March 2013 SAT Countdown/Scores Thread

<p>CR: 800 (High IQ score)
M: 800 (3 practice tests)
W: 610 (#lazy #Y.O.L.O)</p>

<p>Total: 2210</p>

<p>Probably should’ve listened to all the overachievers telling me to study for the writing section. Can’t complain though, for the minimal amount of work I’ve put in my results aren’t bad. </p>

<p>My secret: Stay up til 1 am the day before doing trippy cups. :D</p>

<p>@stuckinohio11 I can totally relate with you. I got a 2060 (640 W, 680 CR, 740 M) and it made me really really happy… until I got to this thread. Seems so unfair! I guess there’s always hope to do better on the second try.</p>

<p>Batman-
Yeah you can do better but that’s still an awesome score! You can get into so many schools and still get money with that. People seem to not realize that.</p>

<p>2150
CR: 680
M: 740
W:730 (MC:68 Essay: 11)</p>

<p>I was so happy about my writing score and then I was devastated about my reading and math score. I’ve never gotten a math problem wrong or lower than a 750 in reading :/</p>

<p>Luckily this is was my first time, but now I have to study for this and APs…</p>

<p>Well, here it is. 1880.</p>

<p>CR: 690
M: 570
W: 620</p>

<p>It’s not exactly what you see everyday on an SAT CC thread, but I won’t let myself feel inferior, or compare myself all these terrific scores. Most importantly, I won’t tie my self-worth to a test score. Yeah, I will retake and aim for a higher score, but I really think that many CCers are intimidated by seeing these scores, and they shouldn’t be! I was content with my score because I saw improvement from my PSAT, but when I saw a couple of these other ones, I began to second guess myself. However, I remembered that I’m still learning/improving. My point is don’t worry about everyone else’s score. If you’re not satisfied, try again! :)</p>

<p>On that note, congrats to everyone who reached their goal score! :smiley: </p>

<p>I will be retaking in October, studying over the summer. I know I can bring up my math score a good deal, and as soon as I’m able to see what went wrong with my writing, I’ll start focusing on that. I never knew how to study for critical reading, so I guess I have to sit around and read this summer ;p My goal is to reach 1400+ or 2000+, which means 140+ for CR&M or 120+ for combined. Wish me luck, guys!</p>

<p>I got an 11 essay score too! Pretty proud of myself right now :’)</p>

<p>@stuckinohio and @batman A 2060 isn’t bad, especially for your first time! I got a 2010 in October but brought it up with studying (every practice test I could find) and a little luck to a 2340. Good luck!</p>

<p>@kimmylouie how’d you see the essay score?</p>

<p>@heyhihello I know you didn’t ask me but I may as well answer. </p>

<ol>
<li>Go to collegeboard.org</li>
<li>Log in</li>
<li>Click on SAT Scores</li>
<li>Click on available</li>
</ol>

<p>Your individual scores and your essay score should be up there. It was for me, anyway. Good luck!</p>

<p>@ionlyflyaway when i click available, it brings me to “my organizer” and i cant find my scores anywhere, even when i click “view my scores” (it brings me back to my organizer) D:</p>

<p>That same thing happened to me when I first started looking for my scores. Perhaps yours were delayed a bit. I wouldn’t worry about it too much since I have my scores now and I experienced the same thing you did, so you should be able to get to them soon.</p>

<p>Assuming none omitted:</p>

<p>On math, -2 was a 740. (nasty curve)
On the critical reading, -6 was a 720.
On the writing, -7 and a 10/12 on the essay was a 670.</p>

<p>The curve wasn’t extremely generous, but the actual exam wasn’t too bad.</p>

<p>Writing curve was horrible. Three wrong and the ra score was a 69</p>

<p>For CR, 6 wrong is -7.5 (-8) which is 720. For writing mc, 2 mistake (-2.5/-3) is 73.</p>

<p>Sent from my NookColor using CC</p>

<p>D: Writing i got 3 wrong 1 omit, 8 on essay… 660. Only 3 wrong! The curve was terrible</p>

<p>Yeah 1 wrong was 76 on writing.</p>

<p>Reading curve didn’t seem all too bad though. 5 wrong 1 omit for a 720 seems decent. Although I definitely could of done better.</p>

<p>Is anyone taking the May SAT or is everyone happy with their scores?</p>

<p>I think I have the worst score compared to all of you guys. I have gotten a 1620: 600M 480CR 540W. Even though it is my first test I feel so depressed, disappointed, and shameful with my score. Would anyone that have gotten over 2000 care to give me tips, advices, plans to increase my score dramatically(above 2000)? I’m planning to retake in June and during October of my senior year. I am also wondering if its even possible to increase my score by 400+ within 2-6 months?</p>

<p>680CR (8 wrong)
760M (1 wrong, harsh curve much?)
730W (0 wrong, 6 essay)</p>

<p>Retaking in the fall for CR and because I’m super annoyed that something as subjective as an essay could lower my writing score 70 points.</p>

<p>We almost got the same score Seaswallowed! 8 wrong in critical reading for a 680, 1 wrong in math for a 760, except I got a 12 on my essay with zero wrong in multiple choice for writing (800!!! Yay!)</p>
