who takes it tomrrrow? i am anyone else?

22

@ssgupta which ones? I didn’t get the one with the graph asking for the year which showed the mean (or was it median?) of all the sales or whatever the graph showed. I think it was Q 15. in the 20 minute section, and was followed by the one with the quadratic equation.

23

Oh and by the way, everybody got two Writing Sections of 35 questions right? Which one do you think was the experimental? I think it must have been Section-5 because experimental usually comes after the actual one. And what did you guys right in the essay?

24

Sorry for the excessive number of posts, but did anyone else find the Passage about the calligraphy/artist incredibly tough? I mean, I got an 800 the last time around in CR. Not too sure this time though…

25

I have just done it. Its slightly easier than the normal practice tests I guess? Can any of you recall some questions from the test? I remember for one question from CR- The chinese artist, ‘what does cast mean?’ I chose stamp while my friend chose tinge. Anyone?

26

@verdant Can you recall some of the questions from the Chinese calligrapher’s passage?

27

I had 4 CRs, only one Writing.
Regarding the Graph, you had to pick the value which was in the middle vertically. 4 above and 4 below.

28

was this recycled?

29

hey guys i just had the test. i thought the CR was kinda tough, especially the one about athletes getting paid. but overall, i guess it was okay

30

oh and @Fairplay01‌ i chose tinge as the answer for the cast one

31

I got 4 Critical Reading sections

  1. Appreciating an Artist (w/ 8 SC)
  2. Echolocation (w/ 8 SC)
  3. Doodling and Calligraphy (w/ 5 SC)
  4. Playing Piano + Paying Athletes (w/ 6 SC)
32

I got the exact same thing. Which of those do you think was the experimental?

33

i’m thinking that the appreciating an artist was experimental no?

34

I think the first one was the experimental.

35

so the “appreciating the artist” right?

36

Probably. Since my friends say they have the Echolocation one.

37

Anyways, how many No errors do you guys think there was for the Sentence Errors?

38

I think it would one of those two CRs that came back to back (experimental).

I had 3-4. Don’t remember which one.

39

Hey guys. What did you write for your essay? What was your question about?

40

it was something like joy or something. i wrote about african kids lmao.
