I received a pleasant suprise this morning when I took the CBSSA. Somehow my score has jumped 30 points from when I took the CBSE. I've only been studying for a week, so I don't think my score could have improved that much. How should I interpret this? Does the CBSSA overestimate? CBSE underestimate? Or maybe I was just a really good guesser today? Anyone have any experience with either of these assessments?
