December SAT International Test Discussion

<p>*prosaic and nimble</p>

<p>My friend who took june sat told me it was the same as this dec. sat.</p>

<p>I put “unique character”, so i hope it’s correct
were shirk and embrace in the same option? anyone remembers the other options?</p>

<p>what was the other choices of center obsolesence?</p>

<p>@babo
attract newcomers</p>

<p>I didn’t bother to go through the whole thread so I hope this wasn’t brought up already.</p>

<p>For one of the Writing questions, it dealt with an animal having “piercing” teeth; “piercing” was used incorrectly, right?! (It’s really been bugging me)</p>

<p>edit 10char</p>

<p>@362951847</p>

<p>It was “one of”, because it referred to “lions”. Should have been “some of”
Piercing was fine.</p>

<p>@Adrenaline: It could not have been “some of”, because “mountain lions” refers to a single specie.</p>

<p>The only correction I can think of is if “mountain lions are” was corrected to “the mountain lion <em>is</em>”, ie. “The mountain lion is one of the most … species…”. However, IIRC, only “mountain lions” was underlined, and the word that followed was “are”, so no correction could have been made.</p>

<p>I need the answer to this question too…
“were shirk and embrace in the same option? anyone remembers the other options?”
haha thanks :]</p>

<p>Can the Montaigne section really be experimental? The reason I ask is that I think both the caravan and the black writer sections had eight sentence completions. Doesn’t that add up to too many?</p>

<p>I don’t remember that “shirk and embrace one”…
btw,I don’t think “prosaic and fluid” is right…should be the one that has 'nimble’in it,I suppose.</p>

<p>@Adrenaline: Do you mean the June Test in the US had the totally same questions as we did this past weekend?</p>

<p>@peach, or among the most _____
it was definitely “one of” that had the error, not no error.</p>

<p>@hilton, there were 5 for the caravan, 8 for black writer, and 6? for universities</p>

<p>@gatitaz, that’s exactly what he means</p>

<p>One of is wrong.
prosaic and fluid were not in the same option.
nimble is correct, but the first word doesn’t fit
anyone agrees on shirk? It bothers me a lot</p>

<p>I still think one of is not wrong…Don’t you say “They are one of the most powerful groups in this area.”? </p>

<p>Anyway…I’m still in the abyss of guessing which one is experimental…agrr</p>

<p>I now do recall shirk and embrace one…( was it not shun?) but I think it’s the embrace or its synonym that went with the second blank afore “opportunities blablabla”</p>

<p>The sections were announced

<p>LETS MAKE A LIST FOR THE QUESTIONS THAT WERE IN THE EXPERIMENTAL SECTION</p>

<p>I think shirk & embrace is correct
CR doesn’t have much left to explore
i’m hoping for a 10+ for my essay. i wrote one strong example and one very weak example. somehow i managed to finish two entire pages. hope the length helps
i’m pretty confident of my math. if you have any math question, you can ask me. i’m glad to help</p>

<p>This looks like ours, doesn’t that mean the 2nd one (which was the African book one) was experimental? … Crap. I was hoping it’d be Montaigne.</p>

<p>Was the experimental a reading or a writing section?
Because for the sections that do count, there are 3 CR’s and 2 W’s
I can’t remember anymore whether there were 4 CR’s on the SAT or 3 W’s</p>

<p>Nov.7 2010?..</p>

<p>Guys that one was from the november test. Not the december one that we just took.
Anyways, does anyone know how to find out/figure out the curve of the US June SAT then? Since its supposed to be the same curve that we get for the december intl test…</p>
