<p>I'm not really sure how to interpret my scores from a Princeton Review diagnostic I took.</p>
<p>Math: 710
Reading: 710
Writing: 610
Grammar: 69
Essay: 5</p>
<p>I understand the math and reading scores, but what do the writing and grammar scores represent? Also, is it even possible to get an odd number score for an essay? Is there only one scorer for the essay in Princeton Review?</p>
<p>PR is not accurate at all. Do not use any 3rd party company for practice tests, only use the collegeboard’s bluebook.</p>
<p>The grammar is your writing MC score, but the Writing score is your MC + Essay score (scaled). It appears you got a 2 and a 3 for the essay scores which add to a 5. That said PR isn’t the most accurate indicator of everything.</p>

<p>Okay, thank you! I was getting a little worried because I know my writing isn’t great, but it can’t be THAT bad.</p>
<p>Excuse me. But if no one used third party books, how on earth are we going to study? Just because the BB is the real test doesn’t mean you shouldn’t practice with other books. Not to mention there are only 10 practice test. Definitely not enough to score a 2400</p>
<p>Third party books are fine, but we should just know that the Blue Book is the best one out there. No need getting emotional over it.</p>

<p>I dont mean to tarnish the reputation of 3rd party books in general, i only mean to say that their practice tests are not reliable. However, the supplements they teach and go over in each section are reliable.</p>
