College Board makes yet another Mistake: 2007 PSAT

<p>"Question number 21 from the writing skills section of the Saturday form of the 2007 PSAT/NMSQT was removed from scoring. Due to a printing error that affected a significant number of test books, several letters of a word appearing in one of the answer choices for Question 21 did not print properly. To rectify this problem, question number 21 was not scored for any test taker. It is important to note, however, that the removal of this question did not affect the comparability of the 20-80 scaled scores for this section. Even with the removal of this question, the statistical process of equating, which is used to translate raw scores (based on right, wrong, and omitted responses) to scaled scores, ensures that the 20-80 scaled scores on this section are comparable to scores on the writing sections of other editions of the PSAT/NMSQT."</p>

<p>if you want to verify the veracity of this post, go to collegeboard.com and go to the psat/nmsqt section. You will then see a link that says: "Read important information about the writing skills section question 21 on the Saturday test."</p>

<p>this better not make the scores come later...grrr</p>

<p>ps: btw, does anyone remember what question 21 was.....I know it's been a while.</p>

<p>hah .. at least it isn't a serious error</p>

<p>Question 21 was the question that you spent way too much time on, at the expense of other questions.</p>

<p>^ haha, that would suck...</p>

<p>So, does "any test taker" apply to Wednesday people?</p>

<p>haha.
Sweetness.
I didn't take it on Saturday.
But I'm sorry about that. =/ Hopefully it's not going to make a radical difference in your score.</p>
