May 2010 SAT Results Thread

<p>2nd time trying…but far worse than I expected…
CR 740
MA 800
WR 670
total 2210 super 2240</p>

<p>I just can’t figure out my WR part…I used to get 750+ score in my practice
and can anyone tell me do I need to retake the test? cause I want to get in the Ivies</p>

<p>^@austrianpog - I get this message:</p>

<p>Please check back in 7-10 days for May SAT scores
Although most scores for the May SAT are online now, a small number are not yet available. If your scores are not currently available online, please learn why and check back in about a week.</p>

<p>However, my SAT scores are out (760M, 740CR, 680W). I don’t know what’s going on… might give CB a call.</p>

<p>740 CR
800 M
700 W (odd. this is usually my best section)</p>

<p>I might retake in October to boos my sorry Writing score.</p>

<p>I think CC would tend to be on the higher end of the SAT score pool so if you were happy with your scores before you saw others here you should stay happy. I could never score anything close to the lowest scores posted here (which are still excellent!) and I’ve done OK with life!</p>

<p>My S as follows:</p>

<p>CR 710
Math 690
Writing 720 Essay 10</p>

<p>Total 2120</p>

<p>Second time taking it and first time studying. </p>

<p>Increase from 2000 in December. From what I can tell those scores put him at the low end of the Ivies but at least he’s in the ballpark-and I hope he is happy because his Mom is.</p>

<p>Congratulations to all those who are happy with their results. Remember this is just one part of the process-I am told that colleges are looking at the whole picture.</p>

<p>dissapointed. only 10 points higher than my PSAT despite a month working with a tutor.</p>

<p>from PSAT My writing and math went down and my reading went up.</p>

<p>where can i see my essay score? it only shows score for each category not the essay</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Same.</p>

<p>10char</p>

<p>CR - 750
Math - 780
Writing - 740</p>

<p>Total = 2270</p>

<p>I’m very very disappointed in my Math and Writing scores. I got so low in Writing…</p>

<p>I was only concerned about my Essay, but I somehow miraculously got a 12 in my essay, which means I did HORRIBLE in multiply choice.</p>

<p>oh god. i did sooo much worse than i expected
■■■.</p>

<p>go to the “for students” homepage, and click where it says SAT score reports are out…</p>

<p>i got a</p>

<p>Critical Reading 620
Math 610
Writing 640 </p>

<pre><code>Essay 10 (score range: 2-12)
</code></pre>

<p>Dissapointed, considering my PSAT was higher in writing, but lower in the other 2 categories.</p>

<p>CR: 630 <- ■■■. Really now? Went up by 10 poitns from last year. Thanks, but no thanks.
Math: 760 <- Probably Stupid Mistakes, but didn’t approve. Curse you stupid mistakes!
Writing: 790 <- OMGWATYAY! Writing is usually my worst section, and math being my best, and I’m absolutely astonished that I got a perfect on my Writing Multiple Choice (9 on Essay), AND I did better on writing than math. :open_mouth: I improved 220 points. :D</p>

<p>Too bad Asian parents only look at the 630. >.> And the 760 because I was going for an 800, but w/e.</p>

<p>My son got:</p>

<p>CR 800
W 720
M: 640</p>

<p>Total: 2160</p>

<p>This is his first time (and I am sure it will be his last!) taking it. Math is not his strongest subject obviously. But I think he did pretty well considering he didn’t do a review course or any practice tests. Is it really worth taking again?! He is looking at schools like NYU, Northwestern and maybe Columbia.</p>

<p>720/730/640
Which is 2090, and over my 1950 minimum… definitely NOT retaking this test lol.
Now to study my butt off over the SATIIs…
ALSO: Where can I find my Essay score? I don’t see where to find it…</p>

<p>my first time as a sophomore:</p>

<p>math:780
cr: 740
wr: 650 (essay 8)</p>

<p>total: 2170</p>

<p>does anyone have any tips on how to improve the writing section?</p>

<p>@bernier93: It should be under your writing score, where it states your multiple choice score and range, then your essay score and range.</p>

<p>^ Occasionally, some people’s don’t show up.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I think it’s safe to assume it isn’t there :)</p>

<p>770 W
760 M
720 CR
so, a 2250 for my second time taking it, which is better than I expected after that CR. My first test was an 800W, 670M, 730CR in april. I can’t believe I got a 760 on the math… beyond happy, was really only aiming for above a 700. Disappointed in writing mostly because I let nerves got to me and went from getting a 12 essay and none wrong to -4 and a 10… oh well. CR gave me a really hard time-vocab mostly.
Now, the real question: retake? my superscore would be a 2290 (argh! 10 away!) and CR/M a 1490 superscored. I’m a junior right now, looking at Duke, Upenn, Brown, Dartmouth… I really think I could get another 800 in W and improve CR if I dedicated some time this summer. Would it be worth it?</p>

<p>Don’t go to the link where you have to sign in again… like where you registered.</p>

<p>Use the link on “My Organizer” that is in red at the top of the page. At the top it says “Your May Scores are In!” and reads “View My Scores.” It will take you to the breakdown including the essay mark…</p>

<p>I can attest to what austrianpog said in the previous post. At first, I did not see my essay score when I went to College Board - Sign-in. However, when I followed what someone else said in page 3 of this thread, ta-dah I saw my essay and MC scores. :)</p>
