Scanning and Analysis

Your answer sheet is scanned and the resulting file of answers is analyzed by our system. The system takes the circles that you filled in and calculates your raw score. Because there’s no penalty for guessing, your raw score is the number of questions you answered correctly.

Accuracy

We monitor the scanning accuracy of SAT answer sheets through several quality assurance checks, including alignment checks and double scanning of documents.

Here’s what you can do to make sure your answer sheet is scanned accurately:

Use a No. 2 pencil and a soft eraser. Do not use a pen or mechanical pencil.

Make sure you fill in the entire circle darkly and completely.

Conversion to Scaled Score

Your raw score is converted to a scaled score of 200 to 800 points, the score you see on your score report. We use a process that adjusts for slight differences in difficulty between various versions of the test (such as versions taken on different days).

We do this to make sure there’s no advantage in taking the test on a particular day. A score of 400, for instance, on one day’s test means the same thing as a 400 on a test taken on a different day — even though the questions are different.

INTRO: 

The author Paul Bogard builds an argument in his article “Let There Be Dark” to persuade his audience that natural darkness should be preserved. He clearly persuades his audience by indicating the importance of natural darkness and Bogard also emphasizes that the world consists of too much artificial light. Within his article, Bogard persuades his readers that too much artificial light is negative by discussing how disruptive artificial light is to humans by causing disease and sleep disorders. On the other hand, Bogard also appeals to the emotions of his readers by noting that inspiration for artists, philosophers, and star gazers was created by experiencing the true darkness of the night sky.

BODY SAMPLE: 

Paul Bogard appeals to his reader’s emotions by discussing how natural darkness provides inspiration to people over time. For example, the author mentions Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” was created from the inspiration of natural darkness. Additionally, he mentions how religion requires natural darkness in order to have a peaceful life, which some people would consider “invaluable.” In the article, he writes how the ideas that create inspiration are not as abundant nowadays. “In today’s crowded, louder, more fast-paced world, night’s darkness can provide solitude, quiet, and stillness, qualities increasingly in short supply.” Moreover, more natural darkness is required in order to help people become more inspired. The author truly wants his readers to recognize how important it is to have natural darkness. 

Conclusion: 

This argument made by the author in his article effectively persuades his audience that natural darkness should be preserved. Bogard also emphasizes that the world consists of too much artificial light. He clearly persuades his audience by indicating the importance of natural darkness. Artificial light negatively affects humans because of diseases and sleep disorders, which could be avoided if there was more true darkness. Although inspiration can be influenced by complete darkness, it is necessary to have some artificial light, but not too much. Therefore, Bogard makes it clear to his readers that true darkness is desired due to positive benefits it promotes.
