<p>Math was easy, but I ran out of time (it is the first year that I went in knowing all the math topics (algebra 1, algebra 2, geometry), writing was manageable but not great, CR was ugly (and this is coming from somebody who got a 60 last year which is high for my school). Hopefully I got the 200 I was aiming for, anything higher and I will be thrilled…</p>
<p>I didn’t get to the last question for Section 4 Math. May get NM if a miracle happens.</p>
<p>I wish they gave the scores earlier than December.</p>
<p>The PSAT went really well for me. I don’t think I missed any on math and critical reading; I may have missed one on writing (just because it’s my weakest subject), but I’m pretty confident in my answers. Crossing my fingers for a 240!</p>
<p>I thought CR was easy… math was meh. Writing was all right. I figured out the last question in a math section right as she called time, but I was stupid and put down the wrong answer out of haste dfafafsk.</p>
<p>Unusually, I felt like math was easier than CR/W for me. Overall, I felt pretty good about the test after taking it, so I’m optimistic for my results.</p>
<p>I feel overly confident about the CR/W since those are my weakest but they felt easy. But in the end the SAT is what really matters :P</p>
<p>I felt confident about CR and M. Not so much on Writing. I hope I get NMS</p>
<p>CR and W were great- I have a doubt about one CR question but otherwise it was fine.
For my first time EVER I had time to spare after finishing a math section! (The first one, obviously.) That one was really easy, and except for one I skipped because I didn’t learn it I feel pretty confident, but the second math section was frustrating. I skipped one, know I got another one wrong, and have a lot of doubts.
I hope I get NMS (in NY)- my soph year score was 210 and logically with more math knowledge it should have increased- but I don’t know.</p>
<p>@MutaRiSC, AP Gov and AP psych are opposite day courses, and we have 9 slots a day!</p>
<p>I am 99% sure that I got everything right on the math sections since I had extra time to check all of my answers and there was not a single problem that I got stuck on. The only thing that I got caught up on were the last couple Writing passages which I could only see NO ERROR as the correct option. Here’s to hopefully getting a NMS.</p>
<p>Is the PSAT easier, harder, or just about the same as the SAT?</p>
<p>I thought it was harder than the October SAT, but I think that SAT might have been easier than they usually are.</p>
<p>Skipped two questions on math and I know I got at least two wrong (spent too much time on a problem I couldn’t remember how to solve so I didn’t check nearly enough… oops). I actually like math, but I can’t do it under time pressure. 
I make really dumb mistakes but feel confident afterwards because I understood the problem, I just mixed up my variables or something in my frenzy. So at best a 69, at worst probably a 60. I wanted a 70+ on every section, but I can deal with it by focusing on acing the actual SAT.</p>
<p>CR and W I felt pretty good about, so hopefully if I get close to 80 on both I’ll reach my goal of 220 and qualify for NMS (NY).</p>
<p>December can’t come soon enough… jeez</p>
<p>^ Same here man. I’m in calculus but I still tripped up on like an Algebra 1-level problem and wasted like 5 minutes on it. Ended up rushing 2 or 3 questions that I probably got wrong and skipping 2 more all together. CR was extremely easy for me too - maybe it’s just me but I felt the vocabulary and passages were both a LOT easier than last year’s. Writing was pretty straightforward too. I felt good about all the questions except the last couple which I rushed through. </p>
<p>Not to mention that I was sick and throwing up the night before, plus I was working off maybe 2 hours of sleep. I tried to get it rescheduled but the counselors said I couldn’t? So I just manned up and took it.</p>
<p>I really hope I have a good enough score for NMS. Since both my parents are currently unemployed and I just recently moved, I really need whatever money I can get. =/</p>
<p>I have never been more perplexed about a dog and his walking habits. </p>
<p>Cryptic, I know. :)</p>
<p>I’ve seen some people say the answer is 12 yet I still don’t understand how on the dog question!</p>
<p>I’ve heard 12 + 8 but I got 6</p>
<p>I reasoned that because six is an answer I reached roughly and since there are two initial doors, I multiplied by 2. Therefore I picked 12.</p>
<p>I almost chose 8 but since there was no 4, I decided against it.</p>
<p>Chose 8, was thinking about it later, it really is 12, but I don’t think SAT math is practical, it just tests logical reasoning skills. Anyway, the test went WAY better than sophomore year, I only skipped 1 question in writing, sophomore year I skipped 5 in each of the math sections I blew my previous score out of the water, everybody says you don’t need Algebra II to do good, but I think it helped a lot. what is the NMS cutoff in new york state?</p>
<p>^ NY’s cutoff tends to be around 220-221.</p>
<p>Also, the dog one was definitely 12.</p>
