<p>Since I thought the one with duck picture is experimental, i didn’t touch the section, at all.
Am i to be penalized for not solving it??
If so, by how much?</p>

<p>no penalty for skipping the experimental section…no worries</p>

<p>According to the jun 12 thread, I ****ed up CR and made 2 mistakes on the Maths portion.</p>

<p>ARE the answers above all correct?</p>

<p>I thought that the academy (army) was Pedantic, and the professor used …reasoning. It did not sound lie repetition to me</p>

<p>Also seemed like reasoning to me</p>

<p>It’s definitely reasoning , repetition…I suspected that at first but repetitions is only used in one sentence not the entire 30 or so lines and how can you view the army as “snide”. I put pedantic.</p>

<p>I put pedantic too. Have any one remembered the question for the answer “novelty” “trifling”?</p>

<p>@popurban i remembr dat question…the req area=area of semicircle-area of triangle…ans is (a) ie=50pi-96
And d (b) option was 50pi-120</p>

<p>I thought that they had given a full circle for that question, so unwittingly wrote 100pi-96.(It was a FULL circle, right?)</p>

<p>For the us version writing section 6, what did you guys put for 28 (adults with back problem one) and 29 (the two gemstones one) and the one about the town council and plastic bags…for section 10 number 13 (99% extinct) was it a or b</p>

<p>Sorry first writing was section 5</p>

<p>I was really troubled by that one. I just put B.</p>

<p>Did anyone have the math (section 3 for me) where the 2nd question was:
chemical C costs 89$/milliliter and then how much does a 3% solution of it cost? - or something like that</p>

<p>because I could not get about five of the last problems in that section…Im hoping it was experimental?</p>

<p>@shs2015:</p>

<p>28 - D (they have multiple backS), 29 - E (no error), 99%- A (or whichever answer had the YET it it)</p>

<p>And what about the one about plastic bags and the council postponing other decisions I section 5… Was it but or however</p>
