The Time has come: December 2010 SAT Results Thread

<p>Dun dun dunnn</p>

<p>seeing that alot of seniors took it (my test center) the curve must have been harder than november. But “curves” are really uncertain and essentially a waste of time</p>

<p>yeah, so im guessing if i got 10 wrong on Cr it would be around 650?</p>

<p>^The curve is predetermined…</p>

<p>i am so mad! I wanted them to come out at midnight but they come out at 4 AM for me! I dont know if I want to sleep that late. But I will be in so much anxiety…</p>

<p>ahh gonna check before school tmw ://</p>

<p>^^^Can somebody clear up the whole predetermined curve thing? I know that neither of the 2 extremes (completely predetermined/not predetermined at all) is true but that CB does some weird combination of the two. I’ve heard that PioneerJones explains it well. Can anybody explain how exactly CB determines curves?</p>

<p>7 hours of hell left</p>

<p>Look up PioneerJones’s posts.</p>

<p>But basically, its predetermined almost all the time. Either way, the quality of the people taking the test will not affect the curve.</p>

<p>about 6 hours left</p>

<p>@needshelp1212, cause i haven’t even opened the book yet since my teacher also assigned an essay to hand in tomorrow :frowning: i really have no choice.</p>

<p>well lovexlight: I don’t have a midterm for history tomorrow but i have a huge test on the unit progressivism. Just studied for the last 2 hours and a half so i think im going to bed… setting my alarm for 6!</p>

<p>haha lucky you…good luck on your scores & your test</p>

<p>i really need to get above 2200… about 4 hours left and i can’t sleep</p>

<p>Regarding the curve, it’s always predetermined based on a test group about 10 years ago or so - at least this is what an SAT tutor says; some of his friends work for CB, and there are CB employees whose sole job is to figure out curves and what not. Quite complicated…</p>

<p>It’s 12 pm here in India. :smiley:
But then it’s better for you guys when college decisions come out. I remember I fell asleep waiting for my EA reply on 15th w/ lights on. ;)</p>
