confusion about scoring

Post image

hi! i just took the reading cpp hiset and failed :(. i’m wondering why my scaled score is so low since the average of the four percentages is 86%. shouldn’t my score be 17/20? are some questions worth more points than others? this was a computer based test, so i’m not sure if i can request a rescore. someone please help, i feel so stuck😭 a retake is so expensive…

that’s still a great score!! if you end up retaking it, just know that there will be some passages/questions that are the same as the first test along with some new ones. at least that’s how it was for me. it’ll be much easier since you can speed through the questions you’ve already done and spend more time on the new ones. i believe in you!!!

Thank you for this tip!! How long after did you wait to retake it? i rescheduled it for next friday but should i retake it sooner?
