<p>Oh darn. I skipped like 5. Could have missed 1. I should've guessed on some of them. I hate myself.</p>
<p>So, in January, you could've missed three and still scored an 800 on the Verbal and two on the Math?</p>
<p>Yeah, this is for each point off.</p>
<p>So in January, you could have gotten 2 wrong and left 1 blank to get a 800. 3 wrong would get you another raw point off bringing you to 780</p>
<p><em>sigh</em> </p>
<p>I hope I did well. I know I didn't miss or omitted in total more than 7 on the Math section, and 4 on the Verbal...</p>
<p><em>prays</em></p>
<p>It's so much better if you guess on the ones you are unsure about, basically leaving one blank decreases your score.</p>
<p>Getting them wrong is worse though, I've just realised.. because when you get one wrong not only do you get the same effect as having missed it out, you also get a further 1/4 point knocked off (because it's questions answered correctly-[questions answered incorrectly/4])</p>
<p>Is everything in America this fricking complicated?! :)</p>
<p>lol wow, thanks for putting it that way, so I'm glad I omitted a few of the math questions.</p>
<p>yeah</p>
<p>if you think about it for everyone you miss, you really lose 1.25 points
if there were a total of 10 questions and you missed 1, you get 8.75</p>
<p>Hard tests? How do they determine that? According to raw score distribution? Or what THEY consider to be hard?</p>
<p>Wait how is raw score calculated???
Does everyone start off w\ a 54 and each incorrect is -.25???</p>
<p>or </p>
<p>Is 1 mark for each correct and -.25 off.
If so...getting 4 wrong and ommiting 2 on Math would get a 47 raw score??
\right answrs( 54 - 6 ) - \wrong answers\4(1/4) = 47
That would suck. btw what would a 47 give you for the scaled score???</p>
