<p>did anyone else do this? how did u find it???</p>
<p>i did, i had trouble with the poems</p>
<p>Anybody know how many you can get wrong on lit and still get 800? (US according to sparknotes you only need 82 out of 90 to have 800 but I couldn't find lit and I know the percentiles on it are way tougher).</p>
<p>I don't know what the curve is like, but I didn't think it was too bad. Except, what was the answer to the question about the meaning of "patronized" (from the passage about the politician)? I narrowed it down to "bought frequently" and "supported partially". I ended up choosing the latter as what the author probably meant, though it would have been funnier with the first denotation.</p>
<p>i chose supported partially, but im not sure if its right</p>
<p>posting poems from the test.</p>
<p>TO MY LADY E.C. AT HER GOING OUT OF ENGLAND
by John Suckling</p>
<p>I MUST confess, when I did part from you,
I could not force an artificial dew
Upon my cheeks, nor with a gilded phrase
Express how many hundred several ways
My heart was tortur'd, nor, with arms across,
In discontented garbs set forth my loss:
Such loud expressions many times do come
From lightest hearts: great griefs are always dumb.
The shallow rivers roar, the deep are still;
Numbers of painted words may show much skill:
But little anguish and a cloudy face
Is oft put on, to serve both time and place:
The blazing wood may to the eye seem great,
But 'tis the fire rak'd up that has the heat,
And keeps it long. True sorrow 's like to wine:
That which is good does never need a sign.
My eyes were channels far too small to be
Conveyers of such floods of misery:</p>
<p>And so pray think; or if you 'd entertain
A thought more charitable, suppose some strain
Of sad repentance had, not long before,
Quite empti'd for my sins that wat'ry store:
So shall you him oblige that still will be
Your servant to his best ability.</p>

<p>i retook lit today..and i thought it was WAYYY harder than the january one... i felt really unsure about a lot of answers...</p>
<p>It was hard to look for all of those literary devices in the poems.</p>
<p>i thought it was really really difficult today. i wasnt expecting anything easy but this was ridiculous...and to add to that my english teacher was the proctor.</p>
<p>i kind of struggled through the prose passages which isnt a good sign and i think i made my way pretty well through the poetry. with the curve what's the raw score you need to get 600?</p>
<p>The poems beat the hell outta me. Iambic Pentameter? I haven't done that since 7th grade, ahhh!!!</p>
<p>^ yea those q's threw me off.</p>
<p>I actually don't think i did too badly, I guessed well in regards to the overall tone of the passage.</p>
<p>Maybe high 700's...btw i said supported partially</p>
