<p>^Yea, but on the other threads, there are people already receiving PSAT scores from their counselors and school.</p>
<p>oh man I'm SO nervous!</p>
<p>I got my PSAT results back on wednesday and got a 184. 63 CR, 48 Math, 73 Writing. I definitely felt that the math was the hardest section and it was harder than the math I was studying with it. On CR, I correctly answered 38/48 questions: omitted one question and got 9 wrong. On the math, which I totally bombed, I answered correctly 20/38 math problems: omitted six questions and answered incorrectly 12 questions. On the writing, I got the question wrong that goes something like "Nothing will be quite as devastating to the school as Mr. Johnson's departure", made a stupid mistake. I also got #29 wrong, so in total 2 questions wrong and 0 omitted brought me down to a 730. Seems a little harsh to me.</p>
<p>aw man, im pretty sure I got 3 wrong on writing, i hope its a 70.</p>
<p>^the most -3 will be on writing will be a 69^</p>
<p>i hate that writing curve!!!</p>
<p>^Do they not curve the writing section as much as others or do they curve it more? I'm slightly confused.</p>
<p>Sasquatch129</p>
<p>Are you sure it was "Nothing will be quite as devastating to the school as Mr. Johnson's departure"</p>
<p>The choices (disputed ones) were "Mr. Bret's departure will be diminish the school like NONE OTHER" or like "Nothing will be diminish the school's reputation like MR. BRET'S DEPARTURE WILL"-when you say "Nothing will be quite as devastating", are you implying the second one is right (because I know it was Mr. Bret not Mr. Johnson)</p>
<p>Can you please check in your book and answer to see which one was right? (Like EXACT sentence)</p>
<p>Sorry, if i sound commanding, but I need that question so I dont get -4 on writing guaranteed (and probably miss NMSF)
And since Ive been curious about that question ever since I took it over a month ago</p>
<p>I think you're the one that I PM'd about this question. For anybody else, they made an error at my school so I ended up without a PSAT booklet, so I can't lookup questions, just answers on my scoring report. Also, the actual terms I had like devastating aren't the ones from the actual question, it was just to give you the gist of it. :)</p>
<p>Sasquatch, what is the correct answer for the last question on the writing section.</p>
<p>^ The correct answer for the last question was B.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the question asking whether a phrase fitted better before sentence 5 or after sentence 10?</p>
<p>We get out PSAT booklets back??
Like the actual test we took??</p>
<p>I didn't know that...
I didn't get my back last year when I took it as a sophmore!</p>
<p>@ hoishia: do you remember which answer "b" went with?</p>
<p>The ordering always goes in ascending numerical order, so it would have gone something like</p>
<p>a.) sentence 1
b.) sentence 5
c.) sentence 7
d.) sentence 10
3.) sentence 13</p>
<p>So it looks like 5 was the answer, which is what i put, yey</p>
<p>^ sasquatch, ok gotcha, nvm about the pm.
smile- yes, we get our booklets back
fluffy- I remember, but I don't know the answer to that as I dont have my test yet.
Some hard writing questions I remember:
1. The question about "the debaters were competing ON every occasion" or "competing AT every occasion." I put "competing ON" and I think that is right. Can anyone please confirm, thanks!</p>
<ol>
<li><p>The question about Mr. Bret's departure "like none other" or something else. I put "like none other" so is that right? </p></li>
<li><p>One of the last few questions talking about where the sentence fits.."before sentence 5" or "after sentence 10." I forgot what I put...ahhh
My prediction for my writing score is -3, which is like 73?
Math better be 80, and reading is probably a 70 or 72. Total score predicted= 225. Hopefully.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>no, -3 in writing is a 69 from what others say. I know, it sucks :[</p>
<p>^noooooo, well I know for sure that I got -2 wrong (the one about "Mr. Bret's departure" and the one about the paragraphs at the end...) maybe one more problem wrong..ahhhhh. Hopefully I get 80 on math and 72 on reading or so to get NMSF (requires a 219 in my state).</p>
<p>Noo! I now realize that I am getting so many problems wrong. XD.</p>
