Results from previous SAT Chemistry tests appear to indicate that the
conversion of raw scores to scaled scores GENERALLY follows this pattern:
Note that this scale provides only a general idea of what a raw score may
translate into on a scaled score range of 800–200. Scaling on every test is usually
slightly different. Some students who have taken the SAT Subject Test in
Chemistry after using this book have reported that they have scored slightly higher
on the SAT test than on the practice tests in this book. They all reported that
preparing well for the test paid off in a better score!
DIAGNOSING YOUR NEEDS
This section will help you to diagnose your need to review the various categories
tested by the SAT Subject Test in Chemistry.
After taking the diagnostic test, check your answers against the correct ones.
Then fill in the chart below. In the space under each question number, place a
check (✓) if you answered that question correctly.
Next, total the checks for each section and insert the number in the
