<p>Does anyone have any idea what the curve might be for the November subject test? Does it change from test to test or is it consistently the same? What do colleges consider a competitive score for this subject test?</p>
<p>The curve changes a little, but it won’t make a raw score of 25/50 a 300 on one test and a 700 on another. The most it’ll do is to change the number of questions one can get wrong while still receiving an 800 from around six to eight and back.</p>
<p>What kind of score colleges like to see depends on the college. State universities with directions in their names (e.g. Western Michigan University) will probably be impressed you’ve taken it at all, while Ivy League schools, Stanford, MIT, UChicago, etc. will want scores of at least 750 and consider ones under 650 or so to not be very good.</p>
<p>How does everyone feel about the difficulty level? What would be the cut off point for a 800 this time?</p>
<p>I thought it was pretty difficult, and I can assume others felt the same…hopefully it has a good curve although the curve is always pretty generous. Has it really been that you can get 8 wrong and still get an 800? Or just skip 8?</p>
<p>^ I heard that if your raw is 43 there is still a chance of 800, I am just crossing my fingers for that lenient of a curve!</p>

Not sure if you know this now but he meant possibly skip 8. However, I don’t think the curve is that good this year (prob avg) I’d say if it was leave 7 blank, that’d be pretty lucky.(leave7 blank= get 6 wrong). I think a raw score 44 is still more likely but you never know. Not sure if I ever saw a 42=800 raw score before. But I didn’t really study curves of math 2 in the past.
Just letting you know gl on that test</p>
<p>I hope the curve is leniant i ddnt do as well as i expected</p>
