December 1st SAT Discussion

<p>I put the one about individualism.</p>

<p>phew, thanks bhph11. Takes a load off my mind.
Uhoh Jane. :P</p>

<p>But maybe that was for a different question? Can’t remember.</p>

<p>yea confusion!</p>

<p>i got confusion too. i read the passage like three times after getting to that question and individualism is basically never mentioned, and it’s not AP lang where you have to interpret the stuff</p>

<p>I put individualism too! Mainly because there was a part where she said it reveals or something their deepest thoughts and I remember another part where she said Creole in a sentence and had the word “our” like 3 times italicized.</p>

<p>Ok so I had Writing Experimental. The passage-based question on the first one was about art and that the sense of taste is also a form of art. The second was about time passage and how the US came about with time zones. Which one was experimental???</p>

<p>@efeens44 Exactly what I did. Confusion doesn’t seem to fit at all, but it’s better than the other choices. Oh Collegeboard, you.</p>

<p>@Marie96 - Yes! I remember now…it’s definitely individualism! I’m almost positive. Really don’t think that confusion was the right answer.</p>

<p>Well damn. =[ Can you explain why?</p>

<p>what exactly was the question about with the individualism/confusion?</p>

<p>confusion fits because if she thinks in one language and its hidden then in turn it would cause confusion i can totally relate because after spanish class i find myself thinking in spanish</p>

<p>anyone who had one writing section- was that about e books or taste art?</p>

<p>Marie96’s explanation reminded me of why I chose that answer. And if you think about it, the whole passage was about how the Creole people should appreciate their own unique culture instead of suppressing it and adopting another nation’s.</p>

<p>i had ebooks.</p>

<p>Hmmm. I thought that confusion was a meh answer just because it said something about language elucidating their thoughts. Or something to that effect. Basically, I picked it because I couldn’t find support for individualism, which was my second pick. Going to kick myself if I get this wrong.</p>

<p>My foot is ready.</p>

<p>@thnkprnctn-I had e-books, and I do not recall a “taste art” section. That must be the experimental writing.</p>

<p>I thought that individualism referred to each individual Creole-speaker—not the group as an “individual” culture.</p>

<p>it was confusion, the direct quote goes something like “we spoke in creole, our deepest thoughts were in creole, and then we turned around and held creole in utter contempt” or something like that. choosing individualism would contradict the point of the entire passage because it was trying to highlight an entire CULTURE. confusion was the only one that fit. im positive.</p>

<p>anyone remember some writing (idenifying errors) question that goes like</p>

<p>“Although we went to the rink together Mary(?) stayed two hours longer than I did for a new routine”</p>

<p>was there any error in this?</p>
