<p>My son’s Writing went down too (last spring- 0 wrong on MC and essay of 8 and got a 770; this time 76/80 on MC and essay of 8 and got 730). His other two scores went up, CR quite a bit (680 to 760), math 780 to 800. He has written quite a lot since last spring and he studied the grammar and did about 10 practice tests (full tests) between spring and fall, so this drop in writing surprised him.</p>
