Curve and Essay??!

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>What do you guys think the CR curve will be?
Can -7 be a 700?</p>

<p>And has anyone ever gotten a 12 on the essay despite squeezing the conclusion into the small margins? LOL I had filled up massive paragraphs with the argument that compromise was good and used the cuban missile crisis, a famous rejected settlement from the book Lawyer by Arthur Liman, and how my I negotiated with my sister that she could pick the video game. Any hope for a 12 despite squeezing my 2 sentence conclusion into the margin?</p>

2

<p>I got an 11 before and my conclusion was just "In conclusion,"...yeah,
I ran out of time but it seems that the graders are pretty sympathetic
about running out of time</p>

3

<p>i think -7 can get you around 710</p>

4

<p>So when you say -7, do you mean -7 points or the fact that you got 7 wrong? I'm really worried about my math section which is why I'm asking.</p>

5

<p>7 wrong for hte math will hurt... a lot since the math was actually surprisingly easy this time</p>

6

<p>I referenced the Cuban Missile Crisis as well.</p>

7

<p>yea my correction, 7 wrong wud equal?</p>

<p>oh and do they look at what one writes in the margins? (not outside the dark border, the space right under the last line)</p>

8

<p>bump</p>

<p>10 characters</p>

9

<p>7 wrong will probably be 710 ish</p>

10

<p>I think this writing section's curve will be extremely harsh. I have taken the SAT 3 times, and this time is just way too simple. I knew every single question on the exam for the writing part.</p>

11

<p>Can anyone comment on the conclusion in the margins? I had an 11 last time and feel that yesterday's essay was much better but the lack of space is giving me paranoia LOL.</p>
