<p>In the diamond story, there is a qustion like : the nephew proposed…and I chose something like" various people to narrate a story "</p>
<p>In the lying passage, something in passage 1 is considered by passage 2 as typical wrong conception.</p>
<p>I have changed my qualification answer to paradox… so stupid
guys, go on adding!</p>
<p>Can anyone tell me some details of the “supposed” question? I just didn’t remember it</p>
<p>what did everybody put for the question about technology being a “mixed blessing” or something like that?
i think the options were it overshadows its creators, its becoming more and more important,…and i don’t really remember the rest.</p>
<p>For the supposed question, I don’t think I had counterintuitive. I remember looking at the choice but I didn’t think it worked.</p>
<p>My assumption of my results is:
Math: 790 (min)
W: 720
CR: 600 (this is my worst section but I will probably get much more -expecting the worst, hoping the best)</p>
<p>Expected total: 2110 (min)
Hoped total: 2200 :)</p>
<p>For the mother-daughter passage, what were the other choices for the “prudent” question? and was this question number 18 or something? and was “prudent” choice (B)?</p>
<p>(because I can’t remember what I put for this one, and I remember fidgeting around question 18)… thanks!!</p>
<p>Reading through these past posts, there seems to be a lot of doubt that counterintuitive was the answer. I agree with the person awhile back who said it was an erroneous claim.</p>
<p>yellowroses: I put the thing about overshadowing its creators too.</p>
<p>I had “not accurate” for the supposed question.</p>
<p>^^I sort of think I did too, and I think a lot of other people did. Someone should change it on the list.</p>
<p>the answer was not “not accurate”. nowhere in the passage did it say that.</p>
<p>57/69 should be at least 700… that is a pretty decent curve (one of the curves in the blook book 57=700, the other test 57=680)</p>
<p>any guesses?</p>
<p>also, whatever went on since last night, you guys are wrong about counterintuitive. that doesn’t even make sense. the author implied that such idea had flaws, not that it was counterintuitive. i dont know the exact wording of the answer though.</p>
<p>@matthew, what was the question?</p>
<p>in the chimpanzee passage, the author questioned the fact that many people think one inventor invented something, “supposedly,” and went on to say that no one single person can invent something, its a collective work.</p>
<p>also, witty repartee is wrong. of all the answers, that was the MOST wrong.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the question where it compared the artist with the crazy costumes to a nun? I can’t remember what I put but I think it had something to do with like worldly rejection or something, anyone remember the actual answer? Also what was the one where it compared her to the mask and frame?</p>
<p>in fact, what the hell went on for the last few hours? who decided to just go on and change the answers on the consolidated list? we went over 50 times that fits and starts was sudden bursts. we also went over the counterintuitive. mask and frame served contradicting purposes. let’s do this **** right guys.</p>
<p>did anyone else say “amused tolerance” for the tone question? (string theory)</p>
<p>Complete agreement sounds extreme, as the author of passage 2 thinks that string theory is “wrong” i.e. would not agree that string theory could be even proven through experimental evidence…</p>
