<p>So your score is based on a curve...correct?</p>
<p>Well that curve is based on how many people take the test....correct?</p>
<p>So if you take the SAT on a date where most people WON'T take it (say the Dec. one), then the same amount correct/amount wrong/amount omit for say May or June (where almost everybody takes it) the score would be higher....correct?</p>
<p>I might be totally wrong.</p>
<p>First question: yes.</p>
<p>Next questions: no. The curve only reflects the (slightly varying) difficulty of the test, not the number of people taking the test on that date.</p>
<p>So, no, not totally wrong, just 66.7% wrong :)</p>
<p>Haha… yeah. And even if you DO get super lucky and happen to take the test on an easy curve date, thus getting a higher score than you deserve/expect, I don’t think it’ll make a difference to adcoms. I mean, I don’t think colleges go through and calculate curves and then skew people’s SAT dates based on when they took it or anything…</p>
