Then a computer will compare your answers with the correct answers and produce your raw score. You get one point for each correct answer. For each wrong answer, you lose one-fourth of a point, Questions you omit (and any for which you mark more than one answer) are not counted. This raw score is converted to a scaled score that is reported to you and to the colleges you specify. Worksheet 1. Finding Your Raw Test Score STEP 1: Table A lists the correct answers for all the questions on the Subject Test in Chemistry that is reproduced in this book. It also serves as a worksheet for you to calculate your raw score. + Compare your answers with those given in the table, + Puta check in the column marked “Right” if your answer is correct. + Puta check in the column marked “Wrong” if your answer is incorrect. + Leave both columns blank if you omitted the question.
