Can anyone estimate...

Can anyone estimate the curve below a 170 score? I'm not quite at that level yet and was wondering what a -10 curve would mean for a score of 160.

If it's -10, then I believe you can miss just over 20 and still get a 160.

I think on a normal -10/-11 curve, it is usually about -24/-25/-26 for a 160.

91/101 or 90/100 usually constitutes a 170 with variations on harder exams (see December '09)

For a 160, -25 is normally pushing it, but in the low 20s. You really want to be in the point a question range which begins at 164. That's where you start to emerge as leader of the pack.

is it more probable that it will be a -10 or a -11?
