<p>How did you feel doing the test? Expectations? Curves? </p>
<p>I personally think I did better than on my normal practice tests... but I skipped 2-3 questions...</p>
<p>If you were confident in your answers then I feel that you should be fine. Skipping 10 questions can get you an 800. </p>
<p>I skipped around that but I’m not very confident after that test. Didn’t study as much as I should have for it. :/</p>
<p>So Physics C doesn’t prepare you for this! =(</p>
<p>Bleh… Just got out of the testing room. I most likely ended up with a score in the 600’s because I ran out of time. I really need to go back and review the concepts thoroughly. Should I wait to see my score first, or cancel it and take the test again in January?</p>
<p>Just wait and see your scores. I thought the test was really hard and probably ended up somewhere in the 600’s too. Why isn’t anyone discussing answers?</p>
<p>Hmmm… But what if some of the schools I’m applying to don’t allow Score Choice? They would most likely see this score as well then…</p>
<p>Oh, and as for why no one’s discussing answers, it’s because the embargo hasn’t been lifted yet. It’s still around 9:45 here on the West Coast ;)</p>
<p>fledgling, i think i bombed this too (ran out of time with 10 questions left and ended up guessing “C” for all of them >.<). are you applying to colleges this year? i think most colleges take january scores but there’s a few that only take december. if we do decide to cancel it and send in january scores, would it look bad that our scores come in so long after the deadline?</p>
<p>Well, I don’t know. Luckily I’ve already taken a few other subject tests and did well on all of them, so the only school on my list that actually requires this test is MIT, and I already checked their website and saw that they accept January scores. So I’m lucky as far as that goes.</p>
<p>Alright, I’ve decided that I’ll cancel today’s score, though I’ll still be coming in to see what the correct answers actually were since I’m curious haha. I’ll definitely be making good use of my winter break before taking the test again in January…</p>
<p>Anyone did the cut-off lens question? When the lens is cut in half, what do you see?</p>
<p>When the lens is cut in half, you only see the top half of the object.</p>
<p>^ HAHAHAHA seriously?! I skipped that one… I feel stupid now :p</p>
<p>Lets start compiling a list of answers:</p>
<p>antimatter question: positron
water is boiling: upper most straight part
Index of refraction: sin 60 / 1.5
Given initial velocity, mass, and stopping time: 1, 2, and 3
Force x time = change in momentum
What led to the nuclear model: gold foil experiment
Throw ball a up and ball b down at same initial velocity. Whats the velocity of ball a: v (same as ball b)
Skydiver jumping off of a plane: potential energy > kinetic energy</p>
<p>Nope, you see the full object, though less bright.</p>
<p>what was the answer to the pulley question? was it 1.2 kg?</p>
<p>Dakilica, are you sure? why do you see the full object?</p>
<p>Do you guys agree with the rest of the answer I have compiled?</p>
<p>Other questions I agree on.
I’d like to add:
To increase D, you need to decrease theta and increase Vo (kicking a ball question).
The acceleration on the planet with 3r is 1/9 * g
There will be no induced Emf only if both the magnet and coil move in the same direction with same speed (in other cases, there will be iEmf)</p>

<p>wait, isn’t water boiling the upper flat fine?</p>
