Predict difficulty of November SAT

<p>CR: Tough sentence completions, easy passages. overall…about average. -2 is 800.
M: Insanely difficult. -1 will be 800.
WR: A tad simpler than usual. </p>

<p>This is my prediction.</p>

<p>No one knows.
I suggest you kidnap an ETS employee and torture him until he spills the beans.</p>

<p>CR: moderate scs, moderate passages with tricky questions (ugh!)
M: easy until the last two in each section
WR: deceptively easy
Essay topic: I am hoping for a topic like assignment 1 on the October SAT. My greatest fear is being unable to think of good examples and having to write a bunch of bs.</p>

<p>^Good idea - lol ETS lol</p>

<p>Well, I’m hoping for an easy math section. I can handle hard q’s in CR and W, but the math is a killer.</p>

<p>Worthless thread… both “predictions” how hard the test would be beforehand, and after the test “predictions” for a unrealistically good curve. </p>

<p>Just take the test. This just raises your anxiety.</p>

<p>you based your predictions on what?? ur hunch?</p>

<p>I’m guessing math and reading will be harder and writing will be about the same (as it usually seems to be)</p>

<p>this is not pointless. i have a huge hunch. and i’m not nervous about this test at all, i already have a 2370 and I’m just taking an honest stab at 2400. if i miss a few questions and know that my score won’t improve i’ll just cancel my scores and leave.</p>

<p>^ what’s the point in taking it again if you’ve already gotten a 2370?</p>

<p>when i got a 35 on my ACT, i was done… there’s really no point in going any higher (plus, i think they favor more very good but non-perfect scores than the 2400s and the 36s)</p>

<p>i mean, i understand the want to get that perfect score, and if you’re fully capable, then all to you, but as far as college admissions are concerned, there’s no difference between a 2370 and a 2400… really, there’s probably no difference past 2300 and not too much difference from 2250 and up</p>

<p>^Hey, ChoklitRain is an XC runner and XC runners never give up. They stick out, through thick and thin. That’s why some people can run a 5k in under 20 and others can’t. That’s the difference between you and him Peytoncline.</p>

<p>to choklitRain</p>

<p>if you already have a 2370 and you are still going for 2400 colleges will reject you automatically because a 2370 is as good as 2400 and colleges will think that you are just wasting your time instead of doing something else
but that’s just my 2 cents…</p>

<p>^forget it. He’s the kind of person that the more ppl ask him to quit, the more he feels confident about himself.</p>

<p>This thread is full of morons.</p>

<p>^And you’re the biggest…</p>

<p>^ Nope. I think the guy that has lurked around in the SAT forum for all the few weeks he’s been in here, giving nonsense advice and gloating over his stupid score goes pretty high up in the moronic scale to me… add that to the guy uselessly predicting the difficulty of an upcoming SAT, with a 2370 on his belt… that pretty much sums up this entire thread.</p>

<p>the headline scared me from the start but it turned out kind of disappoint me 'cos just his hunch ;more; he already had 2370 , surely his view is different than mine. In a nutshell, this thread brings me no info
some gals tell me the Nov SATs are way more difficult than Oct SATs. I don’t want it to come true :((:((</p>

<p>I don’t have enough data (i.e., past November SAT curves) to compare November tests with other months, but even so, the CB has every reason <em>not</em> to make a particular month harder than another month, on average. Even though the curve compensates for difficulty, there are plenty of people that would avoid a hard test and pile into another month, which is not helpful to the CB.</p>

<p>BTW, other months in which I <em>do</em> have plenty of curve data (Jan, Mar, May, Oct) do not show any pattern of easy or hard.</p>

<p>So: don’t worry about it!</p>

<p>@Gryffon. I have actually avoided most of the “post your score” threads. Also, my advice is clearly not nonsense because I used my own advice to get a high a score. I’m just gonna get my 2400 this Saturday like the badass that I am, and then forget about the SAT forever.</p>

<p>Shiomi- A 5k under 20 minutes is not difficult.</p>
