December SSAT results

<p>How did your son do on his SSAT, neatoburrito?</p>

<p>No problem. Thanks for the information, Im going to brave the snow and hopefully my results wil be awaiting me. I think I didn’t bubble right but that could just be me being pessismistic. I wish I could edit my previous post, reading over it makes me wince.</p>

<p>He did great! No worries. The October test was a “warm up” for him, but he did wonderfully. I had registered him for both the Oct and Dec tests at the same time. He wasn’t particularly happy with his essay in Oct so he took it again in Dec. I don’t expect much of a change in the score. But…he said he liked his essay much better! Because the Oct test was kind of a “dry run” to see how he’d do, he hadn’t prepared before he took it. Then, since his scores were sufficient, he didn’t do anything in between. Looks like I wasted 120.00. He wasn’t 99%tile on the Oct test so there is theoretical room for improvement, but I don’t think it really matters.</p>

<p>congratulations - that’s a good start of the path leading to a great school.</p>

<p>blueraven,</p>

<p>Sorry for my misleading. </p>

<p>I called SSAT this morning when not receiving anything, they told me it would be tomorrow, through out the day, not at a certain time.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>No problem :slight_smile: Im just going nuts over it otherwise I wouldn’t care… Bad thing is my father is at work tommorow, so I’m not going to be able to know till he gets home. /sigh/ Thanks for the information, it’s more than I’ve been able to find on the web.</p>

<p>I got it!!!</p>

<p>98th overall-even with my stingy math mark.
I am beyond shock; I spent the whole weekend preparing my parents for a high 70s.</p>

<p>Congrats Blue! Check the ssat off your list and start working on those essays!</p>

<p>(It’ll be so weird if any of you girls end up at school with my son next year.)</p>

<p>Congrats BlueRaven! That’s awesome!</p>

<p>I still haven’t received my results through email. Hopefully they’ll come soon!</p>

<p>Thank you so much. I truly was not expecting this at all. My mother tells me she’ll never trust my test assesment again. Good Luck bunnywins! I got mine at 10:03am eastern time; hope you get yours soon. To what schools is your son applying neato? If you don’t mind me asking. I think it’s cool your on this forum, I can’t imagine my parents joining in a million years.</p>

<p>SSAT website says I’ll get my scores tomorrow. I can’t wait!</p>

<p>Congrats BlueRaven1! You’re amazing! <em>sarcasm</em>
I got 130th overall. Surprise?</p>

<p>I don’t think I’m amazing. It just seemed appropriate to follow up on this thread seeing as I was so anxious yesterday. I truly am surprised at how well I did but know that as long as you score 80> the SSAT doesn’t really matter.</p>

<p>I just got my SSAT scores and got a 2184.
I am an 8th grader.
Do I have a chance to get into Andover?
Verbal 722
Math 767
Reading 695</p>

<p>Would you mind giving the percentilles?</p>

<p>The Math score looks great though.</p>

<p>My son got his through email.</p>

<p>Verbal Score 770
(Personal Score Range: 749 - 791, SSAT Percentile 96%)</p>

<p>Math Score 776
(Personal Score Range: 755 - 797, SSAT Percentile 91%)</p>

<p>Reading Score 761
(Personal Score Range: 740 - 782, SSAT Percentile 99%)</p>

<p>Total Score 2307
(Personal Score Range: NA, SSAT Percentile 99%)</p>

<p>He is a 8th grader.</p>

<p>Congratulations! Those are great scores… Those are similiar to mine 'cept my Math score sucked. Well i guess it didn’t suck but it bought my other scores down.</p>

<p>How many questions did he do wrong or leave blank to get a reading score of 761? Reading is usually the easiest for everyone but the trickest score wise.</p>

<p>Two wrong, zero omitted.</p>

<p>Then it varies from test to test. Sometimes 2 wrong/0 omit could drag the percentile to 97% - not that it’d make a difference in admission, but just an observation.</p>
