<p>^ Yea, it was parents... But it said not only did it provide entertainment for children, but adults as well... now the problem is... all adults are not parents, but all parents are adults. :p</p>
<p>Hm.</p>
<p>Can someone estimate what score I would get with:</p>
<p>-4 Math
-5, 1 Omit CR
-2 W (8-12 essay)</p>
<p>^ sorry that should be 8-10 essay</p>
<p>M: 700, 710
CR: 700 (I got 6 wrong, 1 omit and scored a 690 last time).
W: 720</p>
<p>I just want to reiterate that it had to be financial decisions, because the other choice was parents and parents weren't mentioned at all in the passage. If the choice was 'adults', there could be a fair argument, but parents weren't even in the passage.</p>
<p>For the drilling incident question, I don't know for sure but I myself put fortuitous. dictionary.com sez fortuitous is:</p>
<ol>
<li> happening or produced by chance; accidental: a fortuitous encounter.</li>
<li> lucky; fortunate: a series of fortuitous events that advanced her career.</li>
</ol>
<p>And the drilling incident fortunately/luckily happened to stop within 400 ft of the lake so its pristine-ness wouldn't be ruined.</p>

<p>Just wondering why people put vast ocean instead of the rock carved by wind choice. I put the rock choice because I figured it showed how strong and powerful the wind was. But then a vast ocean really shows you how small you are. So I don't know. I think I missed it.</p>
<p>Oh. But I did put both fortuitous and shrewd financial decisions. So that makes me feel better about probably missing the other question.</p>

<p>why base and not humble??</p>
<p>-<em>publicly denounced -> what was this one about?
-</em>humorous way of expressing anger? -> i believe it is appreciation
-*fundamental for simple -> i thought it was naive</p>
<p>Trust me, it was base.in fact humble is the worst choice.</p>
<p>appreciation? i don't remember it.</p>
<p>i put naive first but when i read the reference lines again fundametal seemed the best choice.</p>
<p>i think it was people's appreciation of snake in the second passage, for indians venerated them and americans used it as the symbol of flag </p>
<p>still, *publicly denounced -> what was this one about?</p>
<p>you are right. sorry
the humorous one was for another short passage.</p>
<p>in the rock passage the people publicly denounced...
it was question no 22</p>
<p>-> gashawnero, do u remember the question or other answer choices for publicly denounced one?</p>
