April SAT -- and its shocking results

<p>On essays, absolutely not. It's about the quality of your writing. I did NOT write to the end and I only used ONE example and elaborated on it. I got a perfect 12.</p>

<p>W: 740, essay 12
CR: 720
M: 610
Composite: 2070</p>

<p>Not bad, not bad. I'll have to retake it to get that math up though.</p>

<p>I didn't take it yet, it comes next month for me, but it wont be hard to top my school. This one kid was bragging "I got a 1990, I got a 1990!! Woohoo!"</p>

<p>Heck, I'll be happy if I get a 1990... I'm expecting to do pitifully on it... I'm used to the ACT. BTW, how do ACT/SAT scores compare?</p>

<p>Well sure he can be happy, but that's definitely not a brag-worthy score...ya' know?</p>

<p>What constitutes a brag-worthy score? (On SAT and ACT)</p>

<p>On SAT, I'd say at least a 2250?</p>

<p>Not sure on ACT, maybe a 32 or 33, but I dont know their scoring that well</p>

<p>Dang, I <em>just</em> missed being bragworthy on ACT.</p>

<p>I'm taking the SAT next Saturday.</p>

<p>WAIT HOLD THE PHONE--next Satuday, 12 Days!? CRAP!!! I don't want to take this freaking thing..I wish they could just attach a device to your brain and it would put down the answers your brain would put...get it?</p>

<p>Yeah.</p>

<p>I haven't prepared AT ALL. I've been putting it off, saying "its not till May" and concentrating on schoolwork. Damn test.</p>

<p>What score were you hoping for?
Around an 1800. It's my first time taking the test with moderate studying. Essay? Around a 10 at least. I'm a good writer.</p>

<p>What did you get? 1840. Essay? 7. I messed up big time this time b/c I didn't finish. I should've (and I know I could've) done so much better.</p>

<p>Retake? Yes. I'm aiming for 1900+ later next time.</p>

<p>i got 2310.
math: 760
verbal: 760
writing: 790
essay: 9</p>

<p>i dunno of anyone yet at my school that did better than me but i don't doubt that there are some.</p>

<p>1940! Goddamn it!!!?!!?!</p>

<hr>

<p>Expecting a 2100 (670CR/700M/730W)
PSAT: 216/99%ile
Got a 1940. :mad:
630CR/84%ile
660M/87%ile
650W/unknown
11 Essay</p>

<p>I am having an epileptic seizure, heart attack and going into cardiac arrest at the same time right now, due to total shock.</p>

<p>Yes. RETAKE!!!!!!!(until I break 2100)</p>

<p>my school's terrible...2130 here (sadly, the best, in jr class anyway (idk about srs))..I'm taking it again in june.</p>

<p>So... who here had a terrible PSAT, and went way up on the real thing? I sure did.</p>

<p>What constitutes a terrible PSAT. I had the highest in my school, but its probably really bad by CC standards-- 191.</p>

<p>183 constitutes terrible PSAT. Yeah, who messed THAT up?</p>

<p>2400w/ 11 essay. I know, awful. RETAKE! MUST RETAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>yeah i did a lot worse than i thought: 205 (best at school, but a 400-student rural campus with a 11% dropout rate isnt a hotbed for competition).
i mean 205 vs. 213 isn't a big difference, but still</p>

<p>I had a 171 as a sophomore.</p>

<p>wow mathwiz, that would basically be amazing....a joke, i hope?</p>
