<p>What is the [approximate] cutoff even to just be "commended" for National Merit?</p>
<p>" math-4 wrong, 1 omit-65 "</p>
<p>Christ. My estimated score just plummeted drastically.</p>
<p>^ I know. Not to make you feel any worse, but I missed 2 of the fill ins (which have no penalty for guessing), so theoretically missing 4 mc would be worse.</p>
<p>im assuming the cutoffswill go down for several states due to the harsh curves this yr</p>
<p>I hope so.</p>
<p>Geez, that writing curve kills. My state's cut-off was around a 219... Maybe it'll be like a 218 this year?</p>
<p>240, Saturday.</p>
<p>Take that, "scholarly vs. conversational"-ers.</p>
<p>Haha, just kidding (I mean the above comment, not my score). I'm sure you guys did great anyway.</p>
<p>did you really get a 240? That's amazing, I got somewhere from a 223-225</p>
<p>Fo shizzle. I was pretty surprised too, but hey, on any other test, it might have been <230. Good luck to you.</p>
<p>Thanks. ( BTW I was one of the scholarly vs. Conversational people :o)</p>
<p>hahahaha i remember that. it was the humor one, wasn't it? not scholarly.</p>

<p>How do you improve your reading passage skills?</p>
<p>Yeah it was humor :( Oh well, when i was calculating my score, I took that as something wrong so it doesn't really affect my overall score</p>
<p>Ok so I got a question, how would these scores fare for the saturday test?
CR: -4
Math: -0 (80)
Writing: -3</p>
<p>CR: 75
Math: 80
Writing: 70?</p>
<p>Anybody know what score I would get if I got 10, 9, 8, 7 or 6 math questions wrong on Saturday?</p>
<p>Thanks everybody for all the help!</p>
<p>6-7 wrong...maybe a 60-62? b/c 2 wrong is 73</p>
<p>what do u guys think nj national merit is gonna be this yr.? last year was 224...will it be lower this year bc of the horrible curve</p>
<p>the "commended" students for national merit had just a 204-213. do you think it will be the same this year? or higher? or lower?</p>
<p>why are the curves so harsh! blaaahhh</p>
<p>uh oh, someone on cc already got a 240.</p>
<p>i have to beat him!</p>
