WILL THE CURVE STAY THE SAME?!?

<p>I have a question: if a test is recycled, will it's curve stay the same as before or will CB equate again because the students' performances and the experimental sections are different?</p>

<p>First of all, it’s not a “curve.” I suggest you learn what that term means and then read the link below:</p>

<p>Second, of course the score conversion stays the same. Why would it matter if students’ performances were different? From the link above: “Equating ensures that the different forms of the test or the level of ability of the students with whom you are tested do not affect your score.” In other words, the score conversion has nothing to do with students’ performances on a particular test date.</p>

<p>Isn’t this all obvious anyway–and not just because the information can be found effortlessly at the College Board’s website, the most obviously place to look for it? After all, what good would the test be if it only compared students to others who took the same version of the test on the same date? When there is a problem at a test center and they have to do a special makeup test for just a hundred students, do you really think the best one of the hundred students automatically gets 2400? What good would a test like that be?</p>
