<p>chance at January test. What do you all feel who took the Jan and March tests like me? Which one is easy?</p>
<p>Definately the january test… this march test was definately harder than the jan test! especially reading and writing…i think math was easier, but writing and reading were def harder!</p>
<p>for me, although I didn’t take January, March was indeed harder. I say the November (the previous time I took mine) one was easier, but math is easier for March.</p>
<p>it was my first time taking it in March, but I thought the math was easy :/</p>
<p>unless I made some really stupid mistakes .___.</p>
<p>Compared to the October test the Math was easier, the vocab was easier, the passages were harder, writing I can’t comment on since I have no idea how I did.</p>
<p>The math was about the same as the January test, vocab was about the same, passages were easier (I’m thinking of the road trip passage in January), writing mc was the same or a little harder, essay question was an easy topic (the question about leaders at least).</p>
<p>Vocab was wayy easier than the PSAT imho. Usually I miss 2 sentence completions per section and this time I think I only missed 1 or 2 total. I thought math was really easy but I that’s what I thought on the PSAT too and I bombed it. Writing killed me like it always does.</p>
<p>I thought the March CR was slightly harder than January’s, but I seem to have done well anyway.</p>
<p>Math was the same as January (so expect a similar curve). Writing was about the same as well.</p>
<p>@Sententia I disagree </p>
<p>Math was the same or a bit harder than January (Jan was ridiculously easy), but the Vocab/Passages were much harder in March than in January. The road trip passage was pretty easy, many people just tripped up on answering a question based off of the lines given rather than in the context of the entire passage. Writing was a bit easier than Jan but the Jan curve was extremely generous and March should be somewhat generous as well.</p>
<p>January math was easy; so was this. I don’t think vocab was so difficult this time – not because the words were easier, but because on most of the “hard” questions, you could easily eliminate all of the wrong choices. I don’t know why people think the passages were difficult this time, there were a few slightly more ambiguous questions scattered throughout, but overall the questions were very straightforward. The only hard writing question in January was “had swum”, although I don’t think writing difficulty has much variation.</p>
<p>Vocab in January was ridiculously easy so March was harder in comparison. The questions in the March passages were much less straightforward than those in January with the exception of the dinosaur passage which may be the easiest passage to date.</p>
<p>January Math was easy. March math was easier
Writing was about the same</p>
<p>March Reading was horrible. January was bad for me (I didn’t study at all), but even after studying, March Reading ended up being ridiculous. I’ll probably retake in June or in the fall.</p>
<p>The March test was definitely harder overall for me, too! </p>
<p>I wish I could have a second go at the January test, as well, as it was the day after my midterms finished. I think I was still coping with residual stress, didn’t study enough because all of my time had been dedicated to exams, and was half asleep because of the long study nights the whole week prior. But oh well, taking the SAT again, I suppose…</p>
<p>What was the reading and writing curve in january?</p>
<p>I didn’t take January, so I wouldn’t know. However, I took one in October. Comparison to that:</p>
<p>-Math: both were ridiculously easy, though I think this one might have been even easier. October math curve was -1 = -30 pts so…ouch if anyone missed any!
-CR: HOLY GUACAMOLE this one was hard! I thought I bombed Oct, and now I think I did worse on this one. (BTW DID ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THE TYPO ON SECTION 8 -20 minute section- #3, where it said “The UNCTIOUS senator ____” hahaha fail?)
-Writing: LOVED this time’s essay prompt. I thought some Qs were rather misleading/confusing.</p>
<p>actually there is such word as unctious – it’s defined in the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary.</p>
<p>You didn’t really need to know the meaning of the word to decipher the answer for that one.</p>
<p>By the way, it said Unctuous not unctious. It was describing a senator, so the senator was oily or gunky? ;</p>
