<p>What do you guys think the curve will be? </p>

<p>Writing: It was fairly easy, except for a few obscure idioms like the "as many" question and the Hamlet question. Not hard, but not very easy.</p>

<p>CR: Okay, I thought this was pretty tough...the grandma passage and the folktale passage (and the Japan short passage) had so many 50/50s. The building passage and monarch butterfly, from what I remember were pretty easy. Anybody expecting a -3 800?</p>

<p>Math: I don't generally find math challenging, and there weren't any particularly hard questions. The cube question did kind of stump me, but you just add another layer to the previous. Im thinking a -1 790?</p>

2

<p>BUMP I’m surprised nobody’s reading this…</p>

3

<p>I guess math -1 770 but 790 is best!! I got 1 wrong…</p>

4

<p>-1 770 is pretty harsh…is it that much?</p>

5

<p>Oh, gosh. I made one mistake in Grammar section already…
I forgot that “suggest to do” is unidiomatic… Damn!</p>

<p>How about the question that goes like “If he had begun sooner…”, what did you put? I chose E for this question…</p>

<p>Hope I got 12 in the essay, so that I still can get 780ish for WR. lol</p>

6

<p>math is above average but not too hard. I will go with -1 780</p>

7

<p>Oh how I hope it is -1 790. One of the math was an experimental, though - the cube question, was that in either section 5 or 6? I think it’s either one of those that are in the experimental.</p>

8

<p>why is everybody bothered about cube question? it was 70 right.</p>

9

<p>yeah it was 70 and it wasn’t experimental because I had CR as experimental section and yet got the cube question.</p>

10

<p>I would like to believe that:</p>

<p>-1 in math would be 780 and -2 would be 760, coz math was reasonably tough.</p>

11

<p>specific: did you get the question about the circle inside the shaded square? the answer was supposed to be pi root 2r or something?</p>

12

<p>yeah… answer was squareroot (2*pi) *r. Yet I got an easy question wrong despite getting all the supposedly difficult questions right like those of cubes, shaded square and circle etc.</p>

13

<p>In June ,-1 is 760.</p>

14

<p>i cant find any information about the november 2010 curve @@</p>

15

<p>if it helps, November 2010 was -10 650.
Cause that’s what I got. :p</p>

16

<p>Lyra145, you’re international? -10 means 8 wrong and you get 650? Quite hard!</p>

17

<p>That is pretty harsh, considering -8 is a 700 on the SAT score calculator.</p>

18

<p>A friend took the Nov 2010 and the range for math for 31 right was 520-580. (9 incorrect and 14 omitted). Maybe we can calculate now</p>

19

<p>@Springtransfer12
assuming he missed only multiple choice questions…
Math: 550
According to SAT score calculator. That’s… about the range…?</p>

20

<p>He did get 550</p>
