The SAT is NOT curved. If every single person who took the October SAT got a perfect score (missed not a single question and scored a 12 on the essay) then each of them would receive a 1600. Alternately, if one dummy missed 1 question, and the rest of us got every single question right, the dummy would get like a 1550, and we’d all get 1600s. He would not get a 200. So no, the test is not curved, by definition.
