Just got my October Q&A. Ask me questions.

<p>I think keviniscool means the question where it asks about the part where the physicist talks about meetings and conventions that physicists have and how they make science more personal. I think it was one of the questions toward the end of that section (like the 3rd last one?)</p>

<p>I had a question about the last math question... the one with the four equations and z= to a bunch of x's and y's... could you type up the question? :D</p>

<p>can AlliHeathe or anyone who have got q&a scan the q&a to us?Maybe this idea is good.</p>

<p>they will probably come in the mail on monday....</p>

<p>Daughter missed 5 in math and got a 680</p>

<p>me too, momsawreck. it was a pretty harsh curve. in june, i think i missed 9 and got a 660.</p>

<p>also, -7 was a 720 in CR, and -3 was a 740 in writing, with a 10 essay.</p>

<p>D missed 8 omitted 1 in CR and got a 690
Does this sound right</p>

<p>no. i got 10 wrong and got a 700</p>

<p>On one of the math questions, was "y" an answer?</p>

<p>Yes</p>

<p>Is something along the lines of (square root of 5) + 3 an answer on math section?
Yes, triangle question was 5 radical 3 + 5</p>

<p>What's the answer of the math question that asks for the are of square and rectangle combined?</p>

<p>Can't find this.</p>

<p>Is (-3,-3) an answer?
Yes, square reflected over line y=-x was (-3,-3)</p>

<p>How about the camp question with 240 and something else? Was 40 the answer? Yep</p>

<p>Duper could you check a SC with historians and collections. I'm pretty sure I got that wrong.</p>

<p>**Not sure which question, I can't find anything about historians. Maybe you're referring to this one. </p>

<p>Although the women in eighteenth and nineteenth centuries who undertook botanical illustration were primarily <strong><em>, their contributions as naturalists and cataloguers actually helped the _</em></strong>__field as an academic discipline. </p>

<p>Answer was Amateurs-legitimize
You probably chose historians-chronicle.**</p>

<p>I'm looking at the Q and A service, and she only missed 8 and omitted 1. What should we do Kevinscool - request hand scoring??</p>

**
8wrong 1omit = 690 according to chart. So no.**</p>

<p>june curve:
Critical Reading
67: 800
66: 800
65: 800
64:
63: 770
62:
61: 740
60: 730
59:
58: 710
57: 700
56: 690
55: 680
54:
53:
52:
51:
50: 640</p>

<p>eight wrong and one omit would be 690 according to this curve.</p>

<p>and minus ten would be 680.</p>

<p>could guys post all the Sentence complete questions and answers for those who have it already?</p>

<p>or just post if any of these answers that i compiled are wrong.</p>
