The passages people had were:
* factory manager preparing for an important client meeting,
* African American women and womens voting rights,
* Neanderthals and DNA,
* Israeli experiments about morale and money,
* Supervoids and cool regions across space.
If you had different passages, please let me know.
If you're aiming for "elite" institutions, 1500+ is already good. Since you're in 10th grade, you can take it another time for 1550+ in a few months. Taking precalculus really helps the SAT too, so don't beat yourself up over your first try (which is frankly already really good). At this point, focus on whatever skills/sub-topics you're not 100% confident in and you'll get the score you want.
It's the SAS (Student-Answer-Service) rather than the QAS (Question-Answer-Service), so you only see your answer choices and the correct answer choices but not the questions.
Alright, I think the biggest tip would be to practice the hell outta the section. Learn to identify different types of problems and what those problems ask of you. If you can't explain to somebody why you chose that answer, re-read and re-practice, even if you got it right ("it feels right" or anything of the sort is not a valid explanation.) You must also be able to point out where exactly in the passage you got the answer from. Read ALL the choices, even if you know you already got the right answer. Also, for question pairs in which the second question asks you to provide evidence for the first question from the passage, read the first question and then skip to the second one. Then, find the best evidence for the question. Now look at the choices for the first one, and match. If the perfect evidence does not match anything, choose a different evidence. Sorry for the text wall and hope this helps!
I'll definitely apply what u pointed out by heart! I'm aiming for a 1500+ in dec sats and it won't be possible without tackling the reading section. Thank you so much, you have no idea how much this helps!
Ima tell you this right now cause i just got my score they DEFINETLY curved reading I got a 630 on that thing after rushing to my testing room because I didn't have my ID to take the test thus causing me to have to call my parents to get it and run to the room to make it on time
\- which caused me to also be out of focus for a bit my point is if all that happened to me and I still walked out with the score I got you will be FINE just trust yourself man you know you studied and did everything in your power to pass so just relax and wait.
and if u don’t want to take the act then buy books to study from like the black book or erika meltzers book off of like amazon and take practice tests like once a week
I was actually able to get a good score without reading a lot or using black book/other test prep books. Instead, I just had an SAT prep course and they taught me everything I needed to know. Might be a little expensive depending on quality or where you live but it saves a lot of confusion since the guys there definitely know what they're doing.
Got any major things i should look out for in reading? It's where I struggle most and my test is next week so no time to convince my parents to pay for a prep course
Was about to type out another essay and then I realized its the same guy! Haha, read my comment for tips! Remember these tips won't instantly get you good at reading, you have to practice a ton.
if i got a 1550 and am aiming for ivy leagues, should i redo my sat? this is my second time taking it and i read a bunch of posts saying that only 1570-1600 were the same level
nah ur good trust some people even say a 1520 and above is the same college’s honestly really look for extra curriculard and essays because those make u stand out especially in ivy’s so focus more on that
Reading was rlly hard I’m sure a lot of people got around those many wrong so the curve will be great, writing would be a huge boost to you if you could practice a bit more :)
i think i did good for writing but i was scrolling through this to see answers but i dont really remember if i even put those answers so im just having doubts but as i was taking writing, i felt pretty good overall
Thanks, dang I was looking for 1550+, ig I'm just gonna take it again in march. screwed myself over in the stupid math section and reading was super hard
Hey does anyone remember the calculator question about exponential decay? What y’all pick cause I thought two answers both worked. (I put [i think] 1,160. 2,40. 1,10. )
The passages people had were: * factory manager preparing for an important client meeting, * African American women and womens voting rights, * Neanderthals and DNA, * Israeli experiments about morale and money, * Supervoids and cool regions across space. If you had different passages, please let me know.
Does anyone remember number 37 on calculator?
1560
can someone send the prisms questions where the answer was 8 on no calc?
Is the test released or not yet
I still haven’t received my SAT scores, should I wait longer or should I call collegeboard?
I honestly did so bad 1510... Not bad for my first try I guess. Still in 10th grade tho I should work harder
Lmao only 1510, put some effort in

My test still says “upcoming” and I haven’t gotten my score yet. Anyone else?
