SAT Writing curve?!

Test Preparation
21

<h1>16 kobe: Each essay is scored by two readers on a 6-point scale. So, a perfect score of 12 means both readers gave a 6. A score of 11 means one reader gave it a 6 and the other reader gave it a 5.</h1>

<p>The scores of 8 and 9 mean that your readers are consistently scoring your essays as 4 or 5. Check the college board website and search for the thread on essay writing tips here to figure out how to bump your essay up. </p>

<p>(If the readers differ by more than one point, e.g. one reader gives a 6 and the other gives a 4, then it goes to a third reader for some kind of resolution.)</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>9 on essay
100% on MC =</p>

<p>790 W on May test</p>

23

<p>I’ve gotten 800 on the Writing 4 times:</p>

<p>10E, 80 mc = 800
10E, 80 mc = 800
12E, 77 mc = 800
11E 80 mc = 800</p>

24

<p>^Hypothetically, how rare/odd would you say it is to jump from a 690 W –> 800 W with no prep in between?</p>

25

<p>That’s actually a really generous curve.</p>
