<p>So how is this going to work? It seems like there were two drastically different tests. Is it still going to be the traditional 1 curve per test date? Or does each test get its own curve? If they have one curve, i'm guessing:
M: 800, 790, 770, 750 ,740
CR: 800, 800, 790, 770, 750, 730, 720</p>
<p>The purpose of a "curve" is to adjust for the difficulty of each test form so that scores are comparable. Two forms, two "curves." Four forms, four "curves."</p>
<p>what do the row of numbers mean? 800 790 770 750?
is that score for one wrong, two wrong and so forth?</p>
<p>Ya, those are what the rows mean.</p>
<p>phil, that's a tough Cr curve....</p>
<p>CR Prediction: 800 800 800 790 770 750 . . . .
Math: 800 790 770 750 740 720 . . . </p>
<p>Then again, what do I know about curves? I'm making an assumption based on the difficulty I guess.</p>
<p>All of the above mentioned seem like very, very tough scales. I highly doubt that they'll be quite this hard.</p>
<p>Why is everyone so harsh on math scales? The blue book shows that anywhere from 0-2 wrong in math could CONCEIVABLY be an 800. </p>
<p>Or we could pull a March 2005 with a 770 for one wrong in math. Ouch.</p>
<p>I think my CR curve prediction is pretty reasonable.</p>
<p>murasaki's curves aren't that bad.
on the may 2005 SAT, i missed 1 (1!!) math question, bam smacked w/ a 780.</p>
<p>what's why on the october 2005 SAT I didn't miss a single one and STILL got a 780!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>haha. j/k, i got an 800.</p>
