<p>alright, now that some of us have taken the SAT iis today...
let's dive into speculation</p>

<p>I know, I know
the College Board releases no information regarding curves for their exams</p>

<p>but do we have any idea how generous the curves tend to be?</p>

<p>I'm betting</p>

<p>Math IIC - curve, nice? (12% get 800s, so I don't know if that's from a good curve or reason for no curve)</p>

<p>Biology - Little curve (-1 = 800)
Chemistry - More generous (-3 = 800?)</p>

<p>what are you guys thinking?</p>

2

<p>For Math IIC, I'm thinking the curve will be tougher than usual, around 8% get 800's since the questions were easy, but timing was the only issue (atleast for me)</p>

3

<p>chem curve is usually about</p>

<p>5 wrong - 800
10 wrong - 740 or 750
15 wrong - 700</p>

4

<p>im guessing -6 = 800 for IIc</p>

5

<p>-4 = 800 For 2c</p>

6

<p>youknowme are you serious?</p>

<p>has it ever gotten that high?</p>

7

<p>my bad, i think 5-6 is reasonable</p>

8

<p>today's test is somewhat harder than the test in the CB's subject test book. So i will give it a 6</p>

9

<p>darn i missed at least about 12. what will that give?</p>

10

<p>What do you guys think the US History curve will be?</p>

11

<p>12 wrong is prolly a 730 - 750 or so id guess</p>
