December 2010 SAT - General - Curves, Versions, DH

<p>i didn’t take october but out of the 20 so SAT tests i’ve practice with this one the jounralist and archectural was killer… sooo hard</p>

<p>ouch, i mean if it’s STELLAR then you’ll be fine. You can write one para and still 12</p>

<p>depends on the reader, it is opinion after all.</p>

<p>i am really surprised with how different the tests were this time, it seems like there were several different versions even within the country.</p>

<p>Direct Hits DESTROYED the CR with the Japanese translator and farming. Hits in at least the 20’s.</p>

<p>any estimates on the curve?</p>

<p>So everybody was talking about a modern hero topic, but I had a topic about communication and less learning or something. I thought the SAT had a single topic in the same month?</p>

<p>DH nailed the Indian woman/architecture/ignorance version as well (though more hits were on wrong answers)</p>

<p>Yeah, confused about this too. Talked with a friend afterward, and seemed like we didnt have ANY sections that were the same.</p>

<p>Pretty much this test determines what college I will get into. I will be nervous until the scores come out in three weeks, so I just want some reassurance. Based upon the difficulty of this month’s SAT (one with cow question)… how would I score with these estimated raw scores?
Last month I scored a 1920, so I am hoping to get over the 2000 benchmark.</p>

<p>Critical Reading: -6
Writing: 11 Essay -7 or 8 Multiple choice
Math: Omit 4, -12</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>West Coast/East Coast prompts are different. I’m in CA and I had communication/information/learning less.</p>

<p>oh shizzle thanks 314 save my ass. i was so scared for a sec there.</p>

<p>You guys really think the CR curve is going to be good?</p>

<p>I definitely agree that the vocab is hard, but the passages were somewhat easy…im guessing medium (but I hope it is good!!)</p>

<p>so do you guys think there will be different curves for each version of the test? if so, what would you expect the curve to be for the Cr (with the cows)</p>

<p>No problem. If you’re curious, most SAT’s (like November 2010) have 4 total prompts: [SAT</a> - Essay Prompts](<a href=“http://professionals.collegeboard.com/testing/sat-reasoning/prep/essay-prompts]SAT”>SAT Practice and Preparation – SAT Suite | College Board)</p>

<p>dhast i completely agree. the vocab was probably the most difficult part of the test for me, the passages, math, and grammar were jokes.</p>

<p>Curve question:
1 Wrong on Math MC = What score?
1 Wrong on Math Grid-In = What score?
1 Wrong on math MC, 1 wrong on grid-in = What score?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Do you think -2 will be 800 for CR this time?</p>

<p>^Hasn’t it almost always been that way?</p>

<p>In this past year, probably <1/2 of the tests have had -2 = 800</p>

<p>some this year even had like -1=790 (might have been january)</p>

<p>I think May was like -2 = 790</p>
