<p>@KyaSenStar,</p>
<p>The first one wasn’t a question. Just a description of the passage. :P</p>
<p>The second one…I believe the question is what was the main idea of the passage?</p>
<p>Why was “atypical brain structure” not the answer?</p>
<p>OH I remember the question now. Got it right too 
haha thank you bri1a4n</p>
<p>@cornetking222,</p>
<p>“Why was ‘atypical brain structure’ not the answer?” - They did not choose the subjects based on their brain structure; they chose them because they all possessed perfect-pitch.</p>
<p>Nah, atypical brain structure was not the criteria that was used in choosing the participants (which is what the question was asking for) the brain structure was what was being searched for. The participants were chosen based on a particular ability or something (Absolute Pitch)</p>
<p>Another answer:
Kate viewed the “old days” as snobbishly excessive.
Is that correct?</p>
<p>This is a very stupid question: for the sentence that roughly went something like this:
Jesse Jackson was an _________ to his mentors, and he now continues to advocate the civil rights movement.</p>
<p>why is it not valectdictorian</p>
<p>Because the valedictorian is the individual who gives the closing speech at a graduation, unless I’m missing a more unconventional interpretation.</p>
<p>Ah there was a question regarding a group’s mandatory meetings and the requirement of each of the members to be personally present, therefore the use of a substitute would be _____.</p>
<p>I was convinced all the options were wrong. I’m sure I got it wrong because I put venerable (which I knew then and now to be respectable). But what was the answer?</p>
<p>It was acolyte if I’m not mistaken (instead of valedictorian). An acolyte is someone who supplements the furthering of a cause. He was under the wing of his mentors but he wasn’t (in the past) the primary party in the cause.</p>
<p>And yeah, I got Kate’s view of the old days to be snobbishly excessive as well.</p>
<p>@moodragonx-- the answer was proscribed, which means condemned</p>
<p>^Proscribed is the answer.</p>
<p>Ah crap. Wow, I really should have known that…</p>
<p>I was convinced when reading it that the option read “prescribed” as in to recommend or to establish a way.</p>
<p>But I guess thats what they were going for, fell for it :(. Ah well I’ll live.</p>
<p>Thanks :).</p>
<p>^I know how you feel. That feeling you get when you discover one of your answers is wrong because it goes against the consensus on this site is the worst feeling one has to go through. Each answer that I find I answered incorrectly, my heart skips a beat.</p>
<p>What should I expect to get with 9 wrong, 0 omits?</p>
<p>^Like 660-680.</p>
<p>^ something around 680</p>
<p>What was the question with “spare”? (sorry if someone already posted it. I stopped reading through after page 18)</p>
<p>^ Question with spare was one of the vocab. Something about a book not using any words that are superfluous.</p>
<p>it was something about a author writing in some way. the sentence was like
author blah blah blah (spare); no words were wasted.</p>
