<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Do curves also help people who do poorly on the subject tests? So, for instance, would a lower raw score that evens out to 800 make an even lower raw score even out to a higher as well?</p>

<p>What exactly are you trying to ask?</p>

<p>so, I’ve been going by the scoring chart for the math 2 subject test on sparknotes. Basically, if I need a raw score of 23 to make a 620 according to that chart, would a curve decrease the raw score I would need?</p>

<p>the chart: [SparkNotes:</a> SAT Subject Test: Math Level 2: Math IIC Scoring](<a href=“SparkNotes: Today's Most Popular Study Guides”>SparkNotes: Today's Most Popular Study Guides)</p>

<p>The 620 already reflects any “curve” that has been applied to the raw score.</p>
