October 15 PSAT Discussion

<p>I thought the actual PSAT was much harder than the practice test they gave us. I actually got one in the math section that doesn't count an unscorable one, #36. Anyone else. What did other people get? I got a 190, eh, better than a 181 I got last year</p>

<p>^ I concur with you about the PSAT being harder than the practice test they gave out, especially on the math. I was flustered on so many of the questions.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember what they got for the first grid-in math question? It was like this weird shape and you had to find the length of one side..</p>

<p>What was the unscorable question(#36) about?</p>

<p>I get my scores today...AHHH</p>

<p>WOOOOOT got my scores!
80 CR
80 M
76 WR</p>

<p>Im so happyy!</p>

<p>People got their scores today? Did everyone get their scores?</p>

<p>Nope. Some schools decide to release the scores early. If you are unlucky, you might have to wait until January. But by mid-December(still pretty far off) your score will be online.</p>

<p>AHhh my school still hasnt passed them out yet!!</p>

<p>I'm guessing i'll be getting it online first then..</p>

<p>Do you think it'll be online the 15th? Any possibility it'll be sooner..like the 10th? haha</p>

<p>So, schools have our scores already? What are they waiting for...why can't they give our scores back as soon as they receive them?</p>

<p>Can somebody who already has his/her scores post some of the answers to the disputed questions? </p>

<p>Like the Mr Brett departure one, etc etc. Thanks!</p>

<p>234 :)</p>

<p>80 writing, 80 reading, 74 math (missed 2)</p>

<p>My D got 230 and we are in MA. Does this make the cut?</p>

<p>the departure question: </p>

<p>The answer is E. Nothing will diminish the reputation of our school as much as Mr. Bruce's departure will.</p>

Your D is well above the cutoff</p>

<p>fluffy could you please post answers to some other of the harder disputable writing questions? Thanks!</p>

<p>My school gave us back our tests + the score report plus.
If anyone needs any specific questions they remember, let me know.</p>

<p>Huh....guess everybody knew what gerrymandering meant on the sentence completion....I feel like quite the dunce.</p>

<p>what was the unscorable math problem? give me the details please</p>

<p>The curve is ridiculous. I wound up with a 1870 score overall, an improvement from a 1690, but still terrible. On the Writing section, I only omitted one question, and lost one point, but still received a score of 65.</p>
