<p>xiggi,
pls let us know, when you figure it out, if you think the curve has changed on any of the components of the SAT for this round.
How many could one get wrong on the Math this time and still clear 700?
One poster mentioned that CB said that the score report delay was due to a record number of tests taken that day.
Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>The score has been posted. Now it is 10:00PM on Friday.</p>
<p>2280: 700 CR/800M/780W/10 essay</p>
<p>Soooooo ****ed about writing. I know which one I missed and it was a really, really dumb one. 1 question from the coveted 2300…:(</p>
<p>so excited! raised my score to a 2310… my goal was to break 2300 so i’m psyched :)</p>
<p>Overall 2200</p>
<p>CR: 750 - big surprise, got 64 on PSAT
M: 760 - I screwed up on the short section, did well otherwise
WR: 690 - Whoops, only 8 on the essay</p>
<p>Overall, I’m extremely pleased, I thought CR was going to be my biggest problem, and I know I can more easily improve Math and WR for next time. I’m only a sophomore and have plenty of time for retakes (oh boy! more tests). My goal for next time would be a 2300 superscored.</p>
<p>I’m feeling real good with my first official SAT scores!</p>
<p>Critical Reading: 680
Math: 720
Writing: 700
Essay: 10
Total out of 2400: 2100
Total (M + CR) out of 1600: 1400</p>
<p>Critical Reading: 700
Math: 610
Writing: 760
Total: 2070</p>
<p>My first time taking the SAT. I’m disappointed because no matter how hard I prep in math, I never do well (including practice tests). That’s the only section that’s bringing my scores down.</p>
<p>I did bad. 
really bad. </p>
<p>CR: 720
M: 690
W: 590 (I thought this was my strongest area)</p>
<p>Overall: 2000 (exact)</p>
<p>I got a 550 in critical reading, 620 in math, 570 in writing and an 8 on the essay. I got the scores I need for my too school but I was kind of disappointed with everything except critical reading; it’s my weakness. Retaking them in June and hoping to get at least a 2000</p>
<p>math stayed the same. writing up 50. CR up 10</p>
<p>CR: 680
M: 620 (ouch)
W: 700 (i wish this was my math score)</p>
<p>combined = 2000/2400
CR+M = 1400/1600</p>
<p>Wow, my scores suck xD
I was hoping for better in writing, but meh. Math was what I expected lol
CR 680
M 560
W 700
Preparing for this may have been beneficial… I’m going to retake it in the fall, I guess.</p>
<p>do you guys think i should retake with 2210 because the writing section doesn’t matter too much?</p>
<p>My 11th happiest day of my life
CR: 660 - Best mark I’ve ever gotten
Math: 790 - Got one wrong but didn’t the curve was this lenient
Writing 750 - Got 100% on MC section but got 6 on essay… (the most disappointing section)…
Total : 2200
!!!</p>
<p>I’m really surprised at my essay score of 12. I had two examples, one with a made up book written by a made up author, another with a personal example. I didn’t even put any big words in that essay! But, the essay prompt was really easy (it was about whether real success is achieved by one person or by a group of people; I live in Canada by the way), and the essay prompt was extremely similar to an essay prompt I saw somewhere in a prep book. I wrote my essay for practice at that time and it paid off! I put down the exact same essay (with slight variations; the examples were the same though) I wrote over a month ago!</p>
<p>Just goes to show everybody that personal examples do work when you make your essay fun to read and also straightforward. You have to clearly show what you believe and why. You don’t need fancy words, or long sentences (sentence variation helps; that’s what I did), and most of all, you don’t need examples from history or literature. If you can make up examples, for history or literature (I did), that’s good too.</p>
<p>Physics 790</p>
<p>anyone else benefited from the extremely generous Math curve??
only if my marker wasn’t so harsh on my essay,…</p>
<p>I’m also surprised at my reading score of 800! From the consolidated list you guys made, I knew for sure that I got 2 wrong, and I guess that was it! Normally -3 gives you 780-790 I believe?</p>
<p>Congrats to all those who got great scores! You must all be so happy! Good luck on your future endeavors, and to all those you are retaking the test, good luck!</p>
<p>JBCHUN: I certainly benefitted from the generous curve. I thought I got one wrong, and I was so worried that I might get a 780 or 770 because of a harsh curve! But I didn’t. I got a 790 like you!</p>
<p>@studyingforchem
NICE!!
so jealous of your CR mark though
i’m going to read and study hard to be like you!</p>
<p>CR 750
M 710
W 800 11 essay 80 MC</p>
<p>Higher than I hoped on CR. Far lower than I hoped on Math–I thought I only got one wrong. Not too surprised by Writing. Overall pretty satisfied.</p>
