SAT scale score lower than it's raw score?!?

Test Preparation
1

<p>My SAT math score was a 640. Here's the breakdown:</p>

<p>45 right
4 wrong
5 omitted</p>

<p>Raw Score: 44
SUPPOSED TO BE: 660</p>

<p>WHY WOULD THEY MAKE MY SAT SCALE SCORE LOWER???? IS THIS A MISTAKE IN THEIR SYSTEM?!?!?!?!? I AM SO FURIOUS AND HEATED.</p>

<p>Why do you say that you were supposed to receive a 660 with that raw score?</p>

<p>Every SAT has its own scale. This year’s Reading scale, for example, was the harshest ever.</p>
