<p>Mainly because vocab harder than orc. passages harder than oct. Curve > oct. (which was also generous. I thought I had a 67-680 and ended up with 710.)</p>
<p>uggh i hope so...that vocab really screwed me over</p>
<p>Yeah, it was so weird! In all my PSATs, ACT, AP Lang, and SAT, I haven't come across a word I don't know. But today I did. Curses!</p>
<p>I thought it was rather difficult as well. I didn't study any vocab (Damn procrastination; well, I had to focus on math more anyways), but I still thought it was harder than the few practice tests I've taken.</p>
<p>I didn't think the vocab was bad. It was easier than on the PSAT, at least!</p>
<p>i thought this vocab was hard. I had to guess on more then i had liked to have.</p>
<p>I also thought that the vocab was a hard. It was harder than the last test I took. But I thought the reading passages were fairly easy.</p>
<p>I thought the reading passages were about averagely hard.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember a vocab quesition that sound like.. Literally meaning "without care" then it says something about getting paid. since i take latin i put the answer sinecure. but i was not sure</p>
<p>I didn't have that question, but a sinecure is a job that pays but you don't have to do any work. So it sounds like you got it right :)</p>
<p>oh the one about the employes acting a certain way because the boss was upset? anyone remember?</p>
<p>Yeah, I had that question also, ach44. I put sinecure because it was the only one that I could find that had some sort of root that means "without."</p>
<p>thanks. did anyone have any CR sections about either a lawyer, marine person, or about baker baldwin?? it makes me happy that i took latin... for that one question haha</p>
<p>ach44</p>
<p>the question was something liek this:</p>
<p>literally meaning "Without care", ____ is a job that requires little effort but pays income. (or something like that)</p>
<p>answer choices were : singuere, and vocation and 3 others...</p>
<p>bannana, the employees was something and then conciliate.</p>
<p>I wish I had that "sinecure" problem. I use that word all the time. Eh. It could've been useful for once.</p>
<p>A job that requires little work but pays a lot is a sinecure.. i love that word lol</p>
<p>edit: oops adorevintage got there before me :) props</p>
<p>haha yeah, I knew that one too. It was in the practice College Board test for the PSAT of 2005. I've known it since then :p</p>
<p>Yes, the employees PROPITIATED their boss ie they appeased or placated him!</p>
<p>Yeah, 'cause they were sorry for the delay. Or something. You're right, propitiate, not conciliate.</p>
