<p>Well I was pretty ****ed today, but it's really childish to get angry at these things. Its not like this will make or break my career.</p>
<p>Besides I have no intentions of going to an ultra-selective school anyways.</p>
<p>But now we get to wait and wonder what we really got (The hardest part BY FAR).</p>
<p>yeah they definitely have to nationalize the cutoffs, that would kick major ass.</p>
<p>well, december is coming....well, I hope its after I get my PS3 :)</p>
<p>seriously, they should nationalize cutoffs...it sucks right now for most of us on the east coast</p>
<p>For a list of 33 out of 38 math questons, please try to help remember the rest; I'm tapped.</p>
<p>Eh, anyone up for settling debates? There are just a few that really stand out as I'm reading the boards...</p>
<ol>
<li>Hiker tone- Controversial/Scholarly vs Humerous/Earnest</li>
</ol>
<p>I put the former, but the second one sounds much better.</p>
<ol>
<li>Writing sentence error FDA meat inspection, D or E</li>
</ol>
<p>I thought there was a mistake in verb tense with choice D, "are", but I'm not sure.</p>
<ol>
<li>Korean passage - National identity or self awareness?</li>
</ol>
<p>There isn't TOO much debate on this but self awareness sounds a bit better to me.</p>
<ol>
<li>Uncle tone-Wry or Surly?</li>
</ol>
<p>This one has the most debate...but things seem to be leaning towards wry, which I put down.</p>
<p>Again, add/correct if you guys like.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>I also put controversial/scholarly but now think it's probably humorous/earnest because the second one wasn't really scholarly.</p></li>
<li><p>There was definitely an error with a verb tense - not sure about the letter but probably D.</p></li>
<li><p>Self awareness. In the passage she talks about learning her family's past and then about getting "a rising sense of self".</p></li>
<li><p>Wry, because his tone was more ironic and sarcastic than it was menacing or sullen.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>i did the median one wrong</p>
<p>I did all the numbers in between such as:</p>
<p>11,12,13,14,15...</p>
<p>Its official, PSATS sucks ass...even for a sophomore</p>
<ol>
<li>humorous/earnet...controversial/scholarly is too extreme</li>
<li>no error--didn't the sentence refer to the fda in the present tense, so that "are" is correct?</li>
<li>self-awareness; snowia's "rising sense of self" explanation does it</li>
<li>wry; it added a dry sense of humor to the piece</li>
</ol>
<p>ok, thisi s nervewrecking, i'm going to stop worrying. What's done is done</p>
<p>Someone above posted that one wrong in math is a 760. Is that correct? It seems like the curve would be much more generous on the PSAT because more kids are taking it, not just college-bound juniors but sophomores and juniors whose schools require them to take it whether they're going to college or not. </p>
<p>I just hunted all around the College Board website and can't find any info on scoring.</p>
<p>oh snap...</p>
<p>As Fish says, Fubar</p>
<p>Oh oh. Just saw it somewhere else--the curve is steeper on PSATs b/c there are fewer questions than on the SATs.</p>
<p>OK, there was a math one w/ car cleaner fluid or something. Like this one ratio in the summer, another one in the winter. Was the question asking the amount of fluid to add to the summer one to get winter, or once you added it, how much you had in total?</p>
<p>it asked how much you had to add.</p>
<p>and it was 3 right?</p>
<p>I'm guessing in total. Which in this case would be 30 because you need to add 6</p>
<p>It was 30, 3 isn't relevant to it in anyway.
Everyone is saying 30 anyway, and that's what i got.</p>
<p>If I got 3 wrong in math, but one of them I ommitted, and another one was a grid-in, would I still get a score in the 70s?</p>
<p>what score would i have gotten in math if i missed 6 and ommitted 3?</p>
