DECEMBER 2011 SAT Pre/Post Test Discussion

<p>Ignorance is bliss ;)</p>

<p>aww come on guys. It wouldn’t hurt you to e-mail them. :P</p>

<p>what was the one about the lava and water? I thought it was"the combination of lava and water"blah blah blah…i forget. and if it wasnt that one, could someone explain why? and does anyone remember the whole question and the excact answer choices verbatim??</p>

<p>Also, wat was the one about the paragraph improvement where it said like, “what is the best beginning to insert to senetence 2 to transition from sentence 1 to 2”(or something like that)??I know it was either “for example,” or “this explains why”?></p>

<p>Also, wat was the one about the gumballs?</p>

<p>It was lava combines with water, all the other choices had an incorrect subject/verb agreement.</p>

<p>dang i got that one wrong!! ok do u know the other ones? and also, do u think they’ll curve the writing section 1 question?</p>

<p>@ dwang21: I remember almost choosing “the combination of lava and water…” but it was wrong because after combination, it was a verb like “form” which doesn’t match plurality or singularity with combination. Or something like that. “lava combines with water” is correct. </p>

<p>@miceman: I think it was obvious. Calories obviously includes calories from fat. Anyways, I think that might have been on the experimental section so no worries there (hopefully)</p>

<p>@joepaterno23: the answer was A.</p>

<p>@miceman It’s just one question. It’s not going to kill you, and I’ve seen more ambiguous math questions than that.</p>

<p>One incorrrect math question is like 30 points… that’s a huge blow. :(</p>

<p>Is it “like” or “as”? I chose “as” but I don’t know…</p>

<p>damit, the SAT today was horrendous.
some freaking pretentious, self-righteous ****** kept blowing her damn nose every minute, lost my train of thought at LEAST 30 times. Freaking spoiled whore didn’t even really give a crap since she would always finish 5-10 minutes before time was up (obviously guessed on a number of them) and I know her from school, parents are rich as hell. WHY THE HELL DON’T THEY JUST PUT PEOPLE LIKE THAT IN OTHER ROOMS.Then some other idiots kept standing up to sharpen their pencils when the proctor effing said she had extra pencils that were pre-sharpened already. i hope they all burn in hell.</p>

<p>/end rant</p>

<p>sammyhammy,</p>

<p>I had a similar experience today. Girl next to me kept blowing her nose+ was working on a different section intentionally (ex: revising her essay during section 7). Do people usually report this kind of things? Should I have reported it?</p>

<p>Well, today, I had so much caffeine in my system that I could not stop jittering.</p>

<p>Got damn you guys complain way too much.</p>

<p>I forgot my calculator at home but I thought the math was really easy. I thought some of the writing questions were tricky (I put “as” for that person that asked). The passages were easy too. The vocab was…hard for me. Harder than any practice test I’ve taken but oh well.</p>

<p>@alicecake: same here. Some kids were cheating and they kept working on different sections. And they KEPT revising their essay (which is totally NOT fair). My proctor was inexperienced too. He sort of messed up the time breaks.</p>

<p>**** you spiffy. go burn in hell with that whore.</p>

<p>sammyhammy, </p>

<p>Please do respect everyone here by not using that kind of profanity.</p>

<p>@Psychoanalyze: Speaking of cheating, I’ve seen worse. (Like people using iphones inside the bathroom during breaks and looking up vocabs online and then lightly writing the answers on the back of the admission tickets). In the end, I think this is a matter of personal integrity and moral. Truly appalling :(</p>

<p>Was the marbles one x/yz??</p>

<p>no it was yz/x</p>
