<p>I got a 35 on english but my sub-scores were 18 and 18. Doesn't that mean I got a perfect score?</p>
<p>I don’t believe so. I think you can get an 18 in one of the two sub-scores and get one wrong, resulting in a 35. Sorry.</p>
<p>I have the same question…</p>
<p>It’s possible. Happened to me as well.</p>
<p>The curve for the sub scores isn’t necessarily the same as the curve for the entire section’s score. </p>
<p>For example, If you missed 1 on a particular sub section, but the curve was -0=18, -1=18, you could get an 18 on that sub section. Then if the curve for the whole English section was -0=36, -1=35, you would get a 35 in English but still have perfect sub scores. Hope that makes sense.</p>
<p>For English, you need to have all correct in order to get 36. However, you may still get 18/18 in the subsection score. The subsection score is based on another curve that sometimes allow you to miss 1 and yet get 18. The same thing happens in other sections too. There is no direct conversion from section subscores to section score although they are correlated.</p>
<p>I hate that! Although I got 18/15: 33.</p>
