<p>I took a practice test yesterday and I just scored it right now.</p>
<p>I got somewhere between 660-700. When I took the SAT for the first time back in March, I got a 500. And I never cracked 600 in any practice test.</p>
<p>So what the hell happened? I only got 2 wrong total for the whole test in math but I skipped a whole bunch, like 11.</p>
<p>I haven't studied at all, I am taking Calculus right now and that's just about the only math I've done in months.</p>
<p>bump?......</p>
<p>alot of the SAT stuff is really just chance
i took a practice SAT II in lit and got like a 600, and then i took it for real and scored a 790. It all depends on the test itself.</p>
<p>idk maybe maybe not</p>
<p>mj, he took a practice exam. </p>
<p>"I only got 2 wrong total for the whole test in math but I skipped a whole bunch, like 11." This is nowhere near a 660-700 if those are the numbers you got yesterday.</p>
<p>in january, i got a 670; in oct., i got a 780 (took a practice test a couple weeks before the oct. test as my only prep and got a 760, so i don't think the 780 was a mistake) . . . but +170 pts seems kind of a lot</p>
<p><em>spit</em> Little Duck, that's not a 660-700. More like a 550-580.</p>
<p>Yeah, leaving questions blank hurts your score...</p>
<p>you can't possibly get that high of a score when you leave 11 blank.</p>
<p>i dunno, i did exactly what it said to do</p>
<p>total grid ins correct: 8</p>
<p>total MC correct: 39</p>
<p>total MC incorrect: 2</p>
<p>can somebody plz tell me what the hell is going on? the calculations come out the same every time, i don't know what else to do. did i get that score is something wrong?</p>
<p>Give exactly how many you got right, how many wrong and how many omitted. Thanks</p>
<p>Okay this is EXACTLY how PR has it:</p>
<p>Total Math Grid-In Questions Correct: 8</p>
<p>Total Math MC Correct: 39</p>
<p>Total Math Multiple MC Incorrect: 2</p>
<p>Math Raw score: 46.5</p>
<p>It doesn't ask for how many I skipped but since you want to know:</p>
<h1>omitted: 11</h1>
<p>That's 60 questions, a real SAT would only have 54, I believe...
Take a blue book practice exam and report back. Lol...</p>
<p>how many did you answer total in the math section? If you left 11 blank the most you could score 54-11(what you left blank)=43 - .5 (for the 2 you got wrong) = 42.5 raw = blue book table 560-610 range</p>
<p>May QAS it would equal 640</p>
<p>*edit nvm haha was talking about something else</p>
<p>there's gotta be a mistake somewhere. i'll deal with this later -_-</p>
<p>No way is your raw score 46.5</p>
<p>there are only 54 questions minus the 11 you left blank, leaves 43 raw minus 1/2 a point for the 2 you got wrong, raw score of 42.5. </p>
<p>Whats so difficult about that?</p>
<p>Oh katierik, you gave me hope!!! Lit really got me screwed.</p>
<p>samiamy, your calculation is wrong.</p>
<p>Assuming 54 questions, 11 omitted, and 2 wrong:
54 - 11 - 2 - (2)(0.25) = 40.5, which rounds up to 41.</p>
