No, that's definitely not correct at all. I know Blizzard gave some vague examples back during beta, and I seem to remember something like 200 or 300 resist being equivalent to 50% or 75% resistance against an equivalent level spell or spellcaster.

Okay, I found Blizzard's not very useful resistances page:

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/basi...ances.html

Code:
Resistance Score &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 50 &nbsp; &nbsp;100 &nbsp; 150 &nbsp; 200 &nbsp; 250 

Chance to Resist Spell &nbsp; 15% &nbsp; 30% &nbsp; 45% &nbsp; 60% &nbsp; 75%

Code:
Resistance Score &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 50 &nbsp; 100 &nbsp; 150 &nbsp; 200 &nbsp; 250 

Chance to Resist Spell &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;0% &nbsp; 1% &nbsp; 1% &nbsp; 11% &nbsp; 25% 

Chance to Resist 100% Damage &nbsp;0% &nbsp; 1% &nbsp; 1% &nbsp; 11% &nbsp; 25% 

Chance to Resist 75% Damage &nbsp; 2% &nbsp; 6% &nbsp; 18% &nbsp; 34% &nbsp; 55% 

Chance to Resist 50% Damage &nbsp; 11% &nbsp;24% &nbsp; 48% &nbsp; 40% &nbsp;16% 

Chance to Resist 25% Damage &nbsp; 33% &nbsp;49% &nbsp; 26% &nbsp; 14% &nbsp;3% 

Chance to Take Full Damage &nbsp; &nbsp;54% &nbsp; 20% &nbsp; 7% &nbsp; 1% &nbsp; 1%
