Test Preparation

<p>Ok, so how exactly are the scoring curves for the May SAT. Please discuss!!</p>

<p>More specifically, could you all answer the following questions :-</p>

<ol>
<li><p>What is the cut off for getting a 800 on Math(like how many questions can you get wrong and still get a 800? )</p></li>
<li><p>If you get a 12 on the essay, then what are the number of Multiple Choices you can get wrong and still get a 800?</p></li>
<li><p>If you get a 10 on your essay, is there anyway you can get an overall 800 on writing?</p></li>
<li><p>What is the cut off for getting an 800 on Critical reading?(like how many questions can you get wrong and still get a 800? )</p></li>
</ol>

<p>ALSO PLEASE RATE THE DIFFICULTY LEVEL OF THE MAY TEST ON THE WHOLE AS EITHER EASY,MEDIUM OR DIFFICULT.</p>

<p>Thaaanks :)</p>

<p>I will ignore #2 and #3, sorry, not enough time.</p>

<p>1) Typically you can’t get any wrong for an 800 on math. Some tests have had -1 = 800 but this is unusual.</p>

<p>4) Typically you can get up to two wrong for an 800 on CR, but sometimes you can get only one wrong.</p>

<p>The math curve for May was 800-790-760, which suggests an average math test (or a little harder than usual based on more recent tests).</p>

<p>I got an 800 in writing with 79 mc and 10 essay… which doesnt make sense to me. but I’ll take it. Someone else on a thread tho, said he got a 790 with the same 79 mc and 10 essay… weird…</p>

<p>I got a 800 w with 76 and 12. I believe 76 is -2.</p>
