<p>much lower than expected....</p>
<p>Lower than before. D:</p>
<ol>
<li>is it considered a good score?</li>

<p>Yep, 720 is good- congrats!</p>
<p>Glad to hear that mine wasn't the only low one. I saw it, and I was seriously considering getting it hand scored...</p>
<p>Butternut, thanks. I'm from Ukrine, and I was self studying USH. I'm more than happy wit my score=)</p>
<p>I think that I am going to get mine hand scored. Immediately following the test I was confident, and upon checking this site, there were only six questions which I knew I had gotten wrong. Worse case scenario I was expecting a 790. Today I got a 720... What gives? I can't possibly have missed 20 questions, there just is no way...</p>
<p>Butternut, do you find it odd that we had figured ourselves to be -6 or -8 at most, but ended up getting much lower? I'm not trying to sound like an ass here, but I really just cannot see how I got a score that low. According to the general U.S. History curve, I would've had to get around 20 questions wrong to get a 720. I didn't even have 20 questions that I was unsure of when I was checking. I realize that my score is more than likely accurate, but I'm just wondering how it happened...</p>
<p>wow, i did AWFUL-- 640....i actually did better on Math 2 (got a 720 on that) and i suck at math. Believe it or not I'm typically really good at history, its my best subject. I received school awards for highest average in honors us history, AP US Gov't and AP us hist...and i got a 5 on both those AP Exams. It was last May when I had taken the exam but i cannot believe I got a 640?!?!?! This seriously ruins my day. I guess I can just be thankful for ACT though. I'll definitely only be sending my 33 ACT and no SAT stuff. Oh well!</p>
<p>I feel you, schoolsearching, I am in a similar position. I got a 5 on both the AP Government and AP U.S. exams, yet received a 720 on the SAT II. There's something weird about this, most everyone has gotten a sub-par score so far. Again, I went over all the questions that I had trouble on after the test, and found that I'd end up with -8 at most. A 720 with a normal curve is something like -20.</p>
<p>Just for your information since it seems everyone is doing this, I got a 690 and I left like 4-6 blank.</p>
<p>Same thing for me on this test guys. I answered literally every question (though I know I had gotten a few wrong), and only got a 720.</p>
<p>I swear I only missed like 5-6.... and even missing 10 should be like high 700's.</p>
<p>I wonder what is up. I'd appreciate it if more people reported their scores so that we have a more comprehensive understanding of this situation. I can't speak for anyone else, but I was shocked when I saw the 720. I'm certain that I only got 6-8 wrong, which should still be in the 800 range. 20 wrong is just out of the question. Additionally, I know that this small sample cannot be used to gauge the nationwide test scores, but shouldn't the curve be more generous if so many people did poorly? I wish there was some way to get answers.</p>
<p>Yeh i felt "iffy" on maybe 10-15, left 3 blank, and thought i knew the rest. After taking the test, i viewed this forum and found that I got almost all of the "iffy" questions correct..only saw 2 or 3 that i definitely missed..(at least i had the same answer as the general consesnus on here) I logged on this morning expecting a score in the mid 700s while just worrying that my math score wouldnt break 700. I was SHOCKED when i saw a 720 math score but a US History score of 640?!?!...i had to do a double take and make sure my eyes were working right.</p>
<p>The most unfortunate part is that these scores are probably final, and we most likely got an especially hard test or an especially tough curve. Honestly though, I did not find the test hard, and after we went over all the answers here, I was supremely confident. Here's to hoping that the scores are somehow changed in the mail, however unlikely it is. </p>
<p>I'd like to hear from anyone that got an 770/780+.</p>
<p>i also expected a 750+ but i received a 690 and i hope to god that this was a mistake on their hand. There is no way i could have gotten like 20+ wrong.</p>
<p>Is there any way the CollegeBoard could've gotten this one wrong?</p>
<p>I got a 780, and was most confident on this one being my 800. I got most of the iffy ones I remembered right, but am not sure how poorly I did on ones I just answered.</p>
<p>I'm sure these are final, and it's highly disappointing. I just don't understand how I got 20+ wrong when I finished early, checked all my answers, and even then only had 13/14 semi-questionable at most.</p>
<p>What do you guys think, should I retake? I'm probably going to major in political science, and a 720 may end up hurting me. I don't know if I'd get a higher score, though, because I felt very confident that I was going to get an 800 after I took the test.</p>
<p>I really doubt there was some problem with the test...</p>
<p>I got a 750, and that's exactly what I expected.</p>
