[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD went up 330 points from sophomore year PSAT to SAT this year without intense studying or prep.[/quote] I'm confused by this. The PSAT and SAT aren't scored on the same scale. what do you mean?[/quote] Yes but theoretically a person that scores a 1200 on PSAT would score same on SAT on the same day. The difference is the cap 1520 vs 1600 not an issue except if you are in the top .01%. DD went from roughly 1100 to low 1400's between sophomore PSAT and SAT junior year.[/quote] +1 The PSAT and SAT are, actually, scored on the same scale, although the ceiling is different. There is no conversion to correlate PSAT with SAT. College Board set it up this way so that students would see "growth," or increase in score, between the time they take the PSAT fall of junior year and the time most take the SAT, spring of junior year and/or fall of senior year.[/quote]
