<p>I'm kinda p!ssed. angry...grr
the curve i guess is always like this, but it stinks.
i guess cracking 2300 is a lott harder than it looks -_-;</p>

<p>missed six, 67W, 11 on essay = 700 on writing
missed four, 49M = 720 on math <em>sniff</em> <em>sniff</em>
missed five, 61CR = 740 on critical reading</p>

<p>to get a 2300, how many can you miss in each section?</p>

<p>I dont get this **** you guys got a 49 and got 720s and I got a 49 and its a 690!!!</p>

<p>boo....48 10essay is a 700?</p>

<p>math raw score 52 = 770</p>

<p>to answer kissytheskyx i got a 2300 and i think i got like 1 wrong on math (790) 2-4 wrong on writing (770) and assuming a 12 essay 5-6 wrongs (740 for me) with a 10 essay probably need more like 2-3 wrong</p>

<p>I also tested on sunday and got a 49 which is a 690. The majority of others on this post with 47,48 and 49's are getting 700, 710 and 720's (and not necessarily respectively). Doesn't this curve seem a little extreme???</p>

<p>mine: raw 50, 720 I took it on Saturday. This seems to be conflicting with what a lot of people are saying.</p>

<p>CR 630 (50 raw points=650 according to PR)
M 660 (44 raw points=720 according to PR)
W 650-61 multiple choice, 11 essay (59 raw points=720 according to PR)</p>

<p>I deserve a 2090 damn it.</p>

<p>THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. If anyone works for Collegeboard, feel free to do so.
Same raw score=same scaled score</p>

<p>DO NOT TELL ME THEY SCREWED UP THE SCALING THIS TIME!!!!</p>

<p>1) There was more than one writing test.
2) What were your essay scores? Compare the amount wrong with the scores from 20-80, not the score calculated after the essays are added in.</p>

<p>From what I have so far . . .
I realize that there are two different tests
*These are halfway combined because I've noticed at least one poster had a different test than me. For exampe, -3 on my test was a 72, on another it was 73 on the Writing section. These are still relatively close, I'll separate the two tests when I have enough scores.</p>

<p>Math:</p>

<p>54 800
53 790
52 770
51
50
49 720
48 710/700</p>

<p>Critical Reading</p>

<p>67 800
66
65 800
64
63 770
62
61 740</p>

<p>Writing</p>

<p>49 80
48 79/80
47
46
45 72</p>

<p>Hmm, by the curve I think I was part of, if I had missed 1 LESS question, I would have gotten an 800. **** Critical reading.</p>

<p>So for some reason I got the test with the tougher curve and got *****ed over??!?!?!!?! How is this in any way shape or form fair??!?!!?!? So basically I'm graded on different standards than the guy/girl sitting next to me.</p>

<p>If your curve is tougher your test is probably easier. Just a conjecture, though.</p>

<p>OR, It's possible that my test was tougher in the first place and I got **<strong><em>ed over anyways. Either way, I got *</em></strong>*ed over royally.</p>

<p>You can't call a test fair unless questions in Test A match EXACTLY the questions in Test B and C and D and so on and so forth.</p>

<p>I think that's a little harsh.</p>

<p>It is to my understanding that there were at least 4 versions of the test possibly more.</p>

<p>yeah i really didn't get the writing portion of the SAT, how they went about grading that because i got a 10/12 on the essay but still managed to get an 800. Shouldn't it be less than that if its not 12/12? Also i got 790 on the math, how many questions does that mean I missed, and 750 for cr? It doesnt give me the full score report yet for some reason</p>

<p>The descrepancy between a raw score in math of 49 which is a 690 and a raw score in math of 48 which is a 720 is not making sense. Could someone explain this..... maybe this should be addressed by college board as well. From these figures and this curve, it would seem that in order to get an 800 in math you would have to have a raw score of 54 (answering every single questions correctly) How often does that happen?</p>

These are still relatively close, I'll separate the two tests when I have enough scores. Until then, I'll put multiple scores for one raw score in the order from highest to lowest.</p>

<p>Corrections? Additions?</p>

<p>I don' know of any one that got a math 54 which would probaly equal 800. I was just wondering what the raw score would be of a person getting an 800 in math would be and how common would that be. Usually you can miss 1 or maybe 2 and still get an 800 but on this extreme curve for math (49 raw score = 690) there doesn't seem like there would be any room for error</p>
