March SAT CR Thread

<p>Q: What was the main focus of both passages?</p>

<p>1) The use of cameras in courtrooms
2) TV production</p>

<p>The use of cameras in courtrooms. </p>

<p>I remember the choices being worded differently though…</p>

<p>^I put the use of cameras in courtrooms. Now I’m second - guessing myself. I’m also at -2. I’ll find out in April :)</p>

<p>Guarantee its the use of cameras. You have to pick the BEST answer. And TV Production is just too broad.</p>

<p>does anyone remember the other choices for the question with the answer of “unpretentious manner”</p>

<p>They talked about tv production and it’s effect mostly. Think about how most of the questions asked about tv and it’s importance. None asked about cameras. The second passage opened up talking about gossip and newspapers and how filming has no negative impact. They both talked about televising court trials.</p>

<p>Am I thinking of a different question then? What was the question where one of the answers was “because cameras distract people in the courtroom”, and the question had to do with trial publicity?</p>

<p>i think i only get ~450 this time… this is my first time taking SAT, and i am ESL.
I get about 1/2 questions correct omg…</p>

<p>It was these two choices:
-The importance of televised trials
-the effects of cameras in the courtroom</p>

<p>I chose the latter.</p>

<p>What were the other answer choices for the answer “unpretentious manner of painting” in that reading section?</p>

<p>they talked about the use of cameras specifically and its effect, not TV production.</p>

<p>Can someone help me with the SC question which had the answer: “Inconclusive/fruitless” </p>

<p>what were the other choices?</p>

<p>Anyone remember other choices for (or the context):
Proficient…repertoire.</p>

<p>anyone have a guess score for a six wrong? :(</p>

<p>It was repertory, not repertoire. Proficient/repertory was the answer.</p>

<p>“The research was inconclusive, but not fruitless because it still provided valuable information.”</p>

<p>“He was already proficient in pottery, painting, and metallurgy, so he decided to add puppet mastery to his repertory of skills.”</p>

<p>The camera/tv question I’m thinking of was the last or second to last question in the section.</p>

<p>For the adapting films passage
Passage 1 defends a qualified position, Passage 2 rejects it</p>

<p>Why do you guys say he is defending? If author 1 was conflicted than how could he defend his position?</p>

<p>ANYONE have a guess for my score? I missed six. Tell me I’m still in the 700s? :(</p>

<p>passage 1 defends that fidelity should be preserved in adaptation, but he also qualifies it by granting a concession. the author was conflicted because he defends it but at the same time he said that it can’t always work 100% (or something to that effect).</p>

<p>passage 2 rejects it completely</p>

<p>I found the first article at this site and the name of the article is …TV or not TV: that is the question. </p>

<p>I think this pretty much explains it lol </p>
