countdown until we recieve nov. SAT scores

<p>yeah thats the feeling i get also valikor.</p>

<p>Sorry, maybe someone already asked this -- are we expecting to see offiical COMPOSITE PERCENTILES tommorow??</p>

<p>You get scores (200-800). You have to wait 2 weeks for percentiles and number wrong, etc.</p>

<p>lol, when did they put up the scores by midnight??</p>

<p>it would suck to get a 2400 but to have low SAT IIs...really screw ya up...especially if you were planning on sending ACT and just too the SAT on a whim!</p>

<p>Argh. Honestly, I don't care about my composite. I just want 700+ on CR, and, sadly, it's been somewhat hard for me.</p>

<p>10h22</p>

<p>what's the diff between scores and percentiles? :S </p>

<p>and which do we send to the school?</p>

<p>around 9 hrs 30 minutes....whew!!! cant wait!</p>

<p>Score is what you get (600-2400), percentile is how you do in comparison to other test takers.</p>

<p>so, like there are people that get 600s? since its a curve thingy, is there a same amount of people getting 600 as 2400??</p>

<p>Couldn't you theoretically get a 0? Answering every single one wrong?</p>

<p>Hm. You always hear about the people who get 2400s, but not the ones who get 600. I bet it takes a mild amount of skill to get 600, but those people don't get any credit!</p>

<p>I think the only way to get a 600 is to know every answer on the test. Think about it.</p>

<p>You could just be really, really lucky and not too bright.</p>

<p>Is there going to be a chat room set up for those people who are staying up to see their scores? Last time I took the SAT this was done, so I figured it'd be cool.</p>

<p>Actually, s'vronne, the chances of that occuring are about</p>

<p>(1/5)^200+ questions on a test.</p>

<p>Evolution from a molecule of hydrogen is more likely.</p>

<p>There was this graduate from MIT and he still managed a 620. He got a math question right. (Figures right? MIT.)</p>

<p>If I knew how the scoring at the bottom of the scale worked, it'd make more sense. Do you have to get every single question wrong or omitted to make a 600? Wouldn't a correct answer be cancelled out by all of the wrong answers?</p>

<p>ckmets, i am not suprised a CC member like yourself would miss a joke :)</p>

<p>"They write the date with the day before the month</p>

<p>wow you would think someone on college confidential would know that"</p>

<p>Oh well one can never be too sure. Might jinx myself :P</p>

<p>God im so superstitious now.</p>

<p>Actually, you bring up a very good point. Omiting each one is probably an easier way.</p>

<p>I apologize for not thinking about that.</p>

<p>"Colleges get a copy of your essay in the score report"</p>

<p>I sure hope that isnt true... I called Bush an idiot... and im applying to west point!</p>
