<p>Wow, that's weird. I just checked my score and it says 800 with an 80/9. I don't know why yours is a 780..maybe it's just an error? :</p>
<p>Yeah lerm 89 i got a MC:80 Essay:9 and I got a score of 800...i don't know why you don't have the same score.</p>
<p>what??????? ahhh.. what should I do then????
can I petition college board or something?</p>
<p>how did u guys see what u got on the MC already?</p>
<p>btw i know how u feel lerm89... i was so hoping those werent my real scores. i dont understand my CR. I thought it was so easy, and got a 700. I especially dont understand my writing score. 640? I studied my butt off, consistently did the best on W, but only improved by like 10 points from last time?</p>
<p>I got 61 MC, so about how many questions did i get wrong, considering that i didn't omit any of the questions? I usually get at the most 5 quesions wrong on the writing section. I dont understand what happend to my score..</p>
<p>61 MC is about 12 wrong... 5 to 12 sounds like a really unexpected outcome</p>
<p>and yeah, I feel like the curves for all the sections on the October test were really harsh :</p>
<p>wait how did u all find out how many u got wrong</p>
<p>Well, it says your raw score out of 80 on the Scores page...
it doesn't say how many you got wrong
I know that I got 0 wrong because I got an 80/80
I estimated the 61 = 12 wrong by the blue book chart</p>
<p>i cant see my scores page....</p>
<p>which blue book chart?
the blue book i have has writing raw scores starting from 49.
Is this the old version ?? i'm confused.</p>
<p>the score out of 80 is the scaled score
49 is how many questions there actually are
so if he got 12 wrong that would result in a (49-12-12/4) 34 "raw" score, which according to the chart gives a 58-68 scaled score.. which is around 61</p>
<p>thanks, i got it.
another question:
I was rushing towards the end of the test. so I might have skipped a bubble and ended up coloring in wrong spots for some of the last questions. If i really did so, would the collegeboard take this into consideration, and maybe rescore my grade? probably not, right? :(</p>
<p>no, rescore only works if your bubbles weren't filled in correctly, not if the answers were shifted :</p>
<p>ok i got a 63. How many wrong would that be?</p>
<p>More about the odd writing curve:</p>
<p>My scaled writing score was 70. With an 11 essay, I got 730.</p>
<p>Another poster had a scaled writing score of 71. With an 11 essay, they got 720.</p>
<p>I should be the one with the 720. Not that I'm complaining...but how on earth does that work?</p>
<p>there seems to be many problems with teh writing scores. Geez CB!</p>
<p>there were different essays...i got an 80/9 and an 800, and i had the essay about the identity...if you had a different one, your score may have been scaled differently</p>
<p>I had the identity essay also.... and I got 80/9 = 780</p>
