how about:

2 omit (1 MC, 1 incorrect grid-in)
1 incorrect MC

.. that's based off of what people are saying the answers are on this board .. so i may have missed another that people are forgetting.. if anything i think 2 more wrong max ..

how do you guys "know" what you got? is it just from people on here talking about the answers.? because who says they are right, and who says you didn't **** up an easy problem on accident?

Isn't each problem typically worth about 20 points. And an omit is 10.
So if you missed 4-5 depending on the curve that puts you at about 700

Three incorrect with two omitted means a raw score of 48, which should get you a 700, based on typical recent tests...

The score is based on a raw score in which your score is essentially
#correct - (#wrong/4) -- incorrect gridins don't count for #wrong tho
That number is then rounded to the nearest integer and given a score out of 800 based on the curve of the given test

I think this might be around a 720? It really depends on the curve. From what I hear, the curve can be really different between tests .

^ Sorry, that was a response to AKittka. Whoops.

To GetMeIn03: I'm going to guess this is either a high 600 or a 700.
