<p>missing 2 questions COULD get you an 800, and that was what happened on the January Test curve.</p>
<p>Do you all think that CR sections were harder than those of the January test? I personally thought it was easier, but people around me said the vocab was super hard. I hope CB thinks its harder too and give a more lenient/ as lenient curve as january one haha I have the january conversion table so I can refer to it</p>
<p>The curve the OP posted for Critical Reading was exaggerated. I got -5 No Omits on May CR and still got a 740</p>
<p>^ from what I know, a -5 on the january test was also a 740 >.< hoping it’s the same this time round</p>
<p>Would this be good for scaling:</p>
<p>Math: -1 780 -2 760, etc…</p>
<p>CR: 3 omit 800 (The easiest CRs always have this curve)</p>
<p>Writing: I have no friggin clue.</p>

<p>Released curves</p>
<p>I would say Math would be the most generous of the 3,</p>
<p>Why? I thought this math section was one of the easiest?</p>
<p>Lol ya I am horrible at math and I got all the hard questions right and made only one dumb mistake (that I know of so far = D).</p>
<p>I think a math -1 will be 790. Probably 760 for -2.</p>
<p>I thought math was really easy. Why dont ppl think -1 will be 770 or worse?</p>
<p>-1 is virtually never lower than a 780.</p>
<p>Your curve for CR is too harsh-- -2 goes from 790-800 generally, with curve, it can be better (possibly).</p>
<p>Writing depends on your essay you can’t just assign it a prevalent “curve”…</p>
<p>dang!! this makes me mad!
it looks like the CR from march had the toughest curve!! sucks!!
intangible gator: u really missed 5 and still got 740??? =OOO danggg that’s a nice curve</p>
<p>in march i missed 3(no omits) and got 750!! arghh! should be more like a 770…then i would’ve broken 2300…and everyone thought the cr was hard in march. how does this happen??</p>
<p>I took both the March and the May SAT. In regards to CR, May was much easier. The passages were easier and the curve was much fairer. March had one of the toughest curves I have seen in a while.</p>
<p>so in terms of the erikthered’s scale, do you guys think this test is going to lean more towards green, red, or yellow in math, CR, and WR? (obv. won’t be same for all - at least most likely not)</p>
<p>prbly yellow for writing and reading and green for math</p>
<p>
Dec 2008 I missed one got 770. My guess would be same this time around.</p>
<p>I posted this in another thread but I don’t think many people saw it lol:</p>
<p>Hey so today, my friend told me he read about an article on how a flood of 9000 chinese local students flew to hong kong on saturday to take the June SAT. It’s because the June SAT fits with their schedule of the Chinese national High Examination…something like that…And we all know that these chinese kids are SOOO good at test taking (the memorize vocab like crazy and are super good at math). So…I was wondering if the SAT curve is predetermined, cuz if it isn’t, then aren’t these 9000 chinese kids going to screw up the curve?</p>
<p>Curve is predetermined</p>
<p>predetermined? how does that make sense tho…so CB knows if the test is harder or easier beforehand? o_O</p>
