<p>momtimes3…The formula of M+CR+(10 x Writing MC subscore) is correct, and I confirmed that with NMSC by phone. NMSC is famous (or infamous) for not putting some of the most important information in the whole process in writing, but they will sometimes provide it over the phone if you catch the right person. Whether or not the 1960 score that has been required for the past several years will again be the minimum this year won’t be known for sure until at least September. I wouldn’t expect it to change as that score has held through the last several years with some fairly wide variations in state cutoff scores. There’s still a remote possibility it could change, but I’d be shocked if the minimum required were to jump more than 80 points.</p>
