<p>Okay in Barron’s book, the curve says that 62 raw score is approx. a 720.
In PR, the curve says that 62 is approx. a 680.
Which one’s right?</p>

<p>But then it depends on who takes it.
So if it was a hard test than the curve is easier.</p>

<p>Wait so why is my PR review book wrong?!
Man I hope you are right! That means that, according to the list that one idiot put i up, i got approx. 10 wrong and i skipped five which equals a total raw score of 62.
I gota 720??! That seems a bit wrong…</p>

5

<p>lol. DONT WORRY. haha
If the test was hard …than i’m sure a lot of people are going to miss a lot of questions so the curve will be easier…</p>

6

<p>■■■■■ a raw score of 62 equalling a 720 looks a bit too high, but HEY! I hope i got that :D</p>

7

<p>^ lol.
I hope so too… cause i know i skipped 3…cause I knew I’d get them wrong if I tried to guess, and I thought it’d be better to skip than get them wrong. haha</p>

8

<p>But according to what ppl have told me, the bio subject test had the harshest curve. Hm…</p>

9

<p>^ Yeah it does along with math IIC/IC.
BUT… there’s always a chance that a lot of people think that the test was hard and don’t get a lot of right answers.</p>

10

<p>Oh god I hope the list is right becaue I really hope i got that 720! :smiley:
And of course that people do really bad on the test too…</p>

11

<p>lol. yeah… we will see…when do the scores come out? do you know?</p>

12

<p>Umm prolly like June 20 something
its usaully 20 days after the test date</p>

13

<p>gah. That’s soo far away! lol. I think I’ll forget I took the test by then. lol</p>

14

<p>June 21, according to Collegeboard.com.</p>

<p>But I think they normally change the date as it approaches to an earlier date, so maybe… June 18???</p>

15

<p>^ I hope so. lol</p>

16

<p>How old is the book that the curve was gotten from??
Lmao I hope they didnt change the curves X_X</p>

17

<p>idk. ? you mean the one I posted…
I got it off that forum post in this section… just go and click on the link.</p>

18

<p>Yeah the person says that he/she got it from the official sat subject test book and thats from 2005. so do you think thye’ve changed the curve? =&lt;/p>

19

<p>ohhh.
umm… idk? it REALLY does depend on who takes it
Like for example, on one of the SATs II BIO this year someone missed four and still got an 800.</p>

20

<p>Sweet! I hope its the same for us…i really wanna get 700+!!!
I should be able to since the score always comes close to the scale SAT ppl give. Like for the SAT reasoning, they usually fell +/- 10 than the scores the gave on the practice book scale.</p>
