<p>I said awed too because he kept thinking he was deaf so I thought he was like “omg am I deaf or something this is amazing”</p>
<p>Yeah that’s why I was worried about it, thought it should be lacks as well, but my conformist thinking said to put no error lol</p>
<p>Architect and designer William Morris, whose ideas fueled the arts & crafts movement of the 19th century, believed that a society (imaginary) lacking a sound ethical system is (or was?) unable to produce good crap.</p>
<p>There is no error there, “lacking a sound ethical system” appears to be a clause describing “society.”</p>
<p>It was like “a society unable to produce something lacked a something” I put no error here. I didn’t feel that lacked needed to be changed or else it might mess with the meaning of the sentence. </p>
<p>for the one about Ruth I put “her being” (probably wrong)</p>
<p>and yes I got no error for the cartoon one.</p>
<p>Lacked is definitely the error; it does not match with “(is) unable to”. Had it been, “a society that was unable” then it would be lacked. </p>
<p>The Ruth Behar one confused me, I put B for that.</p>
<p>I believe the actual wording was something along the lines of “was a society that lacked…” I was very confident at the time that the answer was no error. And… If that one was not a no error, then I would have only had 2 other no errors (assuming that I missed the baboon one), which is highly unlikely. The no error percentage almost always hovers around 20%.</p>
<p>Also from taking so many writing practice tests, I don’t think CB would put a verb-verb tense error right next to each other in a sentence. I felt like it was the question that CB wanted you to put an error when there actually wasnt.</p>
<p>Yep^ It was a “Joe Bloggs question” as the Princeton Review likes to call it.</p>
<p>Quick (dumb) question:
When UA says “ACT or 1400–1600 SAT score (critical reading and math scores only) and at least a 3.5 cumulative GPA”, I’m assuming that the GPA is a representation of un-weighted grades? Please tell me it isn’t.</p>
<p>I think it was “Architect and designer William Morris, whose ideas fueled the arts & crafts movement of the 19th century, believed that a society unable to produce (something) lacked a sound ethical system” </p>
<p>I think it should be lacks not lacked</p>
<p>The Ruth behar one was "Ruth Behar has written widely on her experiences traveling in Cuba, Spain, and Mexico, ________ " I put “being particularly interested in the intersection of various cultures”</p>
<p>He <em>believed</em>, therefore that said society <em>lacked</em> a sound ethical system in his mind. Lacked is just fine</p>
<p>I agree, I think it should stay as “lacked.” </p>
<p>The sentence starting with “being” was the only one that didn’t make a comma splice, I believe</p>
<p>Yes, I put no error for lacked. And the credited one was definitely incorrect due to being unidiomatic. I also noted a lot of comma splices in the June SAT compared to March and other practice ones that I have done. </p>
<p>Does anyone remember the one about Baboons?</p>
<p>I put no error for the baboon one, but I believe the consensus says otherwise. I might have misread the question</p>
<p>“Daughters” was the error. I put no error at first but changed when I was going back over my answers and actually read the sentences. At the end there was only one baboon daughter so it had to be singular</p>
<p>yeah, I feel like “the mother and her daughters” wouldn’t be an error anywhere else (Why can’t a mother have more than one daughter? Why can’t the connection encompass all her daughters in the same way?) but this is the SAT and rules trump semantics. </p>
<p>a total of 4-5 wrong on the writing section combined with a 9-10 essay would be approximately what score?</p>
<p>@Jellybae there’s no tense error, “believed, lacked, fueled” they all fit together.</p>
<p>Could somebody pls post the baboon sentence or try to post fragments of it? I’m wondering if it was on an experimental section since I don’t remember seeing it</p>
