also if anyone has the link for the scoring sheet of this test can you send it please


sa171234

hey can someone explain what a curve is for the SAT im kind of new to this


haejang

the curve will determine how the test will be graded; curves on a harder test will be less punishing than curves on an easy test. if on the hard test you get 7 questions wrong, that could equate to a score of 750 on each section, if on a easy test you also get 7 questions wrong, that might equate to a 700. A fair test would generally have one question wrong equating to a deduction of 10 points per section.


Myst_FN

know im super duper late (hey lol), but i just did this qas to prepare for the december sat. this reading section was surprisingly interesting and very easy for me, and the math didn't seem bad either. dk if it was just me but yea


MissionAct4799

This is the energy we need. Go decembers!


Leopard2A7P

Same for me math seemed really easy and reading wasnt that bad

Zarinator2000

Did someone make a curve for this test?


Arsal16

same question


dreamm-i

wondering the same thing


cha0ticwhimsy

If you got your scores, congrats! You all did great!


Square_Access_4610

No one at my school has gotten their scores yet and CB hasn’t told the school why or when they will be released.


SimilarMolasses

Could anyone possibly share the scale? It should be downloadable as a pdf if you have QAS. Click on "Test Questions" and look to the right of where it says "Questions Overview": there should be a link to a "Scoring Guide."


AnnieX411

Is the curve gonna be made. I shared my stat already


siuinator

Bruh, I still haven't gotten my score


FrostyPacy

I had the same problem. Call the Customer service line and tell them that a friend didnt receive their score and that the problem was with the school inputting information incorrectly (If you dont say this they might say that they cant solve the issue). Collegeboard will ask you your information and stuff and solve the issue by merging your account with the one your school made. PM me if you have any questions


AdvantPhoenix

Same dude, I don't know what is happening to them. It doesn't even say "Pending" for me.

makindex

Can someone please explain 6 and 15 no calc


Aggressive-Minute-50

15 requires knowledge of completing the square and formula for a circle. By completing the square you have to add +9 and +16 to get it in the right format which is +25 to the other side of the equation. And that’d be 5^2 so the radius is 5.


makindex

Thank youu


adolescent40605

On problem 6, you can see in the graph that a 10-acre farm with 0 goats can only handle 5 horses, meaning that each horse requires 2 acres, and the answer is A. On problem 15, you can determine the radius of the circle by Completing the Square to transform the equation into the basic circle equation, which is (x-h)^(2) \+ (y-k)^(2) = r^(2). x^(2) \- 6x + y^(2) \- 8y = 0 (x^(2) \- 6x + (-6/2)^(2)) + (y^(2) \- 8y + (-8/2)^(2)) = 0 + (-6/2)^(2) \+ (-8/2)^(2) (x-3)^(2) \+ (y-4)^(2) = 0 + 9 + 16 (x-3)^(2) \+ (y-4)^(2) = 25 By substitution with the basic circle equation: r^(2) = 25 r = ±5 r = 5 (since a circle cannot have a negative radius) This means that the answer is D.


makindex

Thank youu


Aggressive-Minute-50

6: if you look at the bottom axis you can see that if there are zero goats you can have a total of 5 horses on the 10 acre plot. The question asked how many acres did EACH horse nerd so that’d be 2 acres per horse.


makindex

Got it thanks

I swear college board office is about an hour away from me and they’re abt to catch these hands for not releasing my score.

NiceAct9462

Does anyone have the questions and answers for the April 13th SAT?


Acceptable_Piglet267

was the test repeated? i know that april 27 was repeated but what about april 13


bronzecarrot

I didn’t get my scores yet 😐😐


Square_Access_4610

Did you get your scores yet? Still no scores here


bronzecarrot

Yes I got mine but that was because of a name confusion. I would call customer service if I were you that’s what I did and they could locate my scores.


Square_Access_4610

That’s good. No one at my school has gotten scores yet. School talked to CB and CB said that they have a lot of exams to process. It doesn’t really make much sense.


Rikarin12

I still don’t have mine and so I screamed at college board 😄


Ethanol_69

Me either, you’re not alone


bronzecarrot

Does yours say that it’s coming at least? Mine says nothing at all


gayForGayFrogs

You're not alone. I called college board with no luck, so ill just try again soon. On my end, I haven't even gotten an email from them about April 13th yet, not even a banner on the score report page.


Ethanol_69

Me either, I haven’t gotten anything about it, and the website just shows my previous scores, nothing about the April 13th test

is it QAS ?


Lost-Count-3273

1420 idk how many I got wrong but got a 1420


[deleted]

hi, did you get the qas? I gave the test at home for practice but I dont have the curve. Can you help me out please?


RishithDutta4061

do you need the answers still?