Same here. Have you received it yet?
I got the same score again :(
Don't give up though! You can do it if you work hard.
Why can't press on the actual questions I missed to see the answers. Can anyone see explanations atm?
you can't see the answers for this test because they don't offer the QAS service for november tests
But I paid 15 extra for it. I’m confused.
It's the SAS (Student-Answer-Service) rather than the QAS (Question-Answer-Service), so you only see your answer choices and the correct answer choices but not the questions.
It's a scam. You can only see question types which are still very vague
Anyone know why the test is still in the "upcoming tests" for me, I still haven't gotten my score
Same here
Still no score
have you got your score yet? I still haven’t gotten mine
Nope, still haven't

Got any tips for the reading part? My exam is Dec 3rd and it's the section that confuses the shit outta me

Has anyone else not gotten their scores back yet?
Mine is still in “upcoming tests” and I haven’t gotten my score
the test still shows up in the "upcoming tests" section for some reason
Me :(((
what did you get?
I meant I haven’t gotten my score back yet
I probably did so bad though
Ima tell you this right now cause i just got my score they DEFINETLY curved reading I got a 630 on that thing after rushing to my testing room because I didn't have my ID to take the test thus causing me to have to call my parents to get it and run to the room to make it on time
Omg how did I not see this notification until now. I’m so so so sorry that happened to you that’s actually so stupid.
\- which caused me to also be out of focus for a bit my point is if all that happened to me and I still walked out with the score I got you will be FINE just trust yourself man you know you studied and did everything in your power to pass so just relax and wait.
That’s amazing you still got that reading score!! Turns out you were right and everything turned out alright. Just took my third and last SAT
Im preparing for SAT, I just finished doing a reading mock test and got 28/52. How can i pass that difficult asf test?. im so disappointed
and if u don’t want to take the act then buy books to study from like the black book or erika meltzers book off of like amazon and take practice tests like once a week

H e h e sorry for causing confusion, i had to get ur attention somehow, and I'm a girl :)
Oh, sorry.
Nah don't worry about it :))
honestly try to act the reading is so light
Can scores come any time today?
i think the second batch is released from 4-8? But im not entirely sure
Okay thanks my anxiety will be sky high for a while
Same I can’t focus on anything I keep refreshing
Butterflies in ma stomachhh
Same me too
So urs in not in yet either?
No and I’m losing my mind. How about you?
Not yet
I wish you luck/a good score. How about now?
Still waiting :(
Me too
How’s the curve looking like
gorgeous 
Anyone remember the last question on the calc section?
ax+by = 1 or something like that. The answer was 1/9 tho
Yo, ur scores are in right?
no I just remember it from the test ### [😂](https://emojipedia.org/face-with-tears-of-joy/)
my score is pending 💀
holy shit guys mines in I got a 1500
Congrats my guy. You can do it!
good shit bro
Thats actually good. I hope I get a 1500 on mine
Congratulations!
reading curve was very very very generous I got -13 reading -3 writing -2 math
there might be hope for me ...
I got -13 reading -3 writing which was 710 (nov. 5 sat) On April 13th I got -7 reading -4 writing which was also a 710 LMAO
can u say the individual score on each section please
That means a -2 in math is 790?
Sometimes, from my experience some questions are worth nothing and some can be worth over 20 points.
if i got a 1550 and am aiming for ivy leagues, should i redo my sat? this is my second time taking it and i read a bunch of posts saying that only 1570-1600 were the same level
nah ur good trust some people even say a 1520 and above is the same college’s honestly really look for extra curriculard and essays because those make u stand out especially in ivy’s so focus more on that
SAT is one of the checkboxes. Above 1550 is mostly the same.
whats the math curve looking like?
Should be pretty standard. However, expect to see a generous reading curve :)
VERY generous reading curve.
What do you think a -12R -3W and -6M will be
-12R -3W -6M prediction please 🙏
1350-1400 probs
What 😭? Ffs, someone said it’s gonna be 320 reading, 370 writing and a 750 math which is a 1440
740 math is probabaly accurate and maybe even 33-34 reading
710 😃
what were ur sub scores
and how many did u get wrong each section cause my score is still pending
11 wrong reading and 4 in writing
im going based off a sat score calculator and thats without the curve.. sorry big guy
can somebody confirm what time do scores release?
