Quick Question...

Post by sgt101st » Tue Jun 12, 2012 1:00 am

A little birdie told me a while back that the experimental section is used as a factor for calculating the curve. Does anyone know if this is true?

No. Your curve is already set. It was set when earlier test administrations took your real sections as their experimentals.

Your experimentals will be real sections on future tests. They'll take the raw score that you guys got on them, figure out the median, and set the curve so that the median adjusted score is 151.

People saying that make me really nervous because I thought the RC experimental was really, really easy and now I'm second guessing myself about the rest of the test. Haha
