SAT Writing easier than SAT1Verbal

Test Preparation
61

<p>@weirdoone:
PSAT Verbal - 6x (7<=x<=9, I forget)
PSAT Writing - 72
SAT I Verbal - 750
SAT II Writing - 770
SAT II Literature - 690</p>

<p>This upward trend with Writing and Verbal is fairly consistent with other people I know (and read about here).</p>

<p>Literature IS a fun test, but it is exceptionally difficult. It seems that most people score between 50 and 100 points lower on Literature than Verbal. Yes, they test different things, but that doesn't mean that Verbal is not an accurate predictor.</p>

62

<p>wasnt planning on taking satII writing but found out I HAVE TO, I have no idea what the SAT II writing is composed of. Is it easier than SAT I verbal? What parts are there to SATII writing?</p>

63

<p>720 verbal
710 writing</p>

<p>Writing is way too hard.</p>

64

<p>what is the format of the test?</p>

65

<p>see» <a href="http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/sat/lc_two/writ/format.html?writ%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/sat/lc_two/writ/format.html?writ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>good luck.</p>

66

<p>750 verbal
780 writing
750 literature</p>

67

<p>From what I've read in other threads, the latest Writing curve (December?) was outrageously high. People who expected 650s recieved mid to upper 700s. People should take this into account when posting. . .</p>

68

<p>740 Verbal (3rd try; some prep)
800 Writing (1st try with no prep whatsoever; I didn't know anything about the length, time, or what kind of prompts they asked until the night before)</p>

69

<p>arent you guys comparing APPLE and ORANGE?</p>

<p>both are fruits, but they 're truly different fruits.
in my opinion SAT Verbal and SAT2 Writing test different kinda english ability.</p>

<p>I suck at both -_-</p>

70

<p>800 verbal
740 writing (11 on essay - i suck at m.c.)</p>

71

<p>750 in verbal and writing</p>

72

<p>@dreaming: I already mentioned why this is not an unfair comparison. In many cases, there can be a correlation between two results but not a causal link. For example, those who drive cars are more likely to die on the highway . . . but not all who die on the highway drive cars nor do all who drive cars on the highway die.</p>

<p>This thread is an attempt to find a correlation between verbal and writing scores. There's nothing wrong with comparing the two in this way. Regardless, it's more like comparing Granny Smith with McIntosh. . . both are apples.</p>

73

<p>oops wrong thread</p>

74

<p>McIntosh apples are WAY better.</p>

75

<p>plus macintosh is awesome!</p>

76

<p>I would say writing is easier for me..........</p>

<p>Verbal: 630
Writing: 670</p>

77

<p>It hurts to resurrect dead threads, but I finally drew up a little image from the data in this thread:</p>

<p>Check</a> it out HERE!
My conclusion now? You just can't predict.</p>

78

<p>you did this on excel right?</p>

79

<p>I don't remember. In truth, I did it a long time ago and forgot to post. It was in either Excel or vanillia Word. I no longer have the original document. . .</p>

<p>I did a few regressions on my calculator and noticed that the correlation is truly pathetic. Again, this was a while back. I don't have the r values for you.</p>
