<p>altf4 -- "Spread out" implies that it's over a large area; the word "widely" isn't necessary to convey the meaning of the sentence. I don't think it's significant enough to count as incorrect, but who knows about the SAT people.</p>
<p>yeah, can never be too sure with ETS
their conception of a "right answer," heh...</p>
<p>I've seen ETC throw out one problem on a entire test I think twice so far. So it happens very rarely. But what we have here is an entirely new test, and people tend to make mistakes making new things.</p>
<p>does anyone remember the character revelation question and what the answer was?</p>
<p>I wonder if any ETS people look at this site/thread...</p>
<p>Do you have any more information about the character revelation question? My memory is failing me.</p>
<p>yep...it was one of the last questions in the last section (10). something like...movies change the plots of books sometimes because they use different character revelation techniques. Was the answer "because they reveal characters differently"</p>
<p>Oh that! Yeah I spent the last 2 min of section on that question... it was either that or this other thing. ARGH! Sorry, I know this isn't helping. think I put down either that or this other one... Because I remember thinking how you can reveal characters... like one of the answer choices didn't sound grammatically correct to me. How idiotic... I think that was the right choice. And I bubbled in the wrong one...?</p>
<p>lol i know what you mean. i was debating between "because they reveal characters differently" and "because they MAY reveal characters differently."</p>
<p>i put the first one though because the original didn't have "may" in it so i didn't want to change the meaning</p>
<p>Wasn't it something like "Because the two art forms reveal characters differently"? I don't think ETS used "Because THEY reveal characters differently"...</p>
<p>lol... Yeah it was those two I was... vacillating... between. I think I put the one whose use of pronoun sounded less wrong. Goodness I hate grammar. I really think I failed the Writing section... even if the proctor hadn't called time when I was in the middle of a sentence.</p>
<p>I know which question you guys are talking about, but I can't remember for sure which answer I put -- I think what Claridge said, though.</p>
<p>And Claridge is right. If it was "they" instead of "the two art forms," then that's ambiguous and, therefore, incorrect. And I don't think there was any need for "may," if that was added to one of the answers...</p>
<p>yes i was wrong it was actually "the two art forms" so they did not exist and wasn't ambiguous</p>
<p>elcommando? or something. that machu picchu article: it was on the internet before the sat test i think haha, but think about it.. who in the world would know that that would be on the test</p>
<p>hey there was one question about bettering the sentence:</p>
<p>"...particular group of people... as a member of "
i said it was wrong because i thought it should be
"as members of"
what was the right answer? thanks</p>
<p>east coasters: what was your essay topic? it seems that the west and the east were different (the west coast had a prompt on creativity).</p>
<p>D said it was about majority rule.</p>
<p>I have a question for everyone: I accidentally left 2 math bubbles blank (I've been brooding about it ever since, well sort of), but I think i got every other math question correct. Assuming I did, how well can I do on the math?</p>
<p>I refuse to let this thread die!</p>
<p>I'd say your in the 760-770 range.</p>