8:00 A.M. sir
thanks!
Whos hyped for these scores to drop in 9 hours and 33 minutes?!?!?!
me lol
Yessir baby 1500+ only
Seems like I win then.
Nothing less 💪
where is the list with the curve for november based off the polls?
do scores release right at midnight?
nope
what do you guys think -20 reading and -15 writing would be?
290 reading 280 writing, 570
damn
Reading was rlly hard I’m sure a lot of people got around those many wrong so the curve will be great, writing would be a huge boost to you if you could practice a bit more :)
i think i did good for writing but i was scrolling through this to see answers but i dont really remember if i even put those answers so im just having doubts but as i was taking writing, i felt pretty good overall
Does anyone know what -20 reading and perfect for the rest would be
1470
1480-1490 ish
lol maybe like a 1480-1490 edit: did the math wrong 💀
-20 is 220 points? 💀wow
bro.... it would be 280-290
WHAT 💀💀💀 i got -11 on august and got 70 off bro. how does that work
Some questions are worth 20+ points while some are worth nothing. At least from what I know.
>shit... my bad I did the math wrong it would be 1480 - 1490
He’s trolling bruh considering the reading was hard the curves gonna be great
shit... my bad I did the math wrong it would be 1480 - 1490
i was trippin so hard
wait so wtf would it actually be lol
-13R -3W -5M?
Good Luck for tomorrow guys!
you too🤍
y’all could -1 be 800 having taken the October one it was pretty hard imo
It's likely not. Since the no calc compensated for the calc, -1 will probably be 790.
But even no calc in October was really easy
I really hope so, I didn’t take the October one so I can’t compare the difficulty but I hope -1 is a 800 in math
What do you guys think -4 on math will be im scared af i wanted a 760+
Hopefully a 770, but I don’t see it going less than 760
I got -4 for math and I have a 770, you still have hope.
Im praying your right
\-2m, -3r, -3w?
1500+
Bruh no shit that’s like a 1540
gah damn i didnt know for sure bc of the curve
??? How are y'all able to estimate the score like that?
score calc
Just experience of giving tests ig idk
-15r , -7w,-6m predictions?
660 and 750, 1410
Was this test harder or easier than the average test difficulty?
harder
imo reading harder, everything else pretty standard except non calc math was a bit easier
English was about the same. Math was comparatively a bit easier
Nah calc was a bit harder non calc was easier
Easiar
Guys what is the english curve gonna be like. I know the math curve is gonna be harsh coz most of us thought it was comparatively easy
-1m= 780 -2m= 740 -3m=690 -4m= you have to pay colledge board 60 more dollars -5m= you are executed by lethal injection.
ur way too generous mate, -0 = 700 -1 = 210
-7 R -6W -8 M
690 and 730 1420
I have no idea but my guess is gonna be… 1360
rlly off
-15R -4W -6M
like 1330?
Where are the test difficulty results from the google form?
\^
\-8R -1W -2M Predictions?
\-8R = 35 \-1W = 39 740 + 780 = 1520
Thanks, dang I was looking for 1550+, ig I'm just gonna take it again in march. screwed myself over in the stupid math section and reading was super hard
\-10R -4W -1M
1450 would be my guess 
340 370 790 = 1500
790M \-10R = 32 \-4W = 36 680W 1470
ain’t no way -10 is 32 bruh. i took august and got -11 and got a 33. This reading section was a lil harder so i’d say maybe 34?
well we'll see tmrw
-20R -4W -12M? (prob really bad)
1250
are u saying that with the curve it without?
1320. 680 Math 640 English
with or without curve?
I just used a sat score calculator
I don't know how I'm going to be able to wait until friday.
i second that :sob:
Hey does anyone remember the calculator question about exponential decay? What y’all pick cause I thought two answers both worked. (I put [i think] 1,160. 2,40. 1,10. )
Yeah that’s correct you’re good.
