So today the scores went live, and I’m actually really confused about why my scores are that low.
According to the Barron’s Prep Book’s scale, I would have gotten at least 30-50 more points I believe. However, in Sparknotes Scale, it is so harsh that it is hard to believe these are the real scales.
I would like to know which one has more accurate scaling, Barron’s or Sparknotes?
Subject?
Chemistry and Biology
Sparknotes is the much closer scale. I took Chem recently, so I know the Barron’s curve is ridiculous. They say getting 10-15 wrong will get you an 800. This is far from the case. You can probably get max 5 wrong.
