December SAT: Writing

<p>"were we to have" - so say we all. :)</p>

<p>^ NOOO, that's what I put and then I ERASED it!</p>

<p>How many "E" answers in sentence correction did everyone get? I got 2 (I think).</p>

<p>i got three, but one of them was incorrect</p>

<p>was the experimental the one with the improving paragraphs about predators - ant lions? or the one with the band in Mo-town and their decline in popularity or whatever.</p>

<p>i'm hoping it was the former.</p>

<p>the one that was real was the motown one.</p>

<p>haha my exp was on a boy/dad being self-reliant and getting a stove. that one sucked, the questions didnt make sense at all...
"Even the sunday paper and junk mail are put in the stove"
Correct it lol.</p>

<p>Echelon can you remember how that sentence completely looked like? I don't remember if I had that section or not.</p>

<p>it was a sentence in the paragraph correction, so unless you remember reading about a dad who liked to do everything the old fashioned way, you probably didnt have it.</p>

<p>"Were we to have" = definitely right. I take Latin and though I'm not uber, the linking verb to use when we have a situation that's not reality should be in the conditional subjunctive case. </p>

<p>Clay Aiken: "If I Was Invisible" SHOULD BE "If I Were Invisible"</p>

<p>If I was president == If I WERE president</p>

<p>i got only 3 E's for error ID. i'm pretty sure i got them all correct. october i got -5 because for some reason i rushed on improving paragraphs and got -3 there</p>

<p>I got 4 Es :/</p>

<p>Maybe you guys should focus less on the number of Es you got an on the actual questions...or maybe you can just count the # of E's at an eyeglance <em>_</em></p>

<p>yo guys what were your points for the essay question?</p>

<p>Mine were:</p>

<p>the role of women, homosexuality, and the role of america...all have preconcieced notions that need to change. Does it make sense, and what did u guys have?</p>

<p>I wrote about Walden and personal experience...I think homosexuality is sort of a touchy subject.</p>

<p>I said women also and made it kinda emotional also, and a book that I read, and racism against minorities. I was thinking of adding like personal experiences but oh I didn't think of them quickly enough.</p>

<p>I wrote about how technology changes our perceptions of things we thought were totally right, and then I talked about Crime and Punishment and how the protagonist has an epiphany of sorts...the effing proctor did not write what time the section ended so I just started writing like crazy and i finished with 8 minutes left (i never finish the essay on time)</p>

<p>i wrote about how our perspective of technology changed along history. I gave examples of the neolitic revolution when technology had a utilitarian use, i talked about copernico, colombus, emm and well modern technology as well I wrote both pages pretty happy about that</p>

<p>How are we certain that the Susan B Anthony/Motown was experimental? </p>

<p>Arghhh I did CRAP on that on but much better on the African one.</p>

<p>do any of yall remember the question about the crops that got destroyed by the storm when passing through the region. was when passing incorrect cuz thats wut i put?</p>
