How many wrong for 800's?

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>I understand that people are receiving 800's in sections even after missing a few questions. Is it true that you can miss about 2 in CR, 2 in Math, and then score a 9 on the essay and still receive a 2400? I don't like the thought of this to be honest.
It seems to be that you either receive an 800, or you jump down to a 760ish.
I don't believe I have ever seen someone say they received a 790 in a section :/</p>

<p>I'm specifically interested in the writing section. I anticipate a 10 on my essay, and probably 2 MC errors. What score could I expect to get with this? 750?</p>

2

<p>-2 for 800 in CR
-0 for 800 in math
-2 and 12 essay for 800 in writing</p>

<p>you can miss ZERO IN MATH, but perhaps one if you ARE REALLY LUCKY. very rarely does the latter happen.VERY RARELY. for cr, you can miss like 2 raw points, maybe three if the test was extremely hard.
sorry i can’t say much on W. perhaps you should look up the pdf file with the released sat curves and use your own judgment (mine won’t match yours)</p>

<p>lol i’ve received 790 before on math hecka annoying</p>

5

<p>790 is still impressive!</p>

6

<p>Kid at my school got a 2360 but his breakdown was 790CR/780M/790W. No 800s…</p>

7

<p>I got a 790 on Critical Reading. </p>

<p>For math, how does the vicious curve work out? </p>

<p>-1 -> 760?
-2 -> 740?</p>

<p>-1 is 770-790 in math; november test will either be 770-780. -2 was 750 in october, typically 740-760. 10 essay with 2 wrong in mc is typically around 770-780 but writing was pretty difficult this time around</p>

9

<p>-_- why do they have to be so hard on math…</p>

<p>i think I’m getting -1 on my Nov international test and I was hoping it would be a 800, but it seems that’s not gonna happen lol</p>

<p>Thanks a lot for all the relevant input.
Math is always my lowest. I believe I missed around 6 on this last test.
Hopefully I can still pull close to a 700 :/</p>

<p>750 Writing is my goal. Maybe 3 MC errors and 10 essay…</p>
