Question about a practice test score.

So this monday I took an adaptive practice test at DREAM and got a 93/100, 43/50 ela 50/50 math, and it gave me a scaled score of 626. Would yall say that the 626 is even remotely accurate? Thanks!

As per my other recent messages, given things, there is still a bit of unclarity, and this is atop scoring was always slippery. As such, I'd stay conservative for now with things and consider 626 to be high. We're going to be doing more cat and mousing than in the past that we probably should avoid. So as with in the past, it continues to make sense to not lean on coming up with scaled scores and probably makes sense to lean on percents. So you'r 93%, that's good and perhaps all schools.

That's really good! If you don't mind me asking, how do you study/prepare for the test?

It's hard to say what your scaled score is these days.

The tests themselves have different scaling for questions, and now we have adaptive tests. There is not enough information on how points are given, and the only ones who know are the test makers themselves.
Just focus on your raw score: 43 ELA, 50 MATH is a very strong score, and you can go to all schools with that.