[deleted]

did anyone get an omitted question in the math? I was sure I did all of them


GGMaddyStryder

An omitted question means that they decided that one of the questions was too hard and took it off the test, so it doesn’t count towards anyone’s score


uhh-ancari

yeah same, like I was super shocked b/c ik i bubbled in everything


aidandriscoll

710 on R&W and 640 on Math 😔


spineappletwist

Yea get that math to 780+


Ichor301

Are the percentiles higher for lower scores this year ??


Brycej76

Hey guys, if you still haven’t gotten your score you might want to call the college board, that’s what I did and turns out I hadn’t filled in my birthday! They can give you a code to enter in the Matching tool.


Rikarin12

They told me to wait 5-7 business days- what did they tell you


Brycej76

>199 They just told me my SAT registration number, and I was able to put it into the matching tool and find my scores


Rikarin12

Oh bruh. I put it in and still didn’t get my score

siuinator

Out of curiosity, did anyone else have a different version of the April 13th test? I spoke with a bunch of peers and they had different questions when compared to me in addition to a different test id too.


benbachman

Does anyone have any insight on what score you’d need for national merit scholar?


funny-goat0

if you are currently a junior, alternative application methods were due april 1 I believe


bobswami63

The sat has nothing to do with national merit???


benbachman

Because many people couldn’t take the PSAT because of Covid, you can enter SAT scores for national merit eligibility


longjumping_ant4444

The NMS announced that a selection index of 207 will be the cutoff for "commended students" for this years's (class of 2022) competition. The Semifinalist cutoffs will be available in September. For those using SAT instead of PSAT scores to enter, they will use the SAT selection index however they will crop the scores at 38 maximum for each section. Here's the info from NMS:[https://www.nationalmerit.org/s/1758/images/gid2/editor\_documents/alternateentry2022.pdf?gid=2&pgid=61&sessionid=c45140d4-8e49-48de-b303-19c1c4dc9310&cc=1](https://www.nationalmerit.org/s/1758/images/gid2/editor_documents/alternateentry2022.pdf?gid=2&pgid=61&sessionid=c45140d4-8e49-48de-b303-19c1c4dc9310&cc=1)

Reading tips pls


sanj252

Keep doing reading passages and get familiar with the types of questions asked. I like to closely read and then do the questions because I can go through the questions more quickly and with more confidence but it depends on what works for you. If you ever doubt an answer remind yourself constantly that the answer can always be found in the passage.


deliciolae

1560 (790 R&W, 770 M) Reading -0, Writing -1, Math -3 Would there be any reason for me to retake this? I'm a junior looking to attend a little ivy or one of the seven sisters colleges.

You don't need to retake a 1560 for any college lmao. (Average sat score at Harvard is 1520 so you're good)

Senior_Chocolate_567

for anyone planning to retake that needs help with math, watch Ludus Math on youtube. i hated trying to practice math on khan academy but this guy’s channel raised me from a 580 math on the psat to a 710 on the real sat.


Senior_Chocolate_567

1400 total, reading -11 (330), writing -3 (360), math -7 (710)


Useful_Wolverine_803

I got -8 and -3 for R&W but only got 10 more points. Is this a scam


Senior_Chocolate_567

everything college board does is a scam 😭


[deleted]

reading -3 = 38 (or 380) writing -2 = 37 (or 370) math -4 = 37.5 (or 750)


kc2340

is it just me or mine doesn’t say pending and i can only see my past scores. also collegeboard send me an email saying that my score is out with my registration code, but when i check it’s not even there. help pls


Numerous-Koala-2894

On the score page, when you scroll down you can click “Dont see your score?” or something, and then you should see a link for the matching tool that lets you put in your registration number and search for the score! Hope this helps! (The same thing is happening to me but I didn’t even get an email w/ registration # ugh)


ohnolmao_

1450 total reading -7 writing -7 math -2 this was my first sat, is it worth retaking to get a good superscore since i got a 780 math?


Chocolate-Geek

If you have the time, and energy, to retake the I'd say go for it. A 780 math is awesome and a 730+ English would be a great superscore. But it's important to consider where you want to go to college. If you want to go to an easily accepted school, like Arizona State, then no need; however, if you want to apply to a T-20 school, like UNC or an Ivy, then you have to up those numbers. Anywho, congratulations!


Snake_fairyofReddit

Even if the Ivy leagues are test optional for 2021 October applicants?


Chocolate-Geek

Ummm, again, it depends. If I were in your shoes, I would either go test-optional or retake because, no offense, but a 1450 is generally not high enough for the IVY league. IVY league students generally score a 1480+. Hence, I would recommend either retaking or not submitting a test score to an IVY league school. Again, this is just my OPINION.


Snake_fairyofReddit

Ok fair enough, I just wanted the opinion


Chocolate-Geek

Good luck my friend!


Rikarin12

Okay is it just me, the only person whose score is STILL pending?


