<p>Hm, I still have a chance then. My state’s cutoff last year was 214.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>I thing I got about this: -2 Math, -4 Writing, -4 CR, i dont know what that translates to though.</p>
