<p>Lol I just looked at the average SAT for the public school that is like five minutes away, it’s HIGHER!</p>
<p>^ is there a place to look that stuff up?</p>
<p>The county district here has a profile online for each of the public schools.</p>
<p>This is blowing my mind, wth are my parents paying for?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yep, 3 incorrect translates to -4. Those quarter points are killers.</p>
<p>I’ve been upset about -2 not being 800, but I guess I should just be glad with my 790. If I had gotten one more wrong, I would have missed 2300 by a fair margin.</p>
<p>everyone on this whole site is really smart… i got</p>
<p>a 1770 </p>
<p>:-(</p>
<p>That’s two-fifty above average, go feel good about yourself.</p>
<p>My score report has really confused my about the math section. I know two of the questions I got wrong, but I figured the other two questions I missed were easy ones. Turns out I missed three hard and one medium, which is weird because we discussed virtually all the hard ones on the math thread and I only had two of them wrong.</p>
<p>Is anyone else unnerved by the retake predictions part? Apparently, my CR on average would go down 35 and writing would go down 75.</p>
<p>gawwww I ended up with</p>
<p>590 CR
790 Math
700 Writing…I got -4 and 9 on the essay,why is my writing score THIS low?</p>
<p>because ur essay score isnt that good…9/12</p>
<p>my school is effing stupid. i prob got the highest score in my whole school. people freaked out at my score.</p>
<p>what’d you get pigs<em>at</em>sea?</p>
<p>2290
10char</p>
<p>What sections did you miss your questions in? I got the same number wrong as you but a 2310.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That is only assuming that you don’t study in between tests, which obviously isn’t the case for many.</p>
<p>OMG the curve was CRUEL for CR… seriously 
I thought I got at least 13-15wrong cuz I got 630
but it turned out that I got only 9 wrong
What the heck… isn’t that suppose to be like 650???
Shouldn’t there be a bigger curve for the CR? I thought it was freaking hard
esp. the passage about the programmer/writer one…
oh well, guess i have to take it again in October.</p>
<p>Join the unhappy-with-the-CR-curve club :)</p>
<p>“Is anyone else unnerved by the retake predictions part? Apparently, my CR on average would go down 35 and writing would go down 75.”</p>
<p>Yeah, it’s sorta alarming. It’s sorta hard to replicate such a high score.</p>
<p>The main reason people retake with a 790 or whatever is because they did much worse on the other sections. The high scores regress to the mean.</p>
<p>There are probably only a few who take it again because they think they can get an 800. Among this group, the score drop is probably smaller or even nonexistent.</p>
<p>Makes sense.</p>
<p>It’s still kind of disconcerting, though, because it suggests that a lot of people get high scores through luck.</p>
<p>Wait I got a 630 on CR and I got 11 wrong… is that accurate? I’m not sure how to estimate scores based on how many I got wrong…</p>
