January Critical Reading SAT Thread

<p>i dont think so. I had it and 4 math sections.</p>

<p>Thats what I am wondering...I had</p>

<p>Comic Book, Hispanic Girl, Map, Venus, Eastern Medicine, Slang (Cool), Guy using self-check out technology... im trying to remember a few others...but I cant remember.</p>

<p>I had all of those you listed above as well.
I know I definately had just 3 maths, and I can't remember if I had 2 or 3 writings. =(</p>

<p>I had comic book, hispanic, map, venus, slang.</p>

<p>I had 3 maths, 2 writing + essay and 4 CR's... I can't determine which one of mine is the experimental because the medicine one was with the map passage, and almost everyone had the map passage.</p>

<p>Lets figure out the rest of them...even if they were 2 question passages.</p>

<p>Comic Book, Hispanic Girl, Map, Venus, Eastern Medicine, Slang (Cool), Guy using self-check out technology, Shakespeare into movies</p>

<p>there was a 2question one about a rocking horse</p>

<p>What about the one where the first sentence was about the author writing a book about herself?</p>

<p>Comic Book, Hispanic Girl, Map, Venus, Eastern Medicine, Slang (Cool), Guy using self-check out technology, rocking horse (I did not have this one)</p>

<p>Ok I think writing was my experimental because I don't remember a rocking horse or self-check out technology.</p>

<p>I don't recall a rocking house of a self-check out technology passage. </p>

<p>I had 2 writing sections + the short one at the end -- does tyhat mean writing was my experimental?</p>

<p>How many questions was the short one at the end for you? I had 14 questions on that one...first time i've ever got more than 10.</p>

<p>That's strange. I've always gotten 14 questions for the very last section.</p>

<p>Am I the only one who got a long passage about the rapidly decreasing genetic variety among crops? Talked about the Potato Famine, collapse of Maya empire, Dust Bowl... =X</p>

<p>Hmm.. It looks like lot of people thought that tone of Hispanic girl was fearful and uncertain but how?</p>

<p>Like in the passage, it had:</p>

<p>"It wasn't hard for her to see more dangers lay ahead." (or something like that)</p>

<p>Sure it's fearful but then she knows something bad will happen so how is that uncertain? I don't know maybe I'm just one thinking this way. I put apathy and forgot what other one was.</p>

<p>Yajimari21, I had that one.</p>

<p>me too, was that the experimental section? darn... i thought that passage was easy.</p>

<p>Well for the hispanic girl, her mother was shocked that the girl went out to the sidewalk alone. "This isn't Puerto Rico." And something about how unsafe the world is outside their apartment. Clearly, things will never be the same again, so the narrator is fearful and uncertain (of the future).</p>

<p>grayfalcon89:
"Hmm.. It looks like lot of people thought that tone of Hispanic girl was fearful and uncertain but how?"</p>

<p>The passage also specifically said that she "quaked" on the inside even though she had a look of humility on her face.</p>
