June 2010 Critical Reading

<p>I’m still convinced that domineering was an answer for the Argentina passage.</p>

<p>Well Account, do you remember the question.</p>

<p>@kobudnik
i think i see what you guys are talking about now
thx</p>

<p>Anyone remember what context “underdog” was used in?</p>

<p>The comedian used underdog humor; the little guy used his intellect to survive in the world.</p>

<p>I too have -3. Wish that wasn’t rounded down to -4 in the raw, we might have a shot at 800 otherwise. Oh well, hope I didn’t have any bubbling mistakes or stupid stuff like that.</p>

<p>Thank god for superscoring.</p>

<p>I’ve got -2, but I might have a bubbling mistake. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.</p>

<p>I have a question for the one about the zoo: “passage 1 presents an argument that passage 2 finds unpersuasive”. I put “passage 1 presents an issue that passage 2 illustrates in greater detail”. Why am i wrong?</p>

<p>only 1 more</p>

<p>i still think there’s an analogous situation one for the talent passage…</p>

<p>The vocab really screwed me over. I missed like 5 in vocab alone.</p>

<p>Why is it “passage 1 presents an argument that passage 2 finds unpersuasive” and not “passage 1 presents an issue that passage 2 illustrates in greater detail”?</p>

<p>Which one was “Crucial, Recruiting” referring to?</p>

<p>^ something about how a woman was crucial in recruiting women to the science fields</p>

<p>I believe I got -4 to -6 if I’m unlucky based off the complete list. What would that translate to?</p>

<p>-4: 750-770
-5: 740-750
-6: 720-740</p>

<p>For the “different viewpoints have equal values” answer in the talent passage, is that the same as both were equally hostile towards opposite viewpoints or something?</p>

<p>no. the answer with hostile was talking about equal reactions to hostile comments. the correct answer is similar reactions to values they oppose.</p>

<p>Thanks for clarifying that up. You guys have impeccable memories. I can’t remember like 40% of this SAT.</p>
