How many still registered?

@lv98xx you will surely receive your scores this Friday…from personal experience and some observations, I know that the test takers from test centers in Mumbai always get their scores in the 2nd batch…I bet

Just got in my writing score, 8/12!

@Jpgranier , how on earth did you get your writing score back that quickly? O_o

EDIT

I probably should’ve looked at mine before typing that. I’m surprised it was corrected that quickly! 09/12. A point more than my last essay, I’m definitely OK with that!

@Ktgisgreat still registered here.

I’m still registered.

So Friday it be…

Science dragged my Score down so goodbye Act, hello SAT!

My D got her writing scores back as well. She got a 9. I am surprised since last time it took 3 and a half weeks for her to get writing scores back. Is a 9 a good writing score for schools like U of M and UCLA

So next batch of scores will be released Friday?

@Enforcer88 that has been the case in the past. And then they continue to release scores on Wednesdays and Fridays from then on. It took 3 weeks from the initial release date for my daughter to get her scores for the September test. Obviously we’re hoping we don’t have that long of a wait ahead of us this time.

Hey so I got a 7 on the writing, which isn’t up to par given my composite. How much consideration do colleges give the writing score? I can’t imagine it’s that high, right? Not trying to sound like one of those “should I retake a 1590 SAT?” type kids.

@CollegeBound1325 Most colleges do not require the writing section. Colleges that require the writing place much much more emphathesis on the composite. However, if you want to go to an ivy that requires the writing, you should try to up your score.

When you write about Chief Keef and 21 Savage in your essay and get a 10 hahaha

@CollegeBound1325
Are writing scores, like composite scores, added every Wednesday and Friday?

@derpro Honestly, I have no idea. My guess is that if you had to wait extra time for your composite, you might receive all scores in the same drop. If you’ve already received your composite, it shouldn’t be much longer on writing scores to come in.

Anyone tested yet?

@FinesseDolphin I wrote mine about the song stick talk by future lmao

I got a 9 on the essay :confused: it bombed my ELA score so I’m kinda upset. With 35E and 34R I was a shoe in for a 34+ ELA but I guess they just didn’t like my essay. This is stupid
