May 2013 SAT Discussion Thread

<p>Do you guys remember a math answer being n+2/n?</p>

<p>@sattaker1234 Yeah, I vividly remember that and I put E.
It was the top right question on the right page (2nd to last page as well, IIRC).</p>

<p>For the science passage, the answer was that such little money was given to his research originally while so much money was spent publishing it in eight volumes. For the “hailing one”, I believe the answer was “and it was hailed” as just having the word hailing is ambiguous.</p>

<p>I put E too</p>

<p>How many no errors did you guys get for writing section?</p>

<p>@ilovediannaagron </p>

<p>Math 800
Reading 740ish
Writing 740ish</p>

<p>Total 2280</p>

<p>@ Devonte32896</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m pretty sure that was the answer</p>

<p>@hclg123</p>

<p>I believe I put 2 or 3 no errors</p>

<p>@devonte yeah i got that</p>

<p>@Yakisoba: ;(
retaking june? who’s with me!</p>

<p>for the scientist passage i put the moral was that uneven funding during projects was bad or something…not that early funding was more effective</p>

<p>Was one of the math write in answers 2 and another 4000? I don’t remember the question, just the answer.</p>

<p>My moral was like:
It’s better to fund in the beginning or something along those lines. I believe that was answer choice B.</p>

<p>@ilovediannaagron </p>

<p>Well I went by the most you got wrong, so 2280 is the lowest score you could get. You could have gotten 2310, or maybe even higher. I’m just saying 2280 is worst-case scenario. :)</p>

<p>@sattaker1234
Ah ****. I put 4</p>

<p>@BoundForBoston</p>

<p>i got 2 and 4000</p>

<p>I know this is experimental but the geometry math question with radius 8 and given length of radical3, what was BC? Was it just 8?</p>

<p>I got 2 and 4000 as well.</p>

<p>What makes me mad is that for the remainder 3 question, I put down 4, but then I looked back and thought that I didn’t count 10, so I subconsciously counted 10 twice and got 5. :(</p>

<p>Same here, BoundForBoston. Did you get 6.2 for one answer?</p>

<p>why is everyone discussing math???
here are some reading/writing questions:
reading:

  1. anyone else remember any more questions from the double passage on deception??? did you guys get multiple A’s in a row for that passage?
  2. SC: did you get an answer with “fantastic…ordinary”
    writing:
  3. did you get no error for the identifying one about plays? i think it shifted tenses? #16 or something like that.</p>
