<p>Is it true that the SAT is curved? Taking the SAT in December or January usually gives better scores than SAT's taken in October or November. Is that because it is curved?</p>
<p>SAT scores are curved with a mean around 500 and standard deviation 100, but I don’t think you get an advantage with a certain testing date. It wouldn’t make any sense anyway.</p>
<p>The test is curved but the date does not matter. That’s all just rumors and rubbish.</p>
