Score Conversion Wednesday, Oct 16 Test Form Raw Score (# of correct answers) Reading Test Score 47 38 45 35 48 46 44 Score conversions show how raw scores are converted into test scores, cross-test scores, and subscores IMPORTANT TO NOTE The section score for the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing section is calculated by adding the Reading Test score to the Writing and Language Test score and multiplying that figure by 10 The section score for the Math section is calculated by multiplying the Math Test score by 20 There is no advantage or disadvantage in taking any particular test form On every test, certain scores are not available, and are referred to as “score gaps.” Score gaps emerge as a result of a statistical process called equating in which the number of questions answered correctly and the difficulty of the questions are both considered when scoring across the different tests taken nationwide Although the College Board works to develop tests with the same level of difficulty, the questions in them differ and therefore some can be slightly easier or harder than others This can influence the placement of the score gaps throughout the scaled score range With equating, test scores are equivalent and valid, regardless of when students tested or the level of difficulty of the test they took 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 NOTE: Score conversions will not be available for the Saturday, October 19 test form or for schools participating in the test administration study or research group Writing and Language Test Score 38 37 36 36.5 34 38 32 35 33 32 31 30 29 29 28 28 27 27 26 26 26 25 25 24 24 23 23 22 22 21 21 20 20 20 19 19 18 18 17 17 16 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 Math Test Score 37 34 35.5 34.5 33.5 32.5 32 33 31.5 32 30.5 30 29.5 33 31 30 29 28 28 27 27 26 26 25 25 24 23 23 22 31 30 29.5 29 28.5 28.5 28 27.5 27.5 27 26.5 26.5 26 25.5 25 25 21 24.5 20 23.5 19 22.5 21 20 18 18 17 17 16 24 23 22.5 22 21.5 20.5 20 16 19.5 15 18 15 14 18.5 17 14 16.5 12 14 13 11 15.5 13 11 11.5 9.5 10 10.5 15 Answer Key Wednesday, Oct 16, Answer Key Reading Test SECTION Writing and Language Test SECTION A  C  B  A  C  B  D  C  D  B  C  10 12 A  12 11 13 14 15 16 17 C  A  B  D  D  B  18 C  20 A  22 D  19 21 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 B  A  B  A  C  C  D  A  D  C  31 D  33 B  32 A  34 C  36 D  35 37 38 39 40 41 42 A  C  B  C  B  A  C  43 D  45 A  44 46 47 B  11 13 14 15 A  A  25 26 27 28 29 30 C  A  B  12 14 2  A  B  A  11 13 C  D  A  D  C  D  A  B  B  C  B  A  40 D  42 D  B  C  D  B  D  17 1/5, .2  1/2, .5  Math Test – Calculator SECTION C  D  B  D  A  B  D  A  D  11 B  10 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 D  A  D  B  A  D  D  D  B  A  21 D  23 A  22 24 A  C  25 D  27 D  26 28 29 30 31 NOTE: For more detailed information   about scores, visit  psat.org/resources.  C  15/2, 7.5  16 C  B  A  15 D  D  B  C  8  12  110  1/3, .333  11 13 14 A  C  A  B  15 D  17 C  16 18 19 D  B  B  20 A  22 D  21 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 A  A  C  C  B  D  A  D  D  A  C  B  34 C  36 D  35 37 38 39 40 41 42 A  C  B  C  B  A  C  43 D  45 B  44 46 47 B  B  D  A  B  12 A  44 C  D  39 43 D  12 A  41 B  D  A  C  37 38 D  10 C  36 C  A  C  33 35 D  10 D  34 C  31 32 A  B  B  SECTION C  10 D  C  24 A  Math Test – No Calculator D  C  20 23 B  A  D  D  22 18 21 SECTION D  C  19 SECTION C  16 17 SECTION B  B  10 A  Writing and Language Test D  D  Reading Test D  Math Test – No Calculator B  Wednesday, Oct 16, Answer Key 11 13 14 15 A  C  25 16 1/2, .5  B  A  B  C  B  A  A  D  B  31 D  33 D  32 34 35 36 37 38 39 C  B  C  D  A  D  C  40 D  42 D  41 43 44 15 17 A  B  C  D  A  NOTE: For the Wednesday, Oct. 16, test form,   the test questions themselves do not.   NOTE: For schools participating in the test   administration study in fall 2019, correct answers   will not be provided. Correct answers will also not be   provided for the Saturday, Oct. 19, test form.  B  A  2  1/5, .2  Math Test – Calculator C  D  28 30 13 D  A  29 11 15/2, 7.5  26 27 D  14 A  C  24 A  12 20 23 C  A  C  D  22 A  D  C  18 21 B  10 D  C  19 D  D  16 17 2 SECTION B  C  D  D  D  10 11 12 13 B  A  D  A  D  A  B  A  14 D  16 D  15 17 18 19 B  D  B  A  20 D  22 C  21 23 24 25 26 27 A  D  D  A  C  D  28 12  30 110  29 31 1/3, .333 11
