<p>there were two or three questions on writing, reading, and math that were pretty unclear and debatable... what's up with that??? kinda weird.</p>
<p>No questions on math were debatable.Debatable are only people who are still coming up with your wrong answers and sill arguments. (distance to the line, etc.)</p>
<p>Maths and Writing sections were both easy (personally I think). Only CR section deserves our discussions</p>
<p>People say there’s only one right answer (which they are correct) but with the time restriciton for reading, it is difficult to thorougly see which choice is right and which is wrong, hence the ambiguity.</p>
<p>the math “point to line” question was ambiguous.</p>
<p>the writing “the life of bees” question and the “hummingbird” question were pretty unclear.</p>
<p>the reading “jeering vs. mocking the sheep” question and “criticize a behavior vs. explain a reaction” question were pretty unclear, as well</p>
<p>i dont think the hummingbird or point to line questions were unclear but i can see how life of bees, sheep, and explain a reaction would be unclear</p>
<p>what was the consensus for criticize a behavior / explain a reaction?</p>
<p>there was no consensus. </p>
<p>by the way, how was the hummingbird one unclear? what did you put?</p>
<p>the hummingbird question was comparing the muscular body of the hummingbird to the body of other birds
it was incorrectly compared to “other birds”
or something along those lines</p>
<p>did u put more or most</p>
<p>The math question about the point and line was not ambiguous; one must always take the shortest distance.</p>
<p>im pretty sure i put more
“most” sounded wrong i think but i barely remember the answers now</p>
<p>silverturtle, what did u put for the hummingbird question in the last section? that mentally killed me.</p>
<p>How was the humming bird one weird? You wouldn’t compare an aspect of a bird to a bird. </p>
<p>The Life of Bees one was idiomatic. You always talk about stories in the present tense.</p>
<p>onhcetum: i understand that… the weird part was this…</p>
<p>its body is the most muscular compared to that of any bird</p>
<p>vs.</p>
<p>its body is more muscular than that of any other bird</p>
<p>point to a line was definitely ambiguous</p>
<p>i was like ***?? when i read it.</p>
<p>i know i know, distance is like defined as the shortest distance… like a perpendicular
but did the actual diagram SAY that the two lines were in fact parallel? how could you tell? what if it wasn’t actually a 90 degree angle, but 91 degree angle? or even 89? (aren’t we trained to never trust diagrams since they aren’t drawn to scale?) then it would no longer be 4. the only distance you’re sure of is 5 for the hypotenuse, but then that wouldn’t fit the definition of a line since it clearly wasn’t the shortest distance.</p>
<p>omg lolol they censor what the f? oops my bad :P</p>
<p>so yeah anyway i thought that point to line math question was ridiculous.</p>
<p>so what part about the life of bees was wrong? some people are saying there was an idiomatic error but what phrase was the error?</p>
<p>I thought the one about the line and point was kind of weird.</p>
<p>I wanted to put a slope or something weird, but then I decided to go with the shortest distance. haha</p>
<p>I didn’t stumble upon any confusing questions in writing.</p>
<p>Now C</p>
<p>sorry, but if you know what does “distance of a point to a line” mean, than it’s not ambiguus. I dont know if you learn it at school in US, but we have it here and imo everyone in my class would consider it pretty simple.</p>
<p>I think there the diagram showed that the two lines were parallel (they were both perpendicular to a third line). </p>
<p>If anyone’s still unsure
