March SAT: Experimental Sections

<p>I am creating this thread so we can share which section from our respective test we <em>think</em> was experimental. For me it's a Critical Reading passage about a writer who keeps a journal of fictional thoughts. It jumped right into an excerpt from the journal and only later explained that it was from a fictional journal, I thought the writing style was awfully stream-of-consciousness and somewhat esoteric. Anybody else have this section? Please POST ESPECIALLY IF YOU DIDNT HAVE THE SECTION because that is what enables people to know if the section is experimental (not everyone will have it).</p>

<p>For me Writing Section (35 Questions) - I had 2
One was section 1, the other section 6. </p>

<p>Unsure on exactly which1 was the exp.</p>

<p>Section 7 was experimental. Mine was CR but I had so many CR sections in a row that I don't remember what the passages were...</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure the one with hopscotch was experimental bc my other section with the japanese girl was the same format and the hopscotch I believe had all these random questions for fill in the blanks.</p>

<p>Which math one was experimental? I think its the one with the trapezoid's area, other ppl i asked didnt have that one</p>

<p>BUmppppppppppppppppp</p>

<p>just a clarification, there can be multiple different CR experimental sections right? because i didn't have the cosmos CR experimental quesitons, but not many people had my section either</p>

<p>Yea, the collegeboard is stepping up anti-cheating stuff and testing a lot more sections at one time now apparently.</p>

<p>I know for sure that an experimental for me was math. I think it may have involved equilateral triangles, seeing that it was right before the last math section. That isn't typical for graded SAT sections, right?</p>

<p>i had one with triangles, quadrilaterals, and pentagons, and they gave you the number of polygons in total and the number of sides for all of the polygons. with that info you had to find the number of pentagons... i think it was experimental for me, but it was section 6... did anyone else have that section and think it was experimental?</p>

<p>people with writing sec 2 and 6, #6 was experimental</p>

<p>I had a math experimental, not sure which one it was, but both had a triangle for question 20</p>

<p>Ugh, I wish my experimental was math.
It was writing. I actually think the experimental one was Section 2 because if it was Section 6 and there is only one long writing section. people would assume it's the latter one. So they'd make it the former one.
Does that make sense?</p>

<p>section 6 critical reading? I think i did really well on this section :( too bad it does not count.</p>

<p>for some reason, i feel like there were a LOT of CR sections...and i HATE CR...
i have no idea which one is the experimental but i'm guessing one of the CR's cuz there were just way too many of 'em. i really hope it was one of the last two or somethin b/c my brain was a little fried by then...lol</p>

<p>I know for a fact that one of the experimental sections was the reading section that had to do with the talents and 10,000 hours of practice, etc.</p>

<p>I had a CR exp. about the literary critic who talks about his childhood.</p>

<p>I'm almost positive the CR section with Margaret and Letty and theory about the universe proving human ignorance is an experimental section.</p>

<p>how can u figure out which is the exp section?</p>

<p>^ wow.. didn't have that. Do we find out which sections were experimental?</p>
