<p>Can somebody please write me a detailed conversion list that converts Raw > Scaled > Percentiles?</p>
<p>By detailed, I mean the Percentiles do not only have the 50% percentile, but also, for example, if you get 712 for Reading, you will definitely get more than 50% percentile, but EXACTLY how much? (this is an example!!)</p>
<p>It doesn't matter what year the scale is. I just need one lol. I can't buy a preparation book so it's hard for me to convert my scores.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance !!!</p>
<p>Well, the actual scale is based upon SSAT scores from over three years. Practice books may have a scale, which may be precise, but it is difficult to really calculate a scaled percentile (at least to my knowledge). Also, it is difficult to estimate the degree to which a score will be scaled. For example, a reading score may only start scaling (from 1/sample percentile) at 420 and stop scaling (at 99 percentile) at 712. The rate at which it scales is also not constant throughout the curve. </p>
<p>That was an answer to your call for an “exact” (more likely, “precise”) scale. Test experts (something which I am not), however, may be able to provide a somewhat precise scale to fit your needs. I know, also, that the scale is configured similarly to the CollegeBoard SAT. I have the PSAT scale somewhere, and I will see if I can create a rough bell curve, in accordance with SAT guidelines, for the SSAT (of course, I need to find my PSAT guide from October 14th first which, considering my lack of organization, will be difficult).</p>
<p>I am curious, though, why do you need a scale? Without a practice/prep exam book what do you hope to gain from it. I guess you could look at it an say I need “at least” this much to get this percentile but it’s hard to even estimate the raw score. </p>
<p>Maybe I am mistaken about all of this. Let me know.</p>
<p>Princeton Review has a pretty good scale</p>
