- There was one writing question (can't remember it exactly) that had something like "them who are" underlined. Was this false, and should it have been replaced with "they who are"?
- I found the math section fairly easy; the only two questions I had difficulties with were the very last two. I forget the one, but the other went something like this: f(x) = -5, what is n is this case: f(n) > n. I honestly had no idea what the fuck this was supposed to mean, so I did C) 0. What about you guys??
- Correct
- y = -5 was a line. For every x value, y was -5. That meant x needed to be less than -5 for f(n) or y > n or x. Therefore, the answer was A or -8.
@bsdsj22 Ah man I was debating between -8 and 0… I should have left that question out. Thanks though!
@Inmert Yeah, the value of a right? And the means are equal? Yeah, well, when you do it algebraically, a cancels out, and I did try putting can’t be determined. But when you think, you’ll know that the value of a should be 20 so that it satisfies the mean value as 16.7 for both 10, a, 20, and 5, a, 25. 20 is the answer
@bsdsj22 The one on fossilization is “a state in which fossilization may occur”, because we are never told if everything that dies goes to bottom of the ocean to get covered by sediments and what-not. If you read the passage, you can see a small thing that says “for example”, which means that whatever follows i.e in the ocean is an EXAMPLE, not the norm.
CB recycling December’s SAT is very annoying. Some people memorised the doc and had an unfair advantage. A girl sitting by my side used to finish Math and CR sections ~8 minutes before time was called.
Hopefully CB changes this shit policy with new SAT.
@McKilla99 I put it couldn’t be determined. 10 20 20, 20 wouldn’t be the median it would be the mode.
Do any of you guys remember if the median question about two clubs A and B was a grid in or mcq? I think the answer was 5.
^ It was mc & answer ws 5.
Oh damn it!!! I put 3. I didn’t arrange the numbers and I took the values of Thursday. Ugh CB and it’s tricks.
@RoySAT the question is what the value of a should be so that their averages are equal
@McKilla99
The average (arithmetic mean) of 5,n, and 25 is equal to the average of 10,n, and 20. What is the value of n?
A. 5
B. 10
C. 20
D. 30
E. Could not be determinded.
(10+n+20)/3 = (5+n+25)/3
Denominators cancel each other
10+n+20 = 5+25+n
30+n = 30+n
Which basically is a Math error because both sides cancel out.
Plus, if you plugin ANY of the possibilities, the average would be the same.
@RoySAT
Personally, I jumped that question because this was the first time I saw a “Can’t be determined” answer, but this question was on the December 2015 SAT & most of them put down E as the answer.
@Learner12388 I also thought ‘couldn’t be determined’ would be sketchy so I solved the question twice.
I really don’t want to wait 17 days for my score.
Z = (p^2 + np)…
Damn it!! i got the “The girl on the bus Maria” under no Error… so -1 in every section for now…
Do u remember the question on octopuses?
It was the “comparable to” one which is idiomatically correct in the SAT
@bsdj22 i don’t remember that question…oh well
Do u remember the answer to the CR question about the train and stuff?. Walking is implied to be what in the final paragraph?

Hey guys I saw this from the previous page, would it be possible for you to elaborate on the question? I’m having trouble remembering any median question lol.
