<p>for the passage on neatness, did anyone else say that both authors agreed it was a virtue?
there were several questions from that section that tripped me up.</p>
<p>did anyone realize theres only 23 questions in one of the 25min non-experimental reading sections o.o
and does anyone remember a question from the space passage something about two palnets floating apart slower . mean the universe is moving slower ? was that the answer</p>
<p>Can someone give me more answer choices on the unrealistic expectations question</p>
<p>World Series Question: isn’t the answer to support an undertaking since right after the author talks about how if people were knowledgeable in the electoral collage system they’d understand it? </p>
<p>Sci Fi: wasn’t one of the answers that America had calculated correctly where it would be technology wise thus pulling americans more towards the fantasy section?</p>

I think that one was argue against a change. He talked about the world series to show to critics how change isn’t needed and things that are seemingly flawed are fine in the end. There was a whole discussion about this earlier in the thread…</p>
<p>Sci Fi: One of the answers was “an unbelievable goal” or something like that when it asked about what vision represented. The other answer was “to explain a shift in thought of popular culture”</p>
<p>I feel like for something in the electoral college passage I put “demonstrate workable alternatives”…I don’t know if that was in the rigorously analyze question</p>
<p>Yes, I just didn’t know the exact words of that answer, but yes, that was the question, and unrealistic expectations is the answer,</p>
<p>@steiny</p>
<p>I think you are talking about the analyze one. The answer choice read something like the critics should rigorously analyze the faults in their alternatives. Or something of that nature</p>
<p>Wait does anyone remember the full question for the sentence completion with the answer “jovial”. I don’t remember that one… Could it possibly be experimental?</p>
<p>Guys quick question…for the baseball one i put “explains a dilemma” cause it was showing how a team could win the world series without scoring the most runs (the situation to me feels like a dilemma) and by using the baseball example the author also explained the dilemma of the electoral college and stuff…any cance i got this correct?</p>
