<p>yes, and 42.5 will round to a 43</p>
<p>^■■■■ yes i love you</p>
<p>Oh wow, omitted 9 and probably got several wrong. Aiming for a 600 & dreaming of a 650+</p>
<p>(Math is NOT my specialty but this test is required for a few programs I am applying to :p)</p>
<p>wouldnt 9 omitted be 700+?</p>
<p>by the way does anyone remember the letter answer to number 48 and if there were a few d’s near the end?</p>
<p>How do I calculate my raw score and then convert it to approximate actual score? I omitted 3, don’t know how many I missed.</p>
<p>I got a 690 in June, and I think I might have to re-retake if I don’t get like 720-740 at minimum.</p>
<p>does anyone remember the question with a triangle ABC, and asked which side lengths you would need to find angle ABC? was the answer all three of the side lengths?</p>
<p>The equation to calculate your raw score, according to barons, is </p>
<p>“number right -(1/4)(number wrong)” rounded to the nearest integer. </p>
<p>Then your scaled score is </p>
<p>“800 - 10(44-R),” R being your raw score. The “44” is what changes depending on the curve.</p>
<p>mrcool… I’m pretty sure that one was just the two adjacent sides to the angle, so you would have SAS for the law of cosines</p>
<p>law of cosines is c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab(cos(C))</p>
<p>so wouldn’t you need c, a, and b…then use inverse cosine to find the unknown angle C?</p>
<p>what do you guys think the curve is? 44+? 43+? 45+?</p>
<p>What the - I thought missing 6 questions would still net you an 800? according to Barron’s, that is.</p>
<p>yea…u need all 3 sides</p>
<p>I just copied that straight from the barons 2008 book. The curve definitely wont be that harsh on the actual test though.</p>
<p>In the Blue Book, -6 is still 800, but I’m pretty sure that the curve for this test would be like -8/-7 for 800.</p>
<p>(1/2)absinC is the area of a triangle right? I had to use tht for a question, but i dont remember why lol</p>
<p>Yeah, it is but I don’t remember having to use that anywhere…</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the one where you had a triangle and you had to fine the angle of X? you were given like tan of vw and tan of xv I think… don’t remember. I just remember it was a skewed triangle and it wasn’t drawn to scale.</p>
<p>I remember it, but I skipped it lol</p>
<p>I think that for that one I just took in inverse tan(vw), and the inverse tan(xv). Then I added those up, and subtracted my answer from 180, because all angles in a triangle must add up to 180. That could be off… don’t really remember that problem much.</p>
<p>I think that’s what I did too.</p>
