<p>alright i have a solid 7 or 8 wrong (those aforementioned immune questions KILLED me) and considering how tough this test was i’m hoping that the curve will give me 750… that’s reasonable right?</p>
<p>alec I was thinking about ziploc type bags… hmmm. well if its clear then by definition it should be light penetrable, correct?</p>
<p>RAlec, a clear bag, no matter what material it is made out of, will be penetrated by light. The reason it is clear is because the light passes through and then reflects off the contents.</p>
<p>marcopchen, your reasoning makes no sense at all. First of all he didn’t mean agglutination, he meant what he said – acclimation was the fifth choice. Passive does not mean “will pass”, it means inactive, the opposite of active. Passive immunity just means that the organism itself doesn’t produce the antibodies, and there is no way you could deduce the meaning of either concept from names alone.</p>
<p>Sententia - agreed.</p>
<p>Did the question say “clear” bag? or “plastic” bag. that would be a huge difference.</p>
<p>Hydreptsi - how did you know that my name is Alec. I guess it’s kind of obvious, but I’m still creeped out!! 
lol. Wow I did not consider ziploc type bags… but even so, if you think about it, a black ziploc bag would still be penetrated by light, at least I imagine so.</p>
<p>I’m starting to dislike that question.</p>
<p>I think it said clear plastic bag and black plastic bag. That question set was bad in general. :/</p>
<p>To anyone who used a book other than PR to study: what book did you use and how well did it cover you?</p>
<p>haha well i’m nick if that gives you any sort of “window into my soul”</p>
<p>yeah honestly that was ridiculous… carrots and countertops and bags… blech</p>
<p>the worst was by far the immune system set of four though. although i had never seen those words before (i used barrons and 5 steps to a 5 and knowledge from ap bio) i thought i could make great educated guesses… and got DESTROYED</p>
<p>How is barrons SAT 2? if there were one book I wish I tried, it would be barrons (PR - good but not enough content, Kaplan - too much useless content, and uber boring).</p>
<p>I guessed and got one right, and 2 wrong. I knew agglutination. So I guess I got pretty lucky, getting 1/3 right. 1/3 won’t satisfy me, still wish I got 3/3 right, that’s just the nature of things…</p>
<p>honestly a 770s just as good as an 800 for colleges and such… i’m just hoping for my 750. and i mean i didnt use barrons for the information because i have my 5 steps to a 5 and my ap biology textbook (audesirk & audesirk)</p>
<p>the practice tests seem decently realistic. a little bit harder than the real thing, but of course the real thing seemed to be harder than usual this time. so probably definitely harder than the real hting</p>
<p>What would a 73/80 be? Should I consider canceling + retaking (I’m not really familiar with score choice, especially with subject tests)?..</p>
<p>i used barrons and it was really helpful. there wasn’t a single question on the test that i couldn’t have answered (besides the ear one).</p>
<p>as far the immune questions go…those were very straightforward. you could have educated guessed your way through and easily gotten them right. </p>
<p>hydreptsi is right, colleges divide SAT II scores in 50 point categories and 750-800 is the highest one.</p>
<p>i usually got around 770 on the barrons practice tests (harder than this one) which was around 8 wrong, none blank so a raw score of 70. </p>
<p>i’m predicting 4-5 wrong on this one (that plastic bag question sucked), but the curve will be harsher so maybe around a 770-780ish.</p>
<p>Errr, what is the maximum number that we can get wrong on E for an 800? 3 or 4?</p>
<p>and how about that lab with the birch and the beech? What was the answer to the last question about what does not need to be done to keep the experiment constant? I think the choices were:
keep the temp. constant
trim the leaves
keep the light constant
keep them disease free
and (something else i can’t remember).</p>
<p>I should have got barrons. </p>
<p>4-5 wrong is like 780-800</p>
<p>I put trim leaves. Based on the CB released test, it is 2 wrong one omit (-3) for an 800. The curve on this will be different, but it will be similar.</p>
<p>I really don’t see how you could get through the immunity questions with educated guesses without any prior knowledge. To me, passive and active seemed like long term vs immediate, so I said the breast milk was active and the other one was passive.</p>
<p>well, with passive immunity, u can imagine that the organism had very little involvement in the immunity, so u could choose passive. However, having prior knowledge usually outrules any educated guessing, so don’t rely on those guesses.</p>
<p>I don’t know… it just seems like “active immunity” would apply more to an immune system “seeming to be more active to be immune.” And Agglutination just reminded me of clumping haha and our biology classes last year did an experiment measuring the level of clumping of lipids. And gluttony/clumping just seemed synonymous to me!
And I guess it also helped that I’m studying to be an EMT and had to learn about allergies…hahaha</p>
<p>ugh… collegeboard is so vague.</p>
<p>Anyone remember the other choices of Ear?</p>
<p>i know it was sumthing about
Somethingthat vibrates differently as response to frequency
diff parts ringing as response to diff sound
something that selects frequency to respond to
Sound affecting diff parts of the semicircular canal</p>
<p>What was the answer??? i know it was basilar membrane but i don’t remember which one contained it…</p>
<p>There was a question on the M section that asked something about a typical female, and the choices were</p>
<p>I: XX
II: XY
III: XO</p>
<p>I know it’s obviously not XY, and it’s obviously XX, but I’m not sure about the third. I know the third is Turner’s syndrome, and phenotypically you’re still a female, but my doctor mom claims the definition “typical female” makes the answer ONLY I. Any thoughts? I put I and III, because I’ve met a Turner’s before, and they’re just like a regular female. Maybe the phenotype/typical thing tricked me.</p>
<p>Yea but the point about the plant zygote -> embryo is that yes mitotic division is required but sole mitotic division does NOT lead to development of an embryo. Cell differentiation is required for that. </p>
<p>“Plant embryogenesis is the process that produces a plant embryo from a fertilised ovule by asymmetric cell division and the differentiation of undifferentiated cells into tissues and organs”</p>
<p>[Plant</a> embryogenesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_embryogenesis]Plant”>Plant embryonic development - Wikipedia) - If you want to check</p>
<p>was the ear question the one with the “pressure frequency, or frequency of sound waves”</p>
<p>oh & i thought colon was for breaking down biles?</p>
