<p>I don’t know about you, but I had a problem with the question about the room with the chandeliers. To me, the “Its” read awkwardly and was ambiguous in its position before the actual noun itself. For example, if you say “its tall windows make the room seem more magnificent,” does its mean “the room” in all certainty? Or could it refer to the wall? The ambiguity really got me here. It’s kind of like saying, “Her dress made Sheila seem larger.” Whose dress? Sheila’s or Carey’s or Linda’s? The ambiguity personally confused me.</p>
<p>Hmm. Having read all this, I think I will probably have to agreed with everyone who says “Its” is wrong, even though I put NE.</p>
<p>Pretty sure it’s right, because the only replacement would be The room’s tall windows make the room seem larger, which is also incorrect since, in that case, the second “the room” must be replaced with “it,” and since you can’t have two errors, the original sentence, while a bit ambiguous, is correct.</p>
<p>Hey, this is the appropriate place to talk about the essay, right? What’d you all think of the essay? It stumped me for a solid four or five minutes before I started planning effectively, but I managed to nearly fill the two pages, and I felt like it was relatively well-written (well-developed, at the very least). Wound up using Siddhartha (the Hermann Hesse novel), the Dieppe raid, and Gettysburg as my three examples. Maybe I went a little heavy on war, but whatever.</p>
<p>What was your essay topic? There’s always 4 different one.</p>
<p>I think that alternative reads more correctly however… To mimic the structure…</p>
<p>Its tall windows and vaulted ceiling make the room seem larger.
The room’s tall windows and vaulted ceilings make the room seem larger.</p>
<p>To me, just sort of reading it to myself, the latter seems correct. The words “tall windows and vaulted ceilings” separate the different usages of “the room” enough that I think it sounds better. Would the second “the room” truly have to be replaced with “it”? That’s no hard and fast grammatical rule, correct?</p>
<p>I’m not sure if it was discussed or if it was in the experimental section (which I had), but does anyone remember a question about something causing a woman to be “repelled” into recognition/stardom/prosperity (something along those lines)?
I believe “repelled” was underlined as choice D. In any case, I circled it because people are propelled into recognition, not repelled. Thoughts?</p>
<p>^^Well, the extra reason that I picked E was partially due to the fact that I’d only have 2 Es if I picked A. But I digress.</p>
<p>There’s no hard and fast grammatical rule, but I think "its’ is perfectly fine as is. The its could be talking about just one wall, as some other posters said, and could just be a pronoun for something beside the room. There’s no hard and fast rule that it refers to the room.</p>
<p>Are there really four? I’ve only heard anyone, here and amongst friends at the test center, talking about the retaining/forgetting mistakes prompt. I saw that prompt at first and made a [url=<a href=“http://myfacewhen.com/395/]Putin[/url”>http://myfacewhen.com/395/]Putin[/url</a>] face.</p>
<p>Does anybody remember the one where it was like ‘bring to her profession a respectability…’ and to was underlined?</p>
<p>Not sure what other parts were underlined but The answer was “has”.</p>
<p>What was the answer to the bicycle question? Was that no error?</p>
<p>Was the guy who combined books in the caribbean no error?</p>
<p>Is there only one type of experimental section? I’m confused because I had two writing sections and I swear the paragraph was about this brother that looks for treasures on the beach</p>
<p>as did I, i had one about lawns and green grass and one about treasures. Which one was the experimental? I thought i did okay on the green grass , and perfect on the treasures. :D</p>
<p>3 or 4 wrong over 740?</p>
<p>I had 4 wrong and a 12 on my essay and got a 750 in October.</p>
<p>@onmyway to ivy</p>
<p>posssibly but not highly likely since this was a fairly easy writing section.</p>
<p>what was the answer to the question about lawns and it asked what the sentence should be? All i rememeber is that one of the choices had the word aesthetic in it and the the other one said something like, " however, lawns are expensive to keep up"///does that ring a bell?</p>
