May 2012 Critical Reading Discussion

<p>@zzzzzz
i was little confused but discpiline made most sense with “regimentation”…</p>

<p>@6z: Yea, I know… I’m just curious how do you usually do on the CR section? b/c IDK if I should cancel; my march sat scores look like they would be better.</p>

<p>@wpfjtmwls that doesn’t make sense in context. answer was field</p>

<p>@likeastarr/zzzzz
i’m getting most of your answers, and i’m typically very strong in crit reading :)</p>

<p>@likeastarr
I got a 690 on my Jan SAT, which is around my average, but I am pretty sure I did better on this one. What do you usually get?</p>

<p>@onlyshallow
Don’t say that… you might have gotten an 800 this time… we all might have…</p>

<p>@onlyshallow
thanks for reassuring!! :)</p>

<p>do you remember the one with choices ancilliary… germane…??</p>

<p>@wpfjt</p>

<p>You took it a little too literal. Remember the questions are based off the passages, meaning the answers are based off the passages. It’s not about what you think, it’s about what is being said by the author in the passage.</p>

<p>i got a 730 on the march one… but I thought this time was difficult. the 4 CR sections kinda threw me off a lot</p>

<p>@likeastarr
I don’t remember those choices and don’t even remember seeing them. Maybe that was the exp?</p>

<p>guys what about that sc that talked about the guy who was unusually _____ in his presentation. the choices were like loquacious…garrulous and ebullient…effusive</p>

<p>it was like the last question in one of the vocab sections…</p>

<p>@zzzzzz</p>

<p>haha i was saying it in a reassuring way. i’m confident in most of my answers, so i think you guys also did well.</p>

<p>i think it was voluble and cryptic??</p>

<p>@dcsnow1345
I got voluble…cryptic. Wasn’t sure though.</p>

<p>So none of you took the January one? I see a lot of march people haha. This one was easier than the January one and i got a 710 on it, hoping for the best on this one.</p>

<p>@solrak
Agreed. Jan CR was impossible for me lol.</p>

<p>@likeastarr
Lol same answer again…</p>

<p>I HOPE i put voluble and cryptic… i could have put ebullient and effusive or something.</p>

<p>oh yeah i think you’re right voluble and cryptic was right.</p>

<p>anyone have a passage about the narrator describing his brother playing piano at a music performance? cause then that might’ve been ANOTHER experimental reading section LOL</p>

<p>its voluble and cryptic, the two words had to be opposites.</p>
