Spark Notes SAT Physics score a Joke?
I wanted to take a SAT Physics practice test, so I went to spark notes. After the first 11 questions I wanted to see how many I got right. I got 7 right and 4 wrong, thus giving me a raw score of 6/75. Spark notes said that would give me a 450! That can't possibly be accurate? A 450 with missing 4/11 and not even doing the other 64??

yes, but is it reflective of the actual SAT exam?

Pretty much, yes. I was considering taking the Latin Vergil test tomorrow in an attempt to get a 200, but I have now cowed out of the pursuit due to the very real fear that I will not be able to accomplish my goal, as getting -15 on the test is easier said than done. It takes significant effort to fail well.
