Test Preparation
1

<p>Ok. This is what I remembered...
English:
1. The first question about which is least acceptable.. - promoted a reputation
Don't remember much....
Math:
1. What type of function is y=f(x)? - I put constant
2. What is the third vertex of the triangle? - (m, m(square root of 3) )
3. What is the factor of x^2+5x-6? - I put (x-1)(x+6)
4. The reflection over y=x? - it was "D" where the graph stood vertically, becuse y=x is a reflection over the origin
5. The equation of the circle whose area is 4pi and center is at (2,6) - (x-2)^2 + (y-6)^2 = 4
6. What cannot be the product of the factor of 35 and 16? - the answer was 24
Reading:
1. What did the twin's sister do? - designer
2. Something about the age of the author in the twin passage - 43 or older
Science:
1. The one of the shell... - I put the c i think.. </p>

<p>Do u guys remember anything else that's not on here????? Please post !!!</p>

2

<p>Yeah I didn't get that one at all!!!! I put A, then B, but we had different versions so maybe that didn't help at all</p>

3

<p>hmmm, thought it was the factor of x^2-5x+6</p>

4

<p>Oh... umm I put the one with one going left infinity and another going right infinity.</p>

5

<p>what was the one that was like "what does 'foreign' mean?" i think the chices were unrelated, uncharacteristic, etc. it was the reading passage on the guy and his dad at the airport.</p>

6

<p>Oh my goodness!!!! I messed up on the one with y=f(x).. it's trignometric.. it was referring to the graph above..</p>

7

<p>I put uncharacteristic.. I believe...</p>

8

<p>science was AAAAHHHHHH! i dont think i did good at all on that part...i totally ran out of time and guessed on tons of it.</p>

9

<p>Yeah same exact story here!</p>

10

<p>the skin graphs were confusing, i didn't realize they were constant</p>

11

<p>yeh uncharacteristic was the only one that fit</p>

12

<p>science section is going to lower my score down incredibly</p>

13

<p>The answer is |x+b|is greater than or equal to 4 is (−∞,−4−b)∪ (4−b,∞ )</p>

14

<p>if it is "equal" it must have brackets....</p>

15

<p>what was that weird logic one preceding the x + b question?</p>

16

<p>Ugh I had the right answer for the 4-b one, and then changed it at the very end...........</p>

17

<p>How many can you miss on math and still get a 36?</p>

18

<p>was 4- b the pt in the middle or far right...o no</p>

19

<p>how does the company grade the sections?</p>

<p>does someone have like a scale of how many you can get wrong to achieve a certain score?</p>

<p>maybe a link to the site or something?</p>
