<p>how many points do you lose per grid in</p>
<p>Length was twelve. Why wouldn't it be fulfilling task w/o fulfilling an expectation? You don't lose any for grid-ins.</p>
<p>"what about the question with the ropes? where the mean was changed when you added a sixth length?"</p>
<p>I think that was the grid in with the answer of 12?</p>
<p>was it just me or did anyone else have any trouble with the vocabulary on the PSATs? </p>
<p>math was really easy.</p>
<p>noooo, it is. i defn put that. i gues si am referring to a different questino</p>
<p>tcuhna: No points are deducted for incorrect answers in the grid-in.</p>
<p>inferis: I agree. Math was pretty easy, but I had some trouble with a few of the sentence completions, which is what I expected...</p>
<p>Vocabular wasn't THAT bad. Just one Critical Reading problem that had esoteric vocab words left and right! Narcissism, or whatever, obsfucate...who SAYS that? 'Oh, so he was obsfucating...'</p>
<p>Math WAS really easy. Stupid, stupid mistakes. I should've spent more time to check those specific problems over. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...having missed two, possibly three math (one of them a grid-in) it'll take a miracle to get national merit. Math was what I was counting on.</p>
<p>i put fulfilling the thing without fulfuilling the expectation. it doesn't say he doesn't <i>like</i> to paint or anything.</p>
<p>Well, from the specific questions brought up here (and some calculations of my own):
I think I missed 1 math (omitted 0)
1 CR (no specific question, but I'll allow for a stupid error; omitted 0)
3 writing (1 or 2 on here, another 1 or 2 for error; omitted 0)
That would mean a score of about 234.
Anyone else care to prognosticate your own score?</p>
<p>Math: Three grindings wrong
Critical: -4
Writing: -3</p>
<p>What is my final score?</p>
<p>I never skip questions, so...</p>
<p>Math - 2 wrong (barring further stupid mistakes; 1 problem solving, 1 grid-in; raw score 36 -> scaled 74? I hate the math curve)</p>
<p>Critical Reading - No idea. Anything between three and seven would make sense to me. It could be as low as a 70 and high as a 75?</p>
<p>Writing - No idea. Probably no more than four. I'd be surprised if I got anything more than four wrong...I think three's a fair guess.</p>
<p>for the third to last math grid, where we had to add the even numbers and odd numbers and then all the numbers...something like this:</p>
<p>x = sum of odd numbers 1-49 inclusive
y = sum of even numbers 2-50 inclusive
z = sum of all numbers 1-50 inclusive </p>
<p>what is x= y - z?</p>
<p>the problem went something like that, what did you guys get? I got 99 but i think it was wrong.</p>
<p>I got 99. I'm pretty sure it's right. I added them up on my calculator for good measure. Z was 1176. I figured that out both by thinking it over and, to check, on my calculator...so...yeah.</p>
<p>I got (0,-5) for the clockwise one. I don't get why everyone is talking about x and y-axis. It just said clockwise! Gaaaaaah!</p>
<p>those PSATs sucked
i mean i think most of the ones i actually answered were right, but i wasn't able to finish on the reading and some there were a few on one of the 3rd section that I just couldn't answer....
Anyone have problems with time managment? I read soooo slow!
i found the math fairly easy, but some of the CR and Writing was just too long for me to finish in such little time!
o well, still got junior year....</p>
<p>Math: Three grindings wrong
Critical: -4
Writing: -3</p>
<p>What is my final score?</p>
<p>Anybody?</p>
<p>Yeah, the problem with x + y - z was 99.</p>
<p>"I don't get why everyone is talking about x and y-axis. It just said clockwise! Gaaaaaah!"</p>
<p>Because the question said that the point was rotated and then "stopped at the x-axis." =P</p>
<p>why does everyone keep talking about that math problem? it gives us the point (something, -4) and asks when it hits the x-axis going clockwise what will be the pt? if you use the distance formula you should (-5,0)</p>
<p>Oh. Daaagahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhkfljreroiuj3!!(#$)*Q$R#$?!!!!! DIFO@@!~!!!</p>
<p>Sorry. Allow me to continue. GAARAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa....I'm so mad at myself now...and disappointed...but more mad...AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa</p>
<p>I got the last question with the triangle and square wrong!!!!! If i miss 2 problems on all of the math questions, what should be my math score?</p>
<p>Well, on the collegeboard pamphlet, I believe it was a 74. Now, does that suck or what?</p>
