Guessing your SAT score for October test

Test Preparation
1

<p>Okay. You know how SAT has a curve according to how the students did on that test date.
By what you have read so far on this site you will notice some saying it was hard and some saying it was manageable. What I want to ask is....
Can you guys just estimate the curve for October 2009 SAT?
like for example how many you think we can get wrong to get 800 on math or something... </p>

<p>Can you do that for each section. How many you can get right to be 700
Math-
Reading-
Writing-</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>math -5 for 700
reading - -8 for 700
writing -6 for 700 with a 10 essay</p>

3

<p>I dont think the curve will be too generous…
0 Wrong math - 800</p>

<p>CR was okay…
And Writing was okay/easy</p>

4

<p>I agree. </p>

<p>Actually I’d say the curve for CR would be a bit higher than usual. Depends, because seems to me everyone bombed the vocab section to a certain extent. Passages were actually on the easy side.</p>

<p>Math: not too hopeful here. I agree -0 = 800, and any mistakes < 700s</p>

<p>Writing: just the usual. Not easy, not hard. Depending on the essay score and the MC subscore, total will vary but think “average” for this section.</p>

5

<p>I’m pretty confident.
Math - 800
Reading 650-700
Writing 600 +/- 50 - all depends on the essay and whether they will be able to read it…</p>

6

<p>Math - No curve</p>

<p>Reading - + 30 pts</p>

<p>Writing - + 20 pts</p>

7

<p>I’m less sonfident now cause I found out I’m an idiot.</p>

<p>Math - one mistake
Critical so far I know about 4 mistakes from the first 28 questions. Later I haven’t figured out yet. What score would I have with 8 and with 10 mistakes?</p>

8

<p>So far I’m sure about 36 right answers from 41. If I could get 20 from the remaining 26 I would be satisfied. I guess it would be like 670-690.</p>

9

<p>I would say, realistically, based on the curve for paste tests, for a 700,
Math- a 49, so about 4 wrong
Writing- a 45 with a 9 essay, so about 3 wrong
CR - a 58, so about 7 wrong.</p>

<p>Personally, I’m expecting
Math: 720. I got a some wrong that I know of already, so 3 wrong = 50
CR: 650. Terrible. Blanked out during that question about woman historians. Misread a couple of questions. 12 wrong = 67-(12+3) = 52
Writing: 700 . 3 wrong + 9 essay = 45</p>

<p>A composite of 2070. Disappointing considering I scored 2200 consistently in practice tests.</p>
