<p>wanted a 2300 at least. can you believe that everyone else in my school gets that?
i swear reading completely despises me. Does anyone else feel this way?</p>
<p>Same score as my PSAT… I suppose it is a good indicator. A lot of my friends who got similar PSAT scores were pretty disappointed with their results.</p>
<p>So so disappointed.

<p>Do colleges take highest score from EACH section or highest TOTAL. But it really does not matter since everything is low M, W and essay went up but R went down! I want to know this for UMD.</p>

<p>My first time taking it in high school
I wanted a 2200+, so I’m happy.
I considered retaking because I kind of want a 2280, but I think I’m just going to focus on subject tests instead.</p>
<p>CR:600 M:760 W:710
I am depressed about my Math because I thought I could get a 800… And maybe next time I will work on my CR harder and tried to get a 700!</p>
<p>I take it in march and I’m studying really hard any suggestions…my biggest problems arise from my Critical Reading and 1-3 careless errors in the Math…Writing I just need to finish my essay well.</p>
<p>My daughter took the test is January and we got her score report today online. A couple things surprised me. She only missed two difficult math questions and received a score of 740 - meaning 30 points off for each question she missed. (I know the level of difficulty doesn’t matter in scoring.) In CR, she missed 8 questions and recieved a 690 - meaning less than 14 points for each question missed. I know it’s based on a curve of how everyone did but the math score deduction was surprising. I called collegeboard.com and asked for the chart that provides scoring based on the number of questions answered correctly but they said they don’t publish that information. (That chart is available for the PSAT.) Would others be willing to post their scores with the number of questions missed? Of course, you talented students that received a 2400 don’t need to post : ) </p>
<p>The CR curve (seeing as this was apparently a hard CR test) was a bit on the easy side, seeing as how I got 4 wrong which is -4, plus penalty = -5 and I got 760. Math, I hit an unlucky spot because I missed 3, penalty rounds that up to -1 + -3 omit = -4 = 700 M. </p>
<p>It appears there must have been a large group of students who answered all questions correctly in math, lowering the scores for those that didn’t. Oh well.</p>
<p>I’ve never heard before that the curve is pre-determined. I thought both the SAT and ACT were based on how the population of students taking the same test scored. Do you mind me asking where you found this out? What doesn’t make sense then is why the math scoring is so much more rigorous than CR & W.</p>
<p>I’m just hoping to understand the scoring process better so any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks.</p>
<p>^There’s nothing wrong with that; Math is a more “solid” subject and there is always a definite answer, while CR is a bit more subjective (though CB does a good job keeping everything objective, but still).</p>
