Countdown to June 2010 SAT Scores/Results Thread

<p>Oh, OK. I’d hate to stay up until 2 AM (here on the West Coast) and find out that the scores aren’t available until 5.</p>

202

<p>They are always available at 5 am even though CB says 8. That’s what it’s been for all the other SATs I’ve taken.</p>

<p>This is what is posted on the College Board website.</p>

<p>No, I’m seeing this:</p>

<p>June 5, 2010 June 24, 2010 July 2, 2010</p>

205

<p>So SAT scores come out tomorrow morning at 8 officially, 5 really, on My SAT?</p>

206

<p>If by tomorrow you mean Thursday, then yes. Thursday morning.</p>

207

<p>Any idea how the curves on this SAT will compare with the curves here?</p>

<p>^I think that writing and math will both be yellow; reading red(?)</p>

209

<p>I sure hope so. What’s the consensus on the difficulty of the math portion? I honestly found it much easier than the December SAT. I don’t know.</p>

210

<p>Anyone got an idea what -2 or -3 and 4 omitted would yield in the Math?</p>

211

<p>Here are my curve predictions:</p>

<p>CR:
67 - 800
66 - 800
65 - 800
64 - 790
63 - 770
62 - 760
61 - 750</p>

<p>M:
54 - 800
53 - 780
52 - 750
51 - 730
50 - 720
49 - 700</p>

<p>W:
49 - 80
48 - 78
47 - 75
46 - 73
45 - 71</p>

212

<p>So…let me get this straight. I answered 50 questions, and got 48 of them right. So my scaled score is 48?</p>

213

<p>It would be 47 because 2 wrong is - .5 which rounds up to -1 from your base score of 48.</p>

214

<p>Damn, so no hope for a 700 for me?</p>

215

<p>^ It seems very unlikely.</p>

216

<p>You guys are providing incorrect information. Please be informed before you start explaining things incorrectly.</p>

<p>Getting two wrong adds a .5 point penalty, but that is not rounded up to 1. In fact, if you do the math you get 47.5 as your raw score, which rounds up to a 48. And also, a 48/50 is almost always a 700+. Same for 47/50, actually.</p>

<p>*sorry, I forgot to consider the 4 omitted that he mentioned before. This would in fact take someone out of the running for a 700+. however, your scaled score is still 48, not 47.</p>

217

<p>alihaq717, you just made me very happy that I don’t know how to calculate the scaled score. Before I thought I had a 720 math and now I’m looking at a 740!</p>

218

<p>

</p>

<p>I’m really, really hoping the test is curved a tad better. More like:</p>

<p>CR:
67 - 800
66 - 800
65 - 800
64 - 800
63 - 780
62 - 760
61 - 750</p>

219

<p>Or how about -</p>

<p>CR:
67 - 800
66 - 800
65 - 800
64 - 800
63 - 800
62 - 800
61 - 800
60 - 800
…
-17 = 790</p>

220

<p>

</p>

<p>Well, that would be great, but then there wouldn’t be much of a point in getting an 800 would there?</p>
