***March 2014 SAT (US ONLY)***

<p>Was the benjamin franklin section experimental? It had like questions that refered to other questions, and for one of the short passages there was only 1 question allocated to it</p>

<p>@UseTheForceHarry</p>

<p>oh wow! Thank you. Haha i put 32 for my answer because I had no idea what was going on, mixed up triangles and circles i guess.</p>

<p>Do you happen to remember the question after that? I just remember I put 1.16 because I rounded up 22/19 but I don’t even know why I even got to that in the first place </p>

<p>@Fr0zenfury
Yeah, pretty sure that one was experimental since not everyone got it.</p>

<p>@Mathandmusic914
Haha. Some of the questions require you to really think about the context and what is being asked. It’s easy to be tricked on these tests.</p>

<p>Lol i can only hope. I ommitted that entire section</p>

<p>Were viable and hyperbolic…judicious answers for sentence comp.?</p>

<p>Ok three questions
Anyone remember anything on bijeth one, please could you post questions/ answers
I completely effed that one up
The two support/ undermine questions
And just from 17-24 if anyone remembered any answers that would be amazing
Also grammar- the one about something species… Than that of other species or the than that is of… Idk there were two really similar ones, was the long one right?
Thanks everyone!</p>

<p>@Rookie97
I had trouble with that one too. I was stuck between that option, and the one with the word “scholarly”. I chose the latter, but I have a feeling the one with judicious was the correct one. </p>

<p>Damnit. I was so pumped up. 1 wrong in the grid-in screws me over that much. FRRRIICCCKK. </p>

<p>@Asiannoob123
I think the one about species was rodents and mammals. I think I put the not long one, because I know that being too wordy can be a bad thing.</p>

<p>viable doesn’t sound but hyperbolic and judicious was the answer to one of the sentence comp</p>

<p>And was it celerity or clemency? I guessed clemency, but celerity definitely seems correct</p>

<p>@uclahopeful123 Placebo means providing psychological ease as opposed to real physical benefits. But do you remember what the question was asking?</p>

<p>@MyRealName </p>

<p>that question was about garlic and the use of garlic soup in stomach ailments</p>

<p>@uclahopeful123</p>

<p>I recall the second blank being followed by something along the lines of “____ of ailments, cures, benefits.” I honestly don’t remember what I put for that question but neither remedy nor placebo seems to be the right answer. </p>

<p>@misteryman</p>

<p>Is it the one about three kids walking to school?</p>

<p>I remember only two names of the students (Adam and Beth), so I’m just going to label them as A, B, and C.</p>

<p>B takes twice as long as A to get to school. This means that B=2A.
C takes 5 more minutes than B to get to school. Two conclusions: C=B+5, and C=2A+5.</p>

<p>It takes 40 minutes for all of them to arrive. A+B+C = 40.
Also, all three students arrive at the same time.</p>

<p>The question asks to provide the fraction of time remaining for C when A just heads out for school.
To rephrase, it asks what fraction of C’s walk is left by the time A heads out for school. We can find this out because A, B, and C all arrive at the same time.</p>

<p>Because we can substitute B and C in terms of A, we can conclude that A + 2A + 2A + 5 = 40.
In other words, 5A + 5 = 40.</p>

<p>5A + 5 = 40
5A = 35
A = 7</p>

<p>It takes 7 minutes for A to walk to school. That’s one part of the problem solved.
Now we need to find out how long it takes for C to go to school. Substitute 7 for A, and you get 2(7) + 5, which is 19.</p>

<p>It takes 19 minutes for C to walk to school.
Because the distance A and C cover are the same, we can assume that, of the 19 minute journey that C makes to go to school, she only has 7/19 left, because the distance A covers in 7 minutes is identical to the distance C covers in 7/19 of his/her journey.</p>

<p>The answer was 7/19.</p>

<p>*for future reference, I don’t think CollegeBoard ever gives questions that can’t be expressed in fraction form within those four spaces unless SPECIFICALLY asked to provide in decimal notation.</p>

<p>But I thought he was comparing something species to more than that of any other mammals in the world or something and it didn’t delineate what he was saying clearly… Idk. That and the differing in one… Was that ne? I put a and I feel the consensus on here was that it wasn’t…</p>

<p>@Mathandmusic914
Celerity I believe, since it means fast.</p>

<p>collegepanda sat score calculator is pretty good. With 1 wrong on grid-in, I have a 24% of getting a 800 and a 38% of getting a 780. </p>

<p>4 x 8=32
32+center triangle= 64, 64+ each of the outer triangles, 16 each=128
from my calculations, the number for the circles has to be 6, not 8</p>
