Class of 2013 PSAT Scores

<p>Hi guys! </p>

<p>I'm supposed to find out my PSAT scores tomorrow, and I'm really scared. I thought that this year's PSAT was harder than the practice ones I've taken, well, the math section was. </p>

<p>Have you guys gotten your scores? How's it looking for you guys?</p>

<p>If I don't get a high enough score for National Merit, I hope I at least at a 200 ):</p>

<p>I was pretty happy with mine (198) :).</p>

<p>I know it’s not the best score in the world but I’m actually like really proud. (lol…)</p>

<p>Anyway, that was before I started studying. I’m usually getting 2050-2100 now.
My Math was really good though (80) and everything else I SUCK at haha</p>

<p>@GoodJobBro: Congrats! That’s a good score (: What’s your state’s usual NM score if you don’t mind me asking?
I thought math was the hardest. So I’m not expecting much from that.</p>

<p>Yea no problem mine was NJ and it was at 221 I believe which made me waaaay off lol…</p>

<p>I wasn’t expecting it anyway though, so nbd :)</p>

<p>I was expecting 220+ and ended up with 233 :)</p>

<p>it might just be me but I did a lot better than I thought.
I usually get around 2250 on practice tests ~ 225 PSAT</p>

<p>but I got a 240 in california. you never know with PSAT cause the curve is so huge.</p>

<p>@GoodJobBro: Well, good luck on the SAT! Hope you do get the score you want!
@teteatete: That’s impressive! :smiley: Congrats! Looks like you and ILK won’t need to worry about NM standards!
@ILK: Congrats! Did you expect yourself to do this well? And the curve you’re talking about, is it the NM curve?</p>

<p>the raw score conversion chart is avilable at CBorg now. One wrong on the W = 750; 2 wrong on the Math= 740. etc. etc.</p>

<p>I was pretty happy with the improvement I had. I got a 183 my sophomore year. Junior year I got a 207.</p>

<p>@tallgirl: that’s for the SAT though, right?
@SimplyBMW: (: Yay for you~ I wish my score had improve that much though. I was very disappointed with my score… and then when I went through the booklet, I counted 7 questions that I missed due to carelessness. You can not imagine how depressed I was.</p>

<p>So if you didn’t make a good enough of a score for NM, you shouldn’t worry about the PSAT at all anymore, right? Do colleges even look at these scores if you didn’t make NM?</p>

<p>Colleges will only pay attention to what’s on your application. The PSAT won’t be on there so no worries.</p>

<p>I felt very good after I took the test, but I was expecting at max 233. I just got lucky on a few unsure questions I guess. and when I talk about the curve, I meant the scoring curve and not the NM curve</p>

<p>I’m an international student and I scord 215. Will I be commended?</p>

<p>@ILK: That’s really great though (: congrats again! There’s a scoring curve on the PSAT?</p>

<p>@skim14: I’m not sure, don’t you need to be a resident in the US to qualify for NM? Good job also!</p>

<p>Also, are PSAT scores really representative of your SAT scores? I heard that to get your SAT score, you’d just add a zero onto your PSAT scores. Is that true…?</p>

<p>^nah, the PSAT is usually lower but only sometimes the same as what you will get on the sat.</p>
