<p>Hi all! I am a first-timer at CC,I am just sooo frustrated now because the SAT scores I received are less than I have calculated using the Barron text book SAT evaluation…</p>

<p>here is a comparison
Barron book tole me my score should be I get
CR620 600
Math 740 720
CW 730~740 700</p>

<p>It’s my first(and I guess the only time) talking the SATs…Does it happen to everyone though?..SOS</p>

<p>Sorry.CC has totally screwed up my format
I meant
for CR, I calculated 620, but I get 600
Math, I calculated 740 I get 720
CW I calclated 73-~740 I get 700…</p>

<p>Uggggggggg</p>

<p>It’s pretty close seeing how Barrons is only off a little for each sections. You shouldn’t believe what they tell you for your scores since the tests are different…</p>

<p>Well, considering other outside factors (test anxiety, ‘freezing up’ during the test, not in your home) that may have had an impact on your score. Also, Barron’s tests aren’t the most reliable; make sure you use College Board’s Official Guide to the SAT next time you take practice tests.</p>
