<p>Hey guys I took the sat today and omitted probably about 10-15 questions on the math and about 5-6 on the cr. If I feel pretty confident that I got about 95% of the questions I did answer right, what kind of score am I looking at? My goal is like A 1600+ on the three part.</p>
<p>That really depends on how other people do on the test. Omitting is way better than guessing though.</p>
<p>Don’t go around posting these Q’s in the wrong sections.</p>
<p>You didn’t mention writing at all. </p>
<p>You say 20-25 omitted in total, so I’m averaging and then rounding to 23 omitted total.
Averaging and rounding CR, I arrive at 6 omitted. Math, 13. The remaining omitted are W, 4. </p>
<p>You also didn’t mention your essay, so I’m just assuming 7.</p>
<p>Hypothetical:
95% correct in the answered questions.
Essay score of 7.
Omitted:
4 W
6 CR
13 M</p>
<p>Now, taking into account curves, one cannot be sure of what his or her raw score would convert to. I’m just going to estimate.</p>
<p>57 raw CR
38 raw M
42 raw W
7 ESSAY</p>
<p>Estimated scores:
average 670 CR
average 600 M
average 680 W</p>
<p>For a grand total of…1950.</p>
<p>That’s probably not what you got. You probably got a lot less, and the “95%” you think you got right, well, you didn’t. Scales for different tests can change the scores a lot, so take that in mind. Also, I took a lot of assumptions. </p>
<p>It’s quite possible you got 1600+. IMO, a better estimate of how you did would be to take 2-3 practice tests under test conditions and average your scores.</p>
<p>And in response to the above user…</p>
<p>Omitting is typically better when you are aiming for a mid-range score, like this guy is. For people trying to score high it’s better to make an educated guess.</p>
