<p>Yes, yes, and yes.
It’s the subjunctive “were” when used in speculations/situations where you’re hypothetically speaking. I forgot the exact rule, but yeah.</p>
<p>On the Error Identification part in the 35-question Writing Section, about how many “No Errors” did people get? Anyone remember? I vaguely remember getting 3 E’s.</p>
<p>“a defender of gate theory would most likely argue that the problem of ~ lies not in the theory but in
*—Scientific technology is inadequate.”</p>
<p>…lies not in theory but in diagnosis that cannot explain the patients’ pains.
That’s not the exact wording of my answer, but that was my choice.</p>

The answer choice was modern technology was not adequate enough find the cause of the pain. Basically what you said was that the answer you picked was wrong, but at the same time your answer was right.</p>
<p>Derp. Not lies, I merely worded it differently.</p>
<p>Definitely not conscientious. It was self-satisfied because that specific paragraph’s tone is how proud she is of her abilities to imitate her grandmother and it was asking for her attitude/tone. I got the same for all those other things though.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember, in the writing section, a sentence about the Chunnel in Europe? I said that “one of the most” was wrong because I thought “one of the more” might be correct. I kind of took a chance with that one.</p>

<p>I didn’t follow this. I didn’t word my post the best way, but basically, the answer I chose was: the new theory wasn’t the problem, but doctors’ inability to diagnose the cause of certain pains. I still believe it’s right.</p>
<p>The passage described how the theory can explain how supposedly painful stimuli isn’t necessarily perceived as pain by the patient, but it can’t yet explain what stimuli caused certain patients’ pain. Therefore, I inferred that doctors are unable to accurately diagnose these pains. I didn’t see how modern technology was strongly related to the passage. I can’t even remember if it was mentioned at all, so I must’ve considered it a minor point.</p>
