*OFFICIAL PSAT THREAD 2014 (US)*

<p>My guidance counselor said that they’re not distributing scores until after winter break… Hate my school </p>

<p>Anyone get their scores yet???</p>

<p>Spoke to my guidance counselor, she said she’d pass them out on Tuesday (the 9th of December)</p>

<p>I’m an Florida Virtual School Student who went to the public school I’m zoned for to take mine. Do you think there will be a delay? There was a one and a half month delay freshman year, but sophomore year I got mine before my public school friends. I mean I know the ranges my scores will be in from the actual SAT and practice tests, and I know it’s not good enough for National Merit, but I do like the results from the PSAT for AP class recommendations and such, and as a dual enrolled student I’m planning out the classes I want next school year already, so it’d be best to have them sooner than later.</p>

<p>My counselor said we’re not getting our scores until January.</p>

<p>Yeesh.</p>

<p>Has anybody found the Understanding your scores 2014 version? I know they managed to post it online December 1st last year, but I’m still looking for it.</p>

<p>^Its not out yet</p>

<p>Understanding your score is out!

<p>Wow, CR curve was pretty lenient in my opinion! </p>

<p>Does anyone have a link to the actual questions?</p>

<p>The writing curve imo is pretty lenient. Reading and math seem normal. Has anyone received their scores?</p>

<p>The form S Writing curve is insanely harsh. It seems that if I even got one wrong, I am done from semifinalist. However, I did think the writing was easy.</p>

<p>For section 4 Form W number 35 says the answer is 2.50, would 2.5 also be an acceptable answer? I thought we were supposed to get rid of the 0s at the end. 2.50 was a monetary value I think but I was always taught to remove the 0s at the end. </p>

<p>When do we find out about NM cutoffs?</p>

<p>2.5 should be correct. NM cutoffs will be announced next year late August/early September. </p>

<p>I would guess that if your score is in the 99% you will very likely make the cut.</p>

<p>I’m in Florida and our 99% is usually the nation’s 98%. </p>

<p>Someone I know here in Florida made the cut this past year and her score was 213. I just checked last year’s scores and 213 was the upper region of the 98% (nationally). </p>

<p>It kind of makes sense to me that she made the cut in Florida where the nation’s 98% is the state’s 99%. Remember that the cutoff depends on the state. </p>

<p>What was the 216 from? I think I might have gotten 214, but that might have been on the November SAT (ugh… I’m mixing up everything). What happens if you write something in the grid-in that’s wrong, but your bubbles are right?</p>

<p>Also, I dont know if this is accurate or not, but the 99th percentile for the whole nation went from a 215 last year to a 213 this year. So hopefully most state cut offs drop as well. </p>

<p>213 is comparatively a low score for the nation. Many states have 220 or above.</p>

<p>I looked and with the worst possible scenario, I might have gotten a 217. Best scenario is a 223.</p>

<p>I think I was too lenient. Not a likely score for a sophomore.</p>
