The performance of this section is not included as part of your score; however, it is a section that will be included in a FUTURE test. In theory, you could RE-take the test and see the experimental section. How long do you think they wait before they include the experimental section?
Six unique tests are issued each year (with nine sections - not including the essay, on each), so 54 experimental sections must be created each year for the future test. Still following me - huh? That's also not likely. I think 85% of the test is recycled material + 15% from experimental sections. At any rate all of the test has been administered at some prior time. Still with me?
To save time, money and maintain statistical consistency, I think they change one section of the test at a time (in lieu of randomly picking from a broad question pool). I would not be surprised if the "test bank" had 20 to 30 tests that cycle through every five years. Want to know all the answers for the May test? Just pull the exam from May, 2006 and use last year's experimental section...?
There should be some Russian crime syndicate that has a copy of the 2006 tests. Okay, 4 fingers Yuri - where's the test?How can you hack the SAT?
I've seen the tests from Oct 05 to the most recent, and nothing has been repeated.
