<p>I heard a rumor, and I'd like to know if it is true. Is it true that you can get EVERY algebra 2 question wrong on the new SAT math section, and STILL get a perfect score? Also, how many math questions can you get wrong and still get an 800 math score?

<p>Of course its wrong. That's just common sense. :)
I think you can get one wrong and still get perfect, but that varies by test date.</p>
<p>unless ALL the algebra 2 questions falls in the experimental.</p>
<p>What is the average number of algebra 2 questions on the new SAT?
Ryan</p>
<p>typically, 3-5 Alg II problems depending on test administration. So, the rumor s/b that you could miss all the Alg II problems, and still score high ~700, assuming, of course, that every other answer is correct.</p>
<p>actually, ~3 wrong would put you at the low-mid 700s, depending on the curve.</p>
<p>I usually get 1 wrong in every section max. Thats 3 wrong in total, and my score is fluctuating in the 740-760 range.</p>
<p>I thought that you could miss a number of questions in the verbal and math and still get an 800</p>
<p>Math has an extremely harsh curve. For most test forms, if you miss 1 raw point on it, you cannot get an 800. It really sucks.</p>
<p>The math curve is pretty tough. I missed one on the June test and got a 790.</p>
<p>The math curve is pretty tough.</p>
<p>I think you may be talking about Math Level 2....in which case you can miss like 5 or 6 (?)....</p>
<p>I got two wrong and I omitted one and I got a 720. :(</p>
<p>On average can you miss 7 on the Verbal (CR) and still get a 700 (or slightly higher)?</p>
<p>SAT I maths has a cruel curve. you need to get either ALL right or OMIT one to get an 800.</p>
<p>Omitting one has the same effect as getting one wrong, banedon. On most of the tests, you had to get them ALL correct to get 800. There was definitely 1 test that allowed you to omit 2 and keep the 800 though. But don't count on that happening on your test.</p>
