October 2010 SAT Curve Predictions

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>I know I missed the absolute value inequality question and the dice question, so with a minus 2, what would my score be. I am hoping for something like a 770-760, is that possible or is it more like a 740-730.</p>

2

<p>Anyone got an idea what the curve will be like for each section.</p>

<p>I think</p>

<p>Math:
770
750
730
…</p>

<p>CR (hopefully):
800
800
790
770
…</p>

<p>Writing (no idea)</p>

3

<p>Most likely a 740-750</p>

4

<p>gosh, is the math curve really that unrelenting.</p>

5

<p>-2 is normally 770 give or take 20</p>

6

<p>Yea
In March, I got a 770 with 1 wrong
In April, I got a 730 with 3 wrong but that test was super hard</p>

<p>Today’s math section was the easiest out of all three so I’m assuming the curve to start at 770</p>

7

<p>The dice question at the end got me for math. That will definitely make the curve -1 800</p>

8

<p>@AttackPak, well hopefully what you think is easy is actually difficult, although I too found it kind of easy excluding the two I missed, anyways hopefully I can get a 770 somehow.</p>

<p>My only optimism is that last time I left two blank and got three wrong and still got a 700 so there may be some hope.</p>

9

<p>haha I hope you are write alihaq, but a lot of people seemed to get that dice question so I won’t be so optimistic.</p>

10

<p>Anyone think that -2 in CR will be an 800? I missed two dumb sentence completions, which I thought were harder than usual.</p>

11

<p>Predicting that -1 math will be 780, there were some tricky questions out there (the dice one) and others that just made you think.</p>

<p>Passages for CR were easier IMO than March of last year, but the vocab was annoying so I expect an average curve for that.</p>

12

<p>what does an average curve look like</p>

14

<p>What score would a -2 and a 10/11 essay give me for Writing?</p>

15

<p>I thought the M was harder than usual, to be honest. I messed up the dice one I think, so hopefully -1 is only a 780 or 790.</p>

16

<p>Anybody care to do a full CR curve prediction? Not everyone here is in that 0-3 wrong group, I think I got between 6 and 8 wrong, and I’m sure it’d be helpful to those of us who aren’t getting 800’s.</p>

17

<p>Okay I am super confused about how the curve works can someone-anyone-explain it to me?!</p>

18

<p>Guys I have a question about raw score. If it ends in .5, is it rounded up or down? For example, 52.5 = 53 or 52?</p>

19

<p>rounded up, truffliepuff</p>

20

<p>800
800
800
770
750
730
710</p>

<p>would be my prediction for CR curve</p>
