***June 2014 SAT (US ONLY)***

<p>Can anyone confirm (as much as we can confirm anyway :D) weather or not that math section with the hockey rink and the speed of sound equation and (I think) the weird grid with arrows thing was experimental or not? I totally bombed that section and its pretty much making the difference between a good score or a terrible one. Also, for the one about the three guys making like one half of each other’s money thing (in the student produced response), was it 24?</p>

<p>For the writing section does anyone remember in section 10 the one that went, “sheltered not only by x but also (by) y.” We have to include the second by in there don’t we? the first “by” does not come before “not only.”?</p>

<p>also
Does anyone remember the exact sentence to the one about mother’s and baboons?</p>

<p>@LOLBeast1 I didn’t have that section but that sounds about right. Also, did anyone get that CR one about Nellie Bly?</p>

<p>@thebobguy‌ I remember Nellie Bly but I think it was in the writing section.</p>

<p>@blubrrybanana22 Ahh yeah, that was it. Forgot already :smiley: Anyway, for that last question about improving the last sentence in the last paragraph (the one that was like “Bly went from country to country” or something like that) did you say put “During her trip” in the beginning or change “that ranged” to “ranging”?</p>

<p>@thebobguy I didn’t put either of those but I don’t remember what I put.</p>

<p>@blubrrybanana22 Hmmm… What about your math sections? Did you get one with a question about stop signs and another one about the preferences of students about TV and Computers and Tablets?</p>

<p>PLEASE HELP!!</p>

<p>Did anybody have a math grid in section that had the following questions
1: Second problem was a parabola equation that you had to change into something else
2. Another problem was about Petition A, Petition B, and credit
3. And another question you were given an equation with initial velocity and height</p>

<p>WAS THIS SECTION EXPERIMENTAL???</p>

<p>@Weeender‌ i dont remember any question similar to that so it probably is experiment. can anyone else confirm?</p>

<p>@thericetheory‌ I hope to god it is…Freaked out when i realized I couldn’t do the second problem and spent so long on it that I omitted a ton of other problems</p>

<p>@Weeender‌ did you happen to get a passage about solar panels and the economic efficiency of it? im hoping to god this was an experimental section</p>

<p>Just wanted to correct a few notions about this SAT-</p>

<p>First off the writing could be experimental.
There are a ton of experimental options that people could have had because the SAT people usually give unique ones out to diversify their pool- it is not common to have an experimental on the same thing as someone else.
The experimental section is often hard to determine, but with comparison to others, it can be made. </p>

<p>Here are the sections which counted. If you had a passage that was not like these, it is likely experimental.</p>

<p>the essay (duh), the section with compared passages on celebrities and the manufacturing of related goods, the grammar section with the question about the louve and the improving paragraph with the female explorer, the math section with the weird .5x+t thing and the lines, the reading section with the man from Africa, the math section with the fish question (fill ins). The reading section about space and “dark matter.” The math section with the 142nd integer question (16 mc). The of course the last 10 minute wring section.</p>

<p>Im think that is all correct unless it varies by region (which I don’t think it does), expect the grammar, which I don’t know because one of mine was experimental.</p>

<p>@thericetheory‌ I think that was one of them was considered to be an experimental section on the doc!! I could be wrong though, but I honestly havent heard of many people getting that passage. More likely than not, it was experimental :smiley: </p>

<p>@Weeender I don’t remember those questions so it makes sense that it would be experimental. Keep in mind that it can only be experimental if you had two grid in sections and a total of three 25 min math sections. </p>

<p>Now, little bit of self advertising, have a thread started to try to pool our data and get a completely list of experimental sections. If everyone here would check it out, we might be able to figure it out and stop freaking out :D</p>

<p>@thebobguy
I did have two grid ins!!! And its been established that my other grid in was a real section so I reaaally am hoping that the one i screwed up on was the experimental section I had.
Link to the thread please!!</p>

<p>@Weeender Yeah, same kind of situation I’m in except I haven’t found a single person who has had the same weird math section as me :smiley: Partly why I started the thread.

Just me right now, but if we can get more people, it shouldn’t be hard to get a full list</p>

<p>I only had one grid in myself</p>

<p>explain the words sneak vs pass vs elude? anyone?</p>

<p>@Thebobguy I believe ranging was what I put </p>

<p>Was definitely Pass, @Remembrance‌ </p>

<p>As in, I passed into nothingness after finishing my SAT this morning.</p>
