<p>THE ABUNDANCE QUESTION WAS EXPERIMENTAL.</p>
<p>I take the SAT with 50% extra time (meaning I don’t take ANY experimental sections) and that NEVER came up.</p>
<p>I just realized that i screwed up big time on the essay. I interpreted the essay as “should leaders of different countries be judged based based on what country or group they represent” as a opposed to “should leaders be judged differently from normal people.” Will i get a 1? My examples were nineteenth century European leaders and president Obama (somewhat representing blacks.) I would predict my essay to get a 10-11 if my incorrect interpretation of the prompt didn’t affect me. Would I get a 1 for being off topic?</p>
<p>something like</p>
<p>“Such behavior suggests”
“Their efforts suggest”
for
_____ planning, insight, and perhaps even tool use.</p>
<p>oh kk thanks man! I’m pretty sure I put “such behavior suggests” for that.</p>
<p>If you related it back to the central question of whether or not to judge leaders by different standards, I think you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>I know for my essay I said that leaders should not be held to different standards, but in many cases it is us, as a society, who is holding them to these standards. I talked about how leaders are at the core human beings, which means they are capable of error and sin (examples of Bill Clinton and John Edwards), and cannot be expected to accomplish superhuman tasks (Barack Obama will not automatically bring sweeping political changes, etc). </p>
<p>It was a little out there, but I think it was good.</p>
<p>Billabong, so Barack Obama should be held to the same standards as the likes of you and me? Besides, the question had a qualifier – if the leader broke laws or guidelines to serve the majority. Obama, technically, hasn’t done anything illegal or unconstitutional. It’s a straw man to say we can’t expect leaders to accomplish specific tasks – because no one was contending as such.</p>
<p>How many points would I get if I only had 1 body paragraph?.. This is really upsetting me D:</p>
<p>I mean technically, I did have 2 examples…I compared Raskolnikov’s murder to President Eisenhower’s “murder” of Patrice Lumumba during the Revolution of Congo. I just did not understand the topic clearly, nor could I think of good supporting examples. ugh stupid!</p>
<p>Undiscussed question:</p>
<p>In order to succeed at geology, _____</p>
<p>I put: one must study actual rock formations.</p>
<p>If you only had one body paragraph, then your maximum score is probably 10.</p>
<p>“suggests planning”</p>
<p>what is the question for this? so confused</p>
<p>@ Luminouzz</p>
<p>Same.</p>
<p>One must actually study rock formations is correct</p>
<p>^But not sure why it wouldn’t be…</p>
<p>In order to succeed at geology, studying actual rock formations is essential.</p>
<p>I’m hoping that answer is wrong, but I’m not sure why it would be.</p>
<p>why wasn’t it studying rock formations is essential? that’s what I put. :l</p>
<p>Nvm, wrong place</p>
<p>I’d go with 8. I used Hitler, Queen Elizabeth and Vladimir Putin and had introductory, 3 body paragraphs, and a shortened conclusion where the I in society looks barely written because time ran out as I wrote society.</p>
<p>Matt, I’m 100% sure of “one must study actual rock formations.”</p>
<p>Really? That seems a little high for the foolish mistake I made. Really, as of now, I would be happy with an 8…but I really hope you’re right about the 10.</p>
<p>I hope the readers read really fast and mistake my 1 paragraph for 2…haha yeah…</p>
<p>But why is one more right than the other?</p>
<p>I used Susan B. Anthony, made up person, made up novel</p>
