anyone with the chance on the curve??? Also, we don’t know how they are grading this. The reading section only had 5 vocab and maybe they are making your total vocab a certain percentage, like what it always is. Same with the grid in. I only had 1 grid in mistake, that’s it for the math, and if they keep the grid in percentage, it would not affect me. PLEASE SOMEONE CHANCE ON MY EARLIER POST
WAS THE SPHERE INSCRIBED IN THE CUBE OR THE OTHER Way AROUND?
From what I can tell, math is like -40 now if you get one wrong sorry guys. But for CR, some people thought it was easy some hard so I think the cr curve will definitely be changed so that whatever number u got wrong. multiply by 1.4 that’s the number u get wrong total and scale it. IE if you got 4 wrong for CR in the first two sections, that means it’s 6 on the real so around 700 hopefully. That’s all I can assume now 
@Chrysanthemum14 Well I said A as in Ax^2, but yes it was the answer choice A as well. And whoops. I suppose it was two, but that doesn’t make a difference. Any positive number worked.
Was the square inscribed in circle section 8 or 9??
@lionbeast No. Also it was a sphere inside a cube. They were 3D figures.
@Kazoo98
The problem is pretty easy actually. I’m just not sure if I read it correctly :O.
So was there an answer of 2???
@Chrysanthemum14 @Kazoo98 isn’t that question now obsolete… Why argue about it? It was in section 8/9 right?
But is it a cancelled question?
Hello everyone,
So my sister took her exam today, and here’s what I think may happen eventually.
First, Collegeboard has said that they will be cancelling the affected sections. They are also stating that students who took a test that was not affected will have all three sections honored. Apparently there were some cases in which entire testing rooms (and centers) received correct 20min/20min forms and thus the test was administered correctly. Thus, they are saying that people who took the exam on a correct administration will have the tests graded normally. and students who had an affected administration will have scores based on 2 sections of each CR/math. This is not feasible b/c if they do try to score the affected students’ test, then they will have to provide a basis for how to extrapolate 2 sections into 3. What the official press release says is that the “test is designed so that 2 sections are enough to provide an accurate score.” But how is this possible? If this is true, then why are 3 sections even administered for a full test? Also, say 2 students with affected administrations got 5 wrong each, but 1 student got 4 wrong in the two 24 min sections and the other got 2 wrong in the two sections. How will they compensate for this? IMO, the only way they can come up with a reasonable extrapolation method is to say something like "based on previously accumulated data, students who have gotten x questions wrong in the first 2 section are likely at the (a) confidence level to score a certain scaled score. Will this fly? I don’t think so.
I think that the likely things they will do is to 1) honor the scores of all students INCLUDING those who got an extra 5 minutes PROVIDED that they do a statistical comparison that states that based on scoring sections 8 and 9 (which they are doing right now) students with an extra 5 minutes had a score that was not statistically different than those of students who had the regular 20 minutes. If the scores are statistically similar, then the scores are essentially the same. Of course, students who did not have the extra 5 minutes will say that they were disadvantaged, but statistics will show that scores were the same. They will presumably argue that 5 extra minutes made it easier for the affected students to achieve this similar score, but that will be very hard to prove and Collegeboard will be “in the safe”
The other thing that they might do is to cancel the June administration completely (the fairest possible decision IMO) and offer an alternate test date sometime between now and the October administration. Obviously students who believe that they did well will argue about this, but they will realistically have no way to back up their claims of having done well on this administration.
This is what my take is on this situation - please provide your thoughts.
added:
Besides, upon calling Collegeboard I was told that the press release and the decision to “cancel affected sections” was an interim decision and once a final decision is completed, likely after sections 8 & 9 have been initially scored and analyzed, an official notification will be sent to all students, either by phone or e-mail."
@djyoungqueef She said that it was before the absolute value question, so no, it counts. We are also in agreement, I just wrote the wrong number.
@lionbeast No it is an existent question that will get graded.
Wait so was the x^(t+y) a question that counts
Were the Jane Austen passages in Section 8/9?
I have a question.
If I cancel my scores like tomorrow or Wednesday, and then after I canceled my scores College Board releases news of a retake test, will I still be able to take the retake test offered?
However, if I don’t cancel my scores and they offer a retake, will my scores for the June 6 SAT still show up?
Please help me.
@Em1509 no
@EasyNotSoMuch123 Indeed.
Can everyone stop repeating questions? It is ridiculous. Read back a few pages, and you’ll find your answers.
What was section 8 or 9??
Is it Critical reading with the easter island ? Or a math section???

@sssyoung Both sections were canceled. Easter island was included in the cancelled sections.
