<p>I’m sticking with my answer, but I have to say, this explanation:
is pretty convincing. If I had thought about it that way during the test, I probably would have put no error.</p>

<p>^Your explanation only takes into account one definition of the auxiliary verb “do;” in the actual sentence, it has a different function than that sense would.</p>
<p>This is probably wrong, but for the organic plant question I said the error was the first underlined part (“To …”) because the sentence didn’t feel correct without something in front of it, like “In order to.”</p>
<p>haha I asked silverturtle</p>
<p>can someone help me decide what my essay would get?</p>
<p>solid opening.</p>
<p>first reason: kind of used sophistic statistics depicting the behavioral changes from watching so-called “reality-depicting” programs, such as MTV’s “Jersey Shore” and “The Real World”. as well as how the adolescent population has grown to using more illegal substances and underaged use of alcohol and cigarettes due to the realities portrayed in these shows. good vocab.</p>
<p>second reason: personal example, (though clearly bsed), how my friend holden had gone on to use marijuana frequently, turned from a solid A student to a rehab-instituted lifestyle due to the fallacies and atrocities that have influenced him from watching such programs. good use of metaphor, vocab, strong emotion sensed in the writing.</p>
<p>conclusion: reiteration of ideas, topic, stance, etc. the usual.</p>
<p>eh? :/</p>
<p>@dj04x7</p>
<p>I think you will fare well on the essay I assume the graders will be slightly more forgiving this time around.</p>
<p>Could someone post the full sentence with the “support between employees”?</p>
<p>Can someone just say what they got for the lemon one first question “new car different from old cars” ? Is it delete it or something else. Please help. And please find the link of the original passage if possible!!! Thanks.</p>
<p>@ivy, cant get you the full sentence, but 100 percent it was supposed to be support AMONG employees since its more than three people.</p>
<p>@andrew</p>
<p>I feel like there was another error though, as I am almost positive that the part following “support between” was “who/that has helped him,” which would be another error.</p>
<p>I’m probably clinging to false hope… luckily I feel comfortable about my essay. Could a -1 mc and 10+ essay make for an 800?</p>
<p>Can someone just answer my question about the lemon one? Delete or change??? Simple question.</p>
<p>@andrew</p>
<p>Sorry I did not see that earlier. I believe it was delete.</p>
<p>It was delete.</p>
<p>Would I get points off if I started on the second page and accidentally continued to the first page. </p>
<p>I wrote five paragraphs and my essay was well written (etc.)…</p>
<p>To everyone about the Madagascar section:</p>
<p>It’s ‘having separated’…causality is totally irrelevant in the sentence…WE could care less about what made Madagascar separate from Africa 260 million years ago.</p>
<p>About the idiom ‘unbeknownst to…’? Or are those two totally different things??</p>
<p>@newton, probably not. Collegeboard is taking a lot of shiiiit right now for making biased essay topics and stuff. They are probably making the essay grading more generous to save themselves…</p>
<p>Jusft found this: [SAT</a> question on reality TV stirs controversy - The Answer Sheet - The Washington Post](<a href=“http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/post/sat-question-on-reality-tv-stirs-controversy/2011/03/15/ABjNyCY_blog.html]SAT”>http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/post/sat-question-on-reality-tv-stirs-controversy/2011/03/15/ABjNyCY_blog.html)</p>
<p>^will that affect scoring at all?</p>
<p>^^Although I think the prompt was unusual, I’m skeptical as to whether knowing a lot about reality TV would have really helped.</p>
<p>The more I think about how terrible my essay was, the more I realize I spent 25 minutes figuring out what reality tv really is without actually taking a side.</p>
<p>I mostly discussed the objectivity of media, using one example from the Progressive Era and relating it to reality tv. I concluded by saying viewers who watch reality tv would develop a skewed perception of the world, but I can’t remember if I explicitly stated that it was harmful. I don’t even remember what I wrote in the intro. The essay was only four paragraphs and 1 1/3 pages long.</p>
<p>Am I screwed? ;_;</p>
