<p>Say I get a 2000 on the new one. How much would that be on the old one? I don't think subtracting the writing score works since there are other differences. So what do you think?</p>
<p>I set up a proprotion. ( X/1600 = 2000/2400 )</p>
<p>COuld just divide by 1.5. However, you may want to include other factors such as length, and the time impact on concentration. Who knows what other intangibles. </p>
<p>Remember beauty is in the high of the beholder.</p>
<p>In my experiences, people have regarded 1500+ as elite.</p>
<p>Maybe that 1500 will change to 2200 because of the difficulty of the new test.
Maybe it will change to 2300 because of the ease of the test?</p>
<p>People like clean numbers...</p>
<p>1333.33333333333333333333333333333333333333...
No clean number here.</p>
<p>Anyhow, I definitely scored higher than I did before. :) Hurrah!</p>
<p>its irrevelant to compare new scores with the old sats... the porportion thing is not an accurate indicator because of the new writing section added to the sat...</p>
<p>it is better if u simply look at percentiles since its relative, if i recall a 1500 is up in the 98-99%tiles and a 210 i believe is enough to be in the 98-99% tile on the psat... the new sat will reflect the psat and with the addition of the essay, i say a 207 or 208 wuld be equivalent to a 1500 - percentile speaking. and of course thats the only important thing. </p>
<p>i mean who cares if u score a 2080 insted of a 2200 on the new sat when either way, 99 others score below u.. u know wat i mean?</p>
<p>Aha! The proportion is the Choice A! </p>
<p>But thousands others would be above me. :(</p>
<p>prelewd, I think of it the same way as in percentiles, not scores really. I was wondering, 1000 was considered average. correct?...on the older test. What will be the average score on the new test..a 1500?</p>
<p>Using what prelude said, since the PSAT does contain all sections of the new SAT, just add a zero to the PSAT score. I imagine the precentiles would remain somewhat the same. So if 210 is 98-99% then shouldn't 2100 also be 98-99%?</p>
<p>Actually, scores go up probably by 60 points on average from the PSAT to the SAT (without preparation), so you should take that into account when comparing percentiles from the two tests.</p>
