****JANUARY 2015 SAT THREAD (INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS).****

@ny1002ny‌ I didn’t pick that option. I don’t remember my answer so can you put down all the other options as well.

@ny1002ny‌ Yep. Delete it from the passage.

Delete it. It made no sense. Even if it did, they didn’t follow it up with anything.

Guys, was the writing question with the writers (About making movie adaptations of books) No error or (B) to be?

@derrotebaron no error

@ny1002ny‌ Yes! Thank you!

@asiankid88‌ I don’t think so… She talks about him like he is an inspirational person, “exemplary skill” sounds more powerful but you may have a point, gotta ask someone else.

@DerRoteBaron‌ Can you state the full sentence of the adaption of books SE question?

@oz4nss I think he was talking about another question, where the lines read “meaty hands painted a frail flower” That was contrast. Although I chose personification :frowning:

What is the expected curve for this test? I am a novice regarding this. How many deductions result in below 700 in each?

@ny1002ny‌ Yup, that sentence was irrelevant and useless…

@MarcoReus‌ I’m not 100% sure, but in CR you can make around 5-7 mistakes and still pull off a 700. Math is a bit more harsh, and Writing depends on your essay quite a bit.

What was the question to which overwrought was the answer?

The essay! Thanks for reminding me. Which examples did everyone come up with? I went Gatsby and Jobs.

@DerRoteBaron‌ Ouch, sorry.

By the way, that wasn’t personification… I selected A for answer but I don’t remember the word…

I went with metaphor, I regretted it the moment the section ended.

@MarcoReus‌ I came up with Ronaldo and a fictional character. I also added 2 quotes 1 at the beginning and 1 at the end. I filled the whole 2 pages with my essay.

choices were metaphor, analogy, personification and contrast. i omitted it anyways

@MarcoReus‌ Yeah, I remember a “metaphor”, that must be that.

@ny1002ny‌ Now i remember it, it was metaphor. At least I chose it.

@oz4nss‌ Yeah, I know, It was down to contrast vs personification and I backed the losing side…
