<p>There were 2 essay questions?!!?</p>
<p>and in response to Alebed (I think), the question that they were asking about said something like "Which of the following do both authors imply that is not directly stated?"</p>
<p>I feel very insecure about the writing section (not the essay) but I would have to agree that the math was not terribly difficult.</p>
<p>Writing was ridiculously easy!</p>
<p>anyone explain x^2 = x/40 ; x=1600?</p>
<p>...and it definetely didn't feel like 4 hours. I got there at 7:25 AM-ish and left the test center at 12:26-ish, and as I was coming to the final sections of the test, I noticed I wasn't even feeling tired. And that was without even eating breakfast this morning (though I did have about a 1/4 full of a sandwich bag of Raisin Bran halfway through the test :))</p>
<p>I think it also had a cube that was divided into a bunch of smaller cubes too.</p>
<p>Aignam, this isn't supposed to make anyone feel bad. Got it?</p>
<p>i hated the CR section ! asdf</p>
<p>use a ti 89 to solve :) 1600 is right</p>
<p>lol, smokeylarue, i'm not sure about anything until i get my score report. i thought it was a pretty straightforward section though, what specific answers seem iffy to you?</p>
<p>(and i don't think i know a ben from nj...)</p>
<p>lol still don't get it.....1600^2 = 2560000 & 1600/40=40 ....am i readin the question wrong ?</p>
<p>Well if you multiply 40 by 40, you get 1600. Which means the square root of 1600 is 40 (because 40^2=1600) and when you divide 1600 by 40, you get 40.</p>
<p>It took me a while to think of it like that, I had to skip it and come back to it. The way they worded it made it kindof confusing, I think</p>
<p>1 wrong math (stupid mistake) = 800?</p>
<p>I hope so</p>
<p>me too, but i think the math curve will be really harsh. I just hope it wont be as harsh as that of the psats (800, 760, 730)</p>
<p>there was no question about cubes</p>
<p>The 24 right angle cube question was on this one, wasn't it? Or was that the other test?</p>
<p>If you didn't think that Writing was easy today, it means you were unprepared. That's your own fault.</p>
<p>Math and Writing are two things which you can prepare for and see very clear improvement. There's no excuse.</p>
<p>for my essay i got some prompt about whether we need creativity or not, did anyone else get that?</p>
<p>it think it was rbase07....im not possitive but im pretty sure...was that section experimental???</p>
<p>much easier that the 8 new sats in the sat book</p>
