3月新SAT成绩公布，三方数据调查梳理

来源: 时间：2016-05-13 16:08:28

　　5月10日晚间美国大学理事会公布了3月份北美新SAT首场考试的成绩，成绩总得来说，很多家长和学生并不满意，下面我们来看这次考试出来的一些考试成绩和数据分析情况，来详细的了解一下。

　　首先我们看一张我们学生的成绩单，总分1480，阅读680分：

　　其次我们来了解一下3月新SAT成绩概况：

　　首先是数学部分未能考到满分。平常数学学的不错，数学也是强项的学生，在这次考试中几乎没有考到800满分的，考到750分就算高分了。主要原因在于，新SAT数学比旧SAT难出不少，难题的题量增加了一倍，如果考生还按照以前应对旧SAT数学考试的态度和投入，是考不出满分的。加大数学的备考力度是必须的。

　　其次阅读部分，能考到650分就算高分了，700分以上的考生可能一个没有。上面学员680分看来挺高了。大多数素质不错的考生的阅读成绩在550分至650分之间。原因可能有两条，一是对首场新SAT考试抱有试试看的态度。二是那些想考出阅读高分，并且从去年暑假就开始备考的学生，这类学生阅读分偏低的原因不是态度问题，而是根本就不明白美国大学理事会一再强调的批判性阅读到底为何物，或者就算知道了一些批判性思维的知识，但也不懂如何把批判性和依据性的阅读方法，与SAT考试的文章分析和解题分析有效的嫁接，形成一体化，做到正确的应用。我们在此强调，如果SAT阅读分在600分以下，是英语和词汇量不足所导致的；SAT阅读600分以上的提分方法，同英语和词汇量的关联性就会越来越小，主要靠的是批判性阅读在考试中的正确应用的方法是否到位。

　　最后作文方面，作文成绩对2017年美国名校的申请来说至关重要。这次作文成绩分普遍的不理想。除了考前练的少，在考试中写不完之外，主要问题还在于考生未能把批判性阅读和批判性写作做到一体化，而这是新SAT作文高分的必然要求。模板化的写作对新SAT作文来说，只能起到不及格的促进作用。在这次考试中，能考到16分以上及格分数线的考生都不多。

　　很多人会认为这次考试是改革后首场，考的不好也很正常，那么到底新SAT变难了呢，还是其他的原因呢，我们借助一些数据来分析。

　　美国Princeton Review的一个部门向其用户发送了邮件的问卷调查，样本为近1000名参加了2016年3月新SAT考试的考生。数据调差结果目前只反馈给了接受调查的用户（目测，因为样本数量，以及PR与CB千丝万缕的勾结，以及新SAT在市场上尚未站稳脚跟的状态等等原因，结果还不能CNN）。其调查的主要方面就是新SAT的难度——考试难度的学名叫“区分度”，可以拉开考生之间的差距——这是考试成绩是否值得参考的重要标准。

　　结果：

　　考试前：

　　55%的考生在参加完考试后认为新SAT难度不高（55%认为简单；38%认为困难；7%认为无法判断）

　　有近70%的考过老SAT考试经验的考生认为新SAT比老SAT简单（69%认为比老SAT简单；31%认为比老SAT更难）。

　　62%的考生认为新SAT的考试时间比老SAT考试的时间更加紧张。

　　出分后：

　　75%的考生反应自己的分数比预期更好

　　而60%的有老SAT经验的考生反应分数比老SAT更好。

　　研习了新SAT算分后，我们发现新SAT实际用更小的分数范围来体现区分度。

　　比如说，新SAT的1500分用官方的分数换算表换算，等同于老SAT的2160分，新SAT用100分来体现老SAT中240分的差距。

　　新 1500 = 老 2160

　　新 100分 = 老 240分

　　新SAT的阅读+语法的700分只能对应680分的老SAT阅读、语法平均分。另外，新SAT中700分的阅读+语法部分错题数量在13个左右，而老SAT中700分的阅读错题数量绝对不能超过10个。

　　新SAT得分700表示错了13 个，而老SAT得700分的话才错7个，新SAT阅读与语法错只错7个的话，妥妥的750分，能拿出来作为学霸炫耀的新SAT阅读+语法成绩应该在750分以上！

　　美国Kaplan也做了相应的数据调查，并向媒体公布了结果，原文如下：

　　Judging by a survey by Kaplan Test Prep, one of the largest testing preparation services in the country, students encountered less trouble than they expected.

　　Nearly 60% of students said the questions were straightforward and easy to follow, according to an email survey of more than 500 teens who took the new SAT. (Three hundred of the teens are enrolled in Kaplan Test Prep and 200 are not, according to Kaplan.) About half, 48%, said the test was about what they expected, 30% felt the test was more difficult than expected and 22% felt it was less difficult than they expected, the survey found.

　　Fifty-eight percent of the students said they found the length of the sections tiring, according to the survey. The College Board, in its own online survey of more than 8,000 students who took the test, said that students, by "a 6 to 1 margin," preferred the format of the new SAT over the previous version of the exam.

　　Forty-one percent felt the math section was more difficult than expected, according to the Kaplan survey. However, students did not seem wildly affected by not being able to use a calculator throughout the entire math section. (They can now use a calculator in only some sections of the math exam.) Fifty-six percent said they felt comfortable answering the math questions without a calculator, according to the survey.

　　When asked if the new SAT reflected what they have learned in high school, 16% answered "very much so," while 56% responded "somewhat," 23% said "not too much" and 5% responded "not at all."

　　In the College Board survey, 71% said the test reflected what they were learning in school, and 75% said the reading section was the same as or easier than expected. Eighty percent said the vocabulary words used on the test would be useful to them later in life, as compared to 55% who answered that way about last year's exam, the survey found.

　　Students may also may be hedging their bets by also taking the other college admissions exam, the ACT, the Kaplan survey found. Fifty-six percent of students taking the new SAT had either already taken the ACT or were planning to do so, while an additional 17% of students surveyed who had not previously planned to take the ACT said they were reconsidering that decision after taking the new SAT.
