<p>Are these calculations correct?</p>
<p>Math:</p>
<p>54 - (# wrong/4)</p>
<p>Reading:</p>
<p>67- (# wrong/4)</p>
<p>Writing:</p>
<p>49- (# wrong/4)</p>
<p>If so, according to the BB and <a href="http://www.erikthered.com/tutor/SAT-Released-Test-Curves.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.erikthered.com/tutor/SAT-Released-Test-Curves.pdf</a>
Cant you get about 10 wrong on each section and still get about a 740 across the board?</p>
<p>I feel like I am doing something wrong or missing something...WHAT!</p>
<p>Thats assuming you attempted all the questions. If not its how many you attempted - (#wrong/4) right??</p>
<p>It’s #right - (#wrong/4) = Raw points</p>
<p>Round up if above .5</p>
<p>You definitely can’t get 10 wrong on each question and get 740s across the board… I’ve done a lot of googling and it seems like a lot of the raw->scaled conversions online are totally outdated and wrong. For math usually it’s like -1=780ish, -2=mid700s, -3=low700s, -4=low 700s or 690. For CR it’s more up in the air though, and writing depends on your essay score.</p>
<p>For math:</p>
<p>raw = 54 - ( # of grid-ins wrong ) - 1.25 * ( # of MC wrong )</p>
<p>For CR:</p>
<p>raw = 67 - 1.25 * ( # of MC wrong )</p>
<p>For writing:</p>
<p>raw = 49 - 1.25 * ( # of MC wrong )</p>
<p>(all of the above get rounded to the nearest whole number)</p>
<p>So, 10 wrong on each section (assuming all MC for math) would typically be:</p>
<p>math: 640
CR: 670
writing: 61</p>
