<p>Hardest for me were Reading and Science. Then English and Math. I’m usually pretty good at the English section, but I bombed it today…</p>

<p>Yea writing is hardest by far for me to break30 in I hope it wasn’t sympethetic and critical wasn’t there another awnser that was somthing like the dad was angry</p>

<p>Wisco was the point about your friend true?</p>

<p>Pure water freezes at 4C? Aw man…that means I learned nothing in Chem. So impure water freezes at 0?</p>

<p>@UVA well there was a quote at the end of the paragraph that effectively showed how he was critical of her, but there was no anger.</p>

<p>No it was not true, but I thought adding something like that makes the argument more emotional. I didn’t mean to offend anyone, and if I did I am truly sorry</p>

<p>Since when does water freeze @ 4 degrees Celsius?</p>

<p>Yea that’s what I’m wondering</p>

<p>Oh s***, it’s density is highest at 4 degrees C I think it is. Well there goes my science section.</p>

<p>Also screwed that up on science…thanks chem II, hahahaha</p>

<p>Whew. Then I got it right. But…I still bombed it…</p>

<p>Part of me feels like I bombed it because I have a tendency to get low scores on science…(26, 28)
But I’ve gotten a 33 on a practice test before when I thought it was reallllyyy easy and that’s how I felt for this one</p>

<p>Almost all of these questions (maybe 37 or 38/40) were graph/table based, which was nice, as opposed to when the answers are in the passage.</p>

<p>What’d you guys put for the question in english section with “recognizing from photographs”?
It seemed like this sentence did not work grammatically with any of the solutions?</p>

<p>I put “that I recognized”</p>

<p>none of them made sense, but the rest of them made even less sense</p>

<p>yeah for that first on on science i put “Cannot tell from the information given”</p>

<p>Can someone explain the math question with the answer 45 degrees?</p>

<p>Was it the one with like most of it shaded?</p>

<p>Also, for the science question where someone said the answer was 11%</p>

<p>I put 89%. At 11%, the line went up a lot. </p>

<p>Also, in English</p>

<p>Was it "grandparents’ " or "grandparent’s "?</p>

<p>I put that too</p>

<p>Yeah, thank God there were no passages for Sci.</p>

<p>yeah that one made no sense…</p>

<p>ok i ran out of time on science so i guessed for this one:
it was the last one on the flare A, B, C, D passage.</p>

<p>something like the relationshp between size-particle distribution or something.
was it B?</p>
