Official January SAT I Results

<p>CR: 730 (Definitely the Poem Trans Passages)
M: 740 (I thought it would be my highest lol)
W: 800 (Huh? lmao)
T: 2270
I’m definitely retaking; wasn’t my best effort by far.</p>

<p>Not sure what to make of my results. </p>

<p>CR: 750 (HOLY CRAP. I was not expecting that. It shot up like 100+ points from practice tests! Where did that come from?)
M: 550 (Ho hum not surprised. It did drop down like 20 points from my PSAT scores though.)
W: 570 (56 MC and 8 essay. Dropped down about 100+ points from practice tests. I wasn’t expecting that either. Maybe they went towards CR? haha)</p>

<p>I was so confident that my writing would be about the same as my CR, if not better. What happened? I know I should be higher than that! I would retake to fix it and because I’m really happy with my CR reading score so I want writing to match. But I know that math will not budge no matter how hard I prepare! Would it be wasting my time to study for the SAT and retake or just go on to the ACT?</p>

<p>Y’know I WOULD be the person to have a math score 200 points lower than their reading score. Haha.</p>

<p>640 CR (yikes)
720 M
680 W (69/8)
2040 total. </p>

<p>I’m actually pretty pleased for my first time. I’m retaking just because I KNOW I can do better (it’s 200 lower than my PSAT’s, actually). I’m not making excuses, but I had the flu that day, and I doubt it effected my results much, but at least I know next time I won’t personally FEEL like such crap during the test.</p>

<p>CR -630<br>
M -520<br>
W -530
-7 on the essay…</p>

<p>Agh, oh well. I’m a really slow test-taker, and I didn’t study whatsoever.
It was predictable, but depressing nonetheless.</p>

<p>720-CR
790-Math
770-WR (73/11)</p>

<p>2280</p>

<p>V: 720
M: 760
W: 800</p>

<p>helpp i’m not sure whether or not to retake…it was my first one</p>

<p>CR:650
W: 670 (8 on essay, little bit disappointed)
M: 590 (expected. Not a math person whatsoever)
Total: 1910
Going to retake to see if I can push it into the 2000s :slight_smile: first time, so I’m cool with it.</p>

<p>Math:800
Writing:800 (11 on essay)
Reading:680
Total: 2280</p>

<p>I’m not sure if I should retake to bump my reading score. I plan on applying to Ivys, and I know this is below their mid-50.</p>

<p>First time taking…</p>

<p>M- 800
CR- 670 (ARgggghh!!!)
W-790 (Essay:10 MC:77)</p>

<p>Definitely retaking…</p>

<p>The writing MC was tough–I think the “known to be” question got a lot of people.</p>

<p>I’m also surprised at what low essay scores are coming out for 800s on W. I wrote a 9 essay and got an 800 and I’m seeing other essays as low as 8. What’s up?</p>

<p>M:700 Can’t believe it (should be 800 after all that practice)
CR:540 (around the score i expected)
W:610 (i did so much but still so low…sigh…)
56/80 and 10 essay
I was expecting mid 1900s and maybe even 2000+
1850…very disappointed</p>

<p>Goal for may SAT: 2000+
Goal for Sep and Oct SAT: 2200+</p>

<p>overall this is a modest score i guess…in a way good cause it will motivate me to study :)</p>

<p>good job everyone!</p>

<p>M: 650
W: 650
CR: 650</p>

<p>total: 1950</p>

<p>haha i never expected it to be all exactly the same. drat! i really wanted to crack a 2000 the first time too. i so could have gotten a 700 on my CR if it weren’t for careless mistakes. i’m retaking it again in march. may will be my last shot and i will be done with it. i think the score will hit me harder tomorrow, well…technically it is tomorrow morning here (12:36 AM) but still. oh well.</p>

<p>international student (Romania) </p>

<p>wow, you really must have had a killer essay topic - I see scores of 800 coupled with essays of 8…</p>

<p>The January test was my first time ever taking the actual test, so I’m pretty happy with how I did the first time around.</p>

<p>CR: 750 (around what I expected, though I’ve gotten 800 on practice tests)
W: 800 (12 essay)
M: 550 (exactly 100 points below my usual score…I’m re-taking in May because I have no clue what happened here)</p>

<p>All I want is a 650 math and I’ll be satisfied. :-)</p>

<p>Well done,</p>

<p>My S scored for the first time</p>

<p>M - 720
W - 770 (11 essay)
CR - 800</p>

<p>2290</p>

<p>He is interested in pretty selective schools but some have encouraged him not to retake while others have said that he should try to improve his math score. He is not inclined says he may do the ACT. Any suggestions?</p>

<p>privileged, your son should definitely retake. My son’s Sept.'07 Act score of a 35 was sent to Harvard before. Today he got a 36 on the Feb’08 ACT. After calling Harvard today, I realized that retaking the standardised test doesn’t make anybody obsessive or perfectionist, but retaking more than 3 times is bad. So I have sent the new score to Harvard.</p>

<p>My scores are
CR:550
Math:720
W:610(essay:8) the essay about groups was a stupid one.</p>

<p>That is worse because on december 2007 I got
CR:540
Math:740
W:620(essay:8)“I hate no.8”</p>

<p>dude83190, how did you improve your score from a 1100 ( out of 1600) to a perfect score? This is amazing; share with everybody. This is the highest increase (500 points) I ever seen.</p>
