[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This does not make sense to me. How does 770 equate to a 34? A 770 is the equivalent to a 35 or possibly even a 36.[/quote] I imagine the people at CalTech have done the math on this one.[/quote] That is an interesting question because CalTech is slightly misaligned relative to the actual concordance tables. I suspect that it is because they detect a bigger difference at a 33. If they want to keep the buckets balanced they needed to push 770 down to create two 30 point buckets for the SAT side. They stated that the differences are small so I doubt bucket A or bucket B will matter at all.their goal is to get more 750s to apply, not hurt kids with 770.[/quote]
