<p>Is there a place that shows the general curves for different SAT II tests?</p>
<p>if you have the real sat book you can look in it</p>

<p>Click around a bit and you can find curves to several tests.</p>
<p>Those are the actual curves? Because in my Barrons SAT II Chem book the curve is a lot more lenient and it says that the curve mentioned is the general pattern.</p>
<p>I think the chem curve changed fairly recently... you used to be able to miss ~8 and still get an 800, now it's 4 or 5.</p>
<p>^
Really? can anyone confirm that? why do all my practice books say you can miss like 7 or 8... I bought 2007-2008 editions for kaplan, PR, and barrons. Also the one on Sparknotes it's the curve for 80 question test, it's 85</p>
<p>Does that mean the test got easier?</p>
<p>I asked that too... but no, it did not. This whole exchange was on some thread on here several weeks ago, but I forget what it was called.</p>
<p>The Math II curve is usually very generous with a possibility of a 800 w/ 5 wrong. The US history is even more generous with a possibility of a 800 with close to 9 wrong...</p>
<p>Raw to Scale Score Conversions from The Official Study Guide for All SAT Subject Tests from the CollegeBoard. These are from the actual Sept. 2005 test tables.</p>
<p>These will, of course, vary from test period to test period, but are generally good guides.</p>

lol is this for sure? on spark notes it's like 68 right and 7 wrong for 800.... and in princeton preview (older edition) it's 60... so I like don't get it.. :P</p>
<p>Confirmed: Physics table is as posted. 16, BTW, gets 500. Lowest possible score is 270 (-19) according to the table.</p>
<p>Thank you, Descartesz! I now know my guessing strategy.</p>
<p>What's a 750 for chem please?</p>
<p>Descartesz: What about literature?</p>
