<p>But even if you get a 770, the percentile is still 80% or something so doesn’t it look bad for top schools? (For most SAT2s I feel like 770 is a good score but I feel like its low for Math Level 2.</p>
<p>Do colleges receive the percentiles with the score report?</p>
<p>It’s true, a lot of students get 800 on this. But a 770 isn’t going to keep you out of a school.</p>
<p>@ jguskadoo: I don’t think so, but I’m not sure.</p>
<p>Hey guys, if I skipped 3 and missed 8, what do you think my score will be on this test? :(</p>
<p>@Houstonrep your raw score is 37, so that should be about a 740, depending on the curve</p>
<p>In the Princeton Review book, that comes out to a 650</p>
<p>can someone clarify what question this was? Can’t seem to recall it
49. Possible values of x and y. It can be +,-,0</p>
<p>Do you guys think the cutoff for an 800 will be a 43 or 44 raw score?</p>
<p>@qwertyuiop0, If x>0 and y<0, what can x+y equal?</p>
<p>Probably 44</p>
<p>@smarty99 wait are you serious??? omitting 3 and missing 8 comes out as a 650?!</p>
<p>That is a scaled score of 35, or around a 710. Definitely not a 650 lol</p>
<p>Nah, it’s a 37.</p>
<p>50 - 8 - 3 - 0.25(8) = 37, which will be around 730.</p>
<p>My bad, I suddenly can’t do math after yesterday :P</p>
<p>Hahaha, that’s completely understandable.</p>
<p>Thanks guys. Still, I’m very unhappy with the score. What do you guys think about it? Should I just leave it be?</p>
<p>Would a 780 on Math 2 be bad for ivies?</p>
<p>There’s not really a reason to cancel it since you can retake.</p>
<p>But if you’re pretty sure that that’s your score and you really don’t like it, then cancel.</p>
<p>As much as I wish the answer to the polynomial question to be 0, the problem I have with this (aside from the fact that several posters remember it specifying a fifth degree polynomial) is why would it include terms up to the fifth degree if they’d let you simply get rid of the fifth? By the logic that we need to use to make the answer 0, the answer would always be zero regardless of how many degrees the question included. Why didn’t they simply use 4, or 3?</p>
<p>@elnamo
No way. That’s an amazing score and the difference between that and 800 is like one or two questions.</p>
