<p>On average, how many questions can I miss and still get a 620 CR? (yeah I know)/</p>
<p>15 probably</p>
<p>Same question:</p>
<p>How many can I miss (wrong) to get a minimum of:</p>
<p>750 math
750 CR
700 writing</p>
<p>oh that's not too bad. Isn't it usually 3-4 wrong for 700 in math?</p>
<p>Prism- 2 (maybe 3) for math if you get lucky
3-4 for CR depending on curve
10 essay, 67 mc (5 wrong 1 omit)
12 essay, 65 mc (7 wrong)
8 essay, 72 mc (3-4 wrong)
9 essay, 71 mc (3-4 wrong)</p>
<p>thanks man</p>
<p>paki, in Jan 28th test, i got 9 on writing and 69mc. that was a 700</p>
<p>3-4 will probably be <em>slightly</em> higher than 700, but I'm not sure.</p>
<p>i think 3-4 is a 730 if you have a 9 on the essay</p>
<p>3-4 on the entire sections of the subject in the whole test?</p>
<p>for writng part 3-4 on the entire section</p>
<p>regurgitatingcow- I was just giving the gist of it; didn't factor in every possibility as curve is different for every test.</p>
<p>Im getting 7 wrong I think with an 8 on the essay, with more review I could probably get that down to zip but I dont know whot to improve on the essay</p>
<p>On CollegeBoard Test 6 for the Online Course, -4 was a 76, and a -6 was a 73. I personally felt April Writing was hard, so I'm guessing the curve will be similar to this one, if not a bit more tough.</p>
<p>The blue book has Raw Score to Scaled Score conversion ranges. If you reverse the mapping, it gets pretty simple:</p>

700 - 46-51 (miss at most 8, at least 3)</p>
<p>How to use the above charts.</p>
<p>Let's say I omitted 6 problems (61 raw score) on CR. That means the best possible score I could have (if ETS decides on the easiest curve possible) is a 770.</p>
<p>On the other hand, let's say I omitted 3 problems (64 raw score) on CR. The worst score I could have (if it was a really easy test and it's a harsh curve) is a 720 (you have to miss at least 4 in order to get into the 710- range).</p>
<p>Writing - out of 49 points
Writing is pretty screwed up. You can get a 78 even if you get a 49 on the raw score (if the curve is tough), but you can also get an 800 on the section missing 10 questions and a 12 on the essay (if the curve is really easy).</p>
<p>If you get a zero on the essay, your maximum score is a 690. If you get a 12 on the essay, your minimum score is a 300.</p>
<p>Addendum: If you incorrectly answer three problems, that's as good as "missing" 4 problems (guessing penalty).</p>
<p>To the thread poster: On hard tests you can miss 23, on easy tests you can only miss 13.</p>

<p>you mean that backwards</p>

<p>No, I don't. Hard tests are curved more leniently because fewer people get high scores. Therefore, you can miss more on a hard test. On an easy test, you need to get more correct to be "competitive" enough to get a higher score.</p>
<p>Praying that writing curve is like the second one. 800 with 10 wrong and a 12 on essay sounds fine to me! Hopefully it will be a lenient curve since most people felt writing was difficult.</p>
<p>i think that is almost impossible</p>
<p>Ten wrong and a 12 (essay) resulting in an 800 seems almost impossible, but 5 or 6wrong with a 12 (essay) will probably be around 780.</p>
