OFFICIAL OCTOBER 2014 SAT THREAD (International students)

<p>So a few people told me that the curve depends on how others do in the test, and others say it doesn’t. Anyone know the truth?</p>

<p>Same here. Can’t we just email CB and ask them? D:</p>

<p>I asked this question a day ago but nobody bothered answering lol

<p>Yeah, the score is assigned based on the percentile which obeys Normal Distribution. </p>

<p>So, I’m guessing the CR’s curve won’t be that generous… Welp, time to take it again on November. :frowning: (I crei)</p>

<p>@youngbin1130‌ Because CR was easy? I thought writing was much easier. What do you think about math?</p>

<p>@divingdeep23‌ Writing was the hardest for me. I was actually disappointed at myself because writing was supposed to be the second easiest for me. Math was the easiest for me and, of course, reading goes in between. </p>

<p>Math was the easiest for me too, at most I’m guessing 1 mistake. I feel pretty good about writing. Not too sure about CR, because it usually messes me up whenever I think the answer is right. Is this your last time (taking the SAT I) ?</p>

<p>@divingdeep23‌ Not really. I’m actually a college student in the Philippines. I’m taking the SATs so that I can go abroa (Singapore, specifically). I’ll be taking one on November again. </p>

<p>Same situation in CR as well. I always think that the answer is correct but it’s completely wrong. :(</p>

<p>@youngbin1130‌ I was hoping I wasn’t the only one. Fingers crossed that the curve isn’t too harsh! </p>

<p>@divingdeep23‌ <em>fingers crossed</em> hoping for at least 1950!</p>

<p>it is based on others scores too … i remember reading that they do so to maintain a certain number of acers to each section … so the difficulty of the test isn’t the only factor @Phongtheha‌ @djangom‌ @dividingdeep23</p>

<p>For me, Maths was the easiest, then CR and Writing were in the same level, imho. Do you remember a question o cattle, one of jewels and another one of… blankets? Oo What are their answers, please?</p>

<p>@djangom‌ do u remember the questions of thos u asked for? I can only remember the jewel thing, on which i chose E</p>

<p>What did u put?</p>

<p>I think the Seattle Cattle and the Jewels one are No error. I don’t remember the blankets one, could you type the whole sentence? @djangom‌ </p>

<p>I remember the cattle one…I think I got it wrong, damn collective nouns</p>

<p>What was the question for the cattle one? </p>

<p>Does anyone remember what the answer was for the writing question about mars and its temperature?</p>
