<p>You're correct galoisien...I did the problem and also got D - it had the only combination of correct sides</p>
<p>I didn't take this month's SAT, but I did take the October one. Many people (including me) were confident about math, and many people got lower than they expected. So I don't believe in my feelings about tests anymore. I am studying for the December SAT.</p>
<p>so since every1 is getting different tests.... the curve is diff?</p>
<p>^ Probably but I think for the ones who had 4 CR sections..the curve for CR will be more lenient?</p>
<p>akvareli: probably, but aren't all of the tests the same just arranged differently? i know one of my math sections was experimental and if you had a test with a different experimental and didnt have the question about 4-digit multiples of six , then that means the section w/that question was the experimental. </p>
<p>Could someone clarify if I'm correct? I'm kind of unfamiliar with the SAT.</p>
<p>Here's a question I found tricky in terms of how it was asked:</p>
<p>what number exceeds 50% of itself by 10. what's the answer? that's the only one that i wasnt 100% sure of.</p>
<ol>
<li>50% of 20 is 10, and 20 is 10 greater than that value.</li>
</ol>
<p>this is weird i didnt have that question, and i am sure that my experimental was writing because i had 2 sections of 35 writ ques. and only 3 math sec.. but some ppl are not having teh honeycomb looking hexagon one...
is it ever diff tests ?</p>
<p>^ thats what i put but i wasnt sure what the test makers were actually asking. what number EXCEEDS 50% of itself by 10. for a moment during the test, i thought that the answer asked: 50% of what number exceeds 10, in which case the choice would have been the 60 one (e). hopefully i understood it correctly.</p>
<p>The hexagon one formed an equilateral triangle with the corners cut off.
So i said it was an equaliteral traingle becase that would include all the points</p>
<p>I think the language of that needs rewording though .... it is potentially (intentionally?) ambiguous.</p>
<p>yeah that math section was not experimental.. weith the 50 percent thing.. but rchockey94..i think you are right.</p>
<p>you know that combination of 1 of 25 letters and 2 of the digits 1-9, was the answer 2250? I wasnt sure if it was a permutation or a combination? for example...would A 43 be different from A 34</p>
<p>Okay, so I know I missed 2 on the first math section (the one with the two right triangles sharing the same hypotenuse) because I was an idiot who messed up my time management spending five minutes on the parabola problem (in the end I used trial and error on my calculator and ended up with -17), but the rest of the test didn't seem that hard at all! I ended every section with almost 5 minutes extra each time, which is weird because last year I was totally struggling. </p>
<p>Surely the grading curve can't be that if you miss 1 you drop to 760 right away?</p>
<p>guys, one of the math section had price of books and asked for most frequent something.. I did not understand question fully.
Was the question asking for the most offered price of book??
I think I choose $4.5 which was choice C???
and, was the last math section 9 or 8??</p>
<p>about the honeybomb one, did anybody else put a hexagon? cuz thats what i put...</p>
<p>the only other one i had a problem w/ that was supposed to be easy was:</p>
<p>3 lines are drawn vertically labeled p, q, and r or something like that, with a line l, intersecting the 3 of them. if an additional line were drawn, what would be the minimun number of triangles formed?</p>
<p>that question didnt make any sense to me, i put zero</p>
<p>what did u guys put</p>
<p>I had a hexagon inside of a octagon.. but all sides were of equal length and it asked what the ratio of the sides were or something like that.. idk.</p>
<p>giant, it was ZERO. I think</p>
<p>apolc: 2500
25<em>10</em>10
numbers could be repeated..it said so in parantheses</p>
<p>ok cool</p>
<p>what did every1 else put, cuz the question kinda seemed like it was missing something</p>