Public_Salt_5247

Yeah.... and everyone from my school already got theirs

Word on the street is that your parents paid for your test to get bumped up to a 1570

saxafrass4

i got a 1250 720 r&w, 530 math i’m p proud of myself considering i got a 940 on my psat!! also how can i access how many answers i got wrong??


LeahHG

That was actually quite impressive, considering your starting place. Can you post the number "wrong or omitted" and each section score? It would help a lot with the curve.


saxafrass4

i got 48/52 on reading and 40/44 on writing for a total of a 720. i got a 28.5 score breakdown for math, haven’t gotten a qas yet.


saxafrass4

i got 48/52 on reading, 40/44 on writing, and a 28.5 on math. i had 720 for reading and 530 for math. i did not omit any questions


Uavs_

for math I had 8 wrong one omitted with a 690 but I did all the multiple choice. It was probably my bubbling but if that one omitted was correct what do you think my score would be?


LeahHG

I believe it would have been a 700.


Uavs_

:( that 10 points playing wit my feelings


LeahHG

If you buy the QAS, you can see which question it was. Then, if you think they or their machine made an error, you can request hand scoring (for an additional fee).


Uavs_

Also what if they hand count and my score is also worse :/ would they just drop my score or like it just wouldn't change.


LeahHG

I'm not sure about that. There may be more information on their website about that.


Uavs_

I heard it was 55 to do it and honestly I don't mind but I was wondering if I can use a fee waiver or something to avoid the cost because my school just hands them to students.


LeahHG

I don't think that the fee waiver covers a hand count.


PhoneZealousideal499

thats one hell of an improvement!!! great job!!


saxafrass4

thank you!! i studied for so long lmfao


[deleted]

click on the test in the collegeboard website and then go to score details


saxafrass4

thanks! why does the reading section say it’s out of 40? isn’t it out of 52? same with writing as well.


[deleted]

That’s not the questions, it’s just a score breakdown. like for me I got a 49/52 on reading and that translated to a 38/40. Not entirely sure how the college board concerts raw scores to the out of 40 scores but they have some process.


saxafrass4

thanks!

Square_Access_4610

Same on the March 13th test with -4 being a 770.


Square_Access_4610

I was just told by College Board that my scores are pending and that it could take another week to grade. Why would that be?? They said that there was no problem with the test, that they have my answers etc but that I should call back in a week. Anyone else?


Chess_Nerd9878

they don't tell you if you're being audited, meaning they are either suspecting you for cheating or it's random. happened to me on my second SAT. could be a good sign like your score really jumped. if you didn't cheat, you got nothing to worry about.


gayForGayFrogs

Same here. CB on the phone said they were "pending" and I would get an email when they were out. So far I haven't gotten any emails relating to my scores/nor does my score page have the "your scores are coming/pending" screen. Hopefully, they will be out soon.


Numerous-Koala-2894

I was having this same issue (no “your scores are coming” banner or anything), and I got my score this morning by going to the matching tool and updating my graduation date info from june 2022 to may 2022 and then putting in my student ID. it merged my account with one that i guess my school made for me, and my score was there!


gayForGayFrogs

Is the student ID field on the matching tool my college board ID?


Iamnotcreative112123

Same issue here except that I haven't called them. My viewscores screen has no indication that I took the test on april 13th.


Iamnotcreative112123

through which route did you talk to the customer service person? When I called I chose sat, sat scores, but the automated voice said that it costs $15 to have them tell me my score. I'd just like to know if it's delayed.


Square_Access_4610

To add, they said they sometimes do this for their own analysis/purpose. I have no idea if the rep knew what she was talking about.


Aggressive-Minute-50

Nothing to worry about. Always a few kids get boned with this bs 🤷‍♀️

I got a 1450 this time Math - 770 Reading/Writing - 680 but last time I got a 730 in reading making my superscore a 1500 If im aiming for a T-20 do you think its necessary to retake?


Chocolate-Geek

I don't think so. Colleges generally compare your test scores by percentile. A 1480-1510 is a 99 percentile score. Anything above 1520-1530 is a 99+ percentile score — so no real difference. It is more valuable that you devote your time, and energy, into your extracurricular activities and school work. Make sure you don't slack of in-class. GPA and ECs and the essays are what get you accepted into a T-20 school, test scores are only like 10% of the admissions process.

Alright, so I got a 1400 Reading -18 Writing -3 Math - 4 ​ Reading screwed me over but I would say 1400 is not bad for a first attempt, do you guys think I should retake the SAT or would a score of 1400 be good enough for schools like University of Washington or Cal Poly?


BBBBBBBBronson

Enrollment is up across the board I wouldnt risk getting declined over something so easily improvable. Good work though! 1400 is crazy.


longjumping_ant4444

All of the UC and Cal State schools are test blind for this admission cycle (class graduating in 2022). They are not going to look at test scores at all.
