were the four no errors on the same page? and is “carved out of” an idiom error

I got four math sections, I did not read the Newton one.

@MojoShab

I believe #18 was on the first page and was no error. The other 3 I think was on the second. There is a controversial question (#29)

Either no error or “compared to”

section18

  1. 0.4y+0.6y=10 , 0.5y=…5

What’s the answer for the Danny question? Irritated? Anyone can remember the reading answers?

@bsdsj22

The table with number of boys and girls for the twin
2boys
1boy1girl
2girls…blabla

@DeathWing

Danny talking to the mother was presumptuous
Danny was playful when he needed to leave

@nahoho

Yeah that one was easy :stuck_out_tongue:
Just multiply and add

@BCSP10 Recycled from November 2015 or other years? US or international? Thanks so much!

@thewindisblowing

Time passage: emphasize the previous point

@bsdsj22 yes, I chose that answer, too.
Thank u for remembering :smiley:

@thewindwasblowing

I talked to Nov SAT people. They said:

Danny was playful
Danny made an excuse
reality vs. fantasy
Men are implied to dissect social dynamics

I’m predicting

710 CR (6 wrong)
800 M (1 wrong)
800/780 W (0/1 mc wrong - the “compared to” 10/11 essay)

Hopefully 11 essay or 0 mc wrong

@thewindisblowing

Did you get “compared to” as error or No error

@bsdsj22 that’s such an impressive score
I got “compared to” as error. What did the people in US say about this question?
And the “but” or “however” in improving paragraph
There’s preposition question about “familiar”. Did you choose “with” or “to”?

@thewindisblowing

It seems that most people got “compared to” as the error… but dsi411 says he remembers getting “No Error”. He got an 800 with -0 MC

Not sure what the answer is.

@thewindisblowing

if you can jog my memory about the “but” and the “however” I can answer it

It is familiar with.

@bsdsj22 it’s the question about “But the others criticize” or “However, the other critics say…”
Maybe “compared to” is a hard question and many people get it wrong, including me

@thewindisblowing

It is But because “other critics” is wrong.
