<p>The sand one was the answer with the colon (I think that was leaving it), and pluto I don’t remember.</p>
<p>The one about other costs I changed something to, “to include”.</p>
<p>And about the one with the organic plants, I was debating about putting “than do”, but then I decided against it and I think I put no error.</p>
<p>i def got no error for lawrence…but does anyone remember the exact question for plant one?
because i know i spotted a really obvious mistake in there</p>
<p>For the car one, I said something along the lines of</p>
<p>When you are calculating the expenses,_____________</p>
<p>The _____ was a choice between “to include the costs of x, y, and z”
vs. “don’t forget about x y z”</p>
<p>I said, " to include the costs of…"
but I wasn’t completley sure.</p>
<p>Also for the sand one, did people choose the answer with the colon?</p>
<p>“include the cost of” is what I put. Seemed like it would work best.</p>
<p>@spicy, I got both of your answers</p>
<p>What was this “sand” question? I can’t remember it.</p>
<p>can someone put up a consolidated list of answers for this section like the one in the critical reading section?</p>
<p>I also had the photography prompt…
I opted for the negative opinion and used the examples:
-the manipulation on photography by the white supremacists in the 50s
&
-the lies fed to America through propaganda for enlisting in the Vietnam war
Are both examples valid? Will I get a low score for not including a historical figure?!
(my essay was maybe two short sentences away from filling the two pages!)</p>
<p>Does anybody remember the question that went
“The national forest park - an acknowledged as a treasure -…” </p>
<p>I Picked A for this answer. did I get this right?</p>
<p>Joizey shaww</p>
<p>The plant question did not have a parallism error. According the The Princeton Review Grammar Smart book, if a you have a chain of verbs, you can do one of the following:</p>
<p>1) … to eat, to live and to sing
OR
2) … to eat, live and sing</p>
<p>You can drop the to in all verbs after the first in a linkage of verbs.</p>
<p>I hated the photography essay prompt. I could only think of one example of photos during the Great Depression and made up some general stuff about photos at special occasions and stuff.</p>
<p>I thought the essay prompts were supposed to be more general? I took two practice essays and both were very general, asking about courage and other human characteristics.</p>
<p>^Yeah, they made sure to throw a curveball this SAT as both prompts were extremely unusual for the SAT (reality television and photographs); they probably wanted to make it a bit harder for people who had prepared for more general topics.</p>
<p>The reality TV one was incredibly simple. Jersey Shore ftw</p>
<p>For the essay I talked about how the Biggest Loser is actually harmful ( i also used the jersey shore) but please tell me if this makes any sense, cuz im panicking </p>
<p>I said by watching the Biggest loser, many people who are overweight set high goals to lose weight as those who successfully do on the show. Many times people will fail to attain these high goals and feel even worse by seeing the success of others on the competition. I then compared it to teenagers that look at models in magazines and hope to be as skinny as them, often this leads to depression or sadness when they can’t become “just like them”. Then i compared it back to the Biggest Loser and how people that fail to lose weight will have similar feelings. Does this make any sense??? -_-</p>
<p>But isn’t the purpose of the essay to just show how well you can write? I thought it was supposed to be general so everyone who took it, no matter what background, could think of examples. I’m not a huge photography fan, so I went for the “it represents reality” instead of the artistic expression or whatever.</p>
<p>@NeedsHelp1212, That’s a very usable and appropriate example. Don’t Panic.</p>
<p>thanks fisawalab; at least its a little unique. I only had two examples and it seems like Jersey Shore is the cliche one.</p>
<p>will i get a zero because i didnt write about modern reality tv?</p>
<p>no i’m certain that it said to include the COST of insurance etc
that’s why i didn’t pick that one :
i think i chose the one with money in it</p>
