<p>So there is a large controversey about the parabolla question on the June math SAT and some kids are trying to get CB to throw out the q</p>
<p>If this happens, what happens to our raw scores. If it got that question right (even if it is tossed), but another question wrong, would I still have a raw score 100%, or would it still be like a 55/56 or whatever.</p>
<p>i wouldn't count on it. was it a grid-in question? or just poorly worded?</p>
<p>It wasn't a grid in, it was the last question of a 25 min multiple choice section. You can argue that it was "poorly worded" but you can also argue that the question is clear. The question completely depends on the word "interior", so we'll see what happens. I doubt it will be taken out, but hope it does :P</p>
<p>In the very rare cases when this has happened before, any answer that makes sense by any interpretation of the question becomes deemed a correct answer. So more than the usual number of test-takers will get correct answers on that question. Then the usual procedures </p>

<p>are followed to equate scaled scores on that version of the test to scaled scores from other versions of the test. You have nothing to worry about if this happens.</p>
<p>f%*# i remember that question. What was the answer?</p>
<p>^ Due to the controvesy, I don't think we're 100% sure. :)</p>
<p>If you did get the question wrong, as in picking neither of the two controversial answers, do you still get credit for the question?</p>
<p>i think the curve would go down (get worst) if the question was to be stricken from the test. </p>
<p>On the 2007 Saturday PSAT, one of the writing questions was not counted due to a printing error...1 wrong ended up being a 75.</p>

<p>That wasn't how the issue was resolved the last time this happened. Your answer still has to make sense according to some reasonable interpretation of the question for your answer to be counted as a correct answer.</p>
<p>What are the possible answers then, Butternut? Sorry to be so clueless.</p>
<p>Hm. I remember on one of the May tests it said on one of the writing sections "this question has been omitted" on the QAS. So if that were to happen on this question then wouldn't it be the same thing? They omit the question for everyone?</p>
<p>Two answers were A. none and D. II and III</p>
