<p>The Understanding PSAT guide of the CB has two charts of points and their corresponding scores, one for form W and one for form S.
If, say I, get 35/39 question right in writing, 4 wrong, what is my raw score?</p>

<p>and what if I get 35/39 questions right, but leave blank 4. What is my raw score also?</p>

<p>W and S stand for Wednesday and Saturday, the 2 days that the PSAT is given. The W is the scores for the test taken on Wednesday, and S is for the Saturday scores.</p>

<p>Your raw score is calculated by the # of q right - 1/4 of the # of q wrong.</p>

<p>So 35- (1/4*4) =34 raw score</p>

<p>If you skipped te 4 it would be
35 - (1/4*0)= 35 raw score</p>
