<p>It's year/month/day. "Nian, yue, ri"</p>
<p>Also, are you talking about the ying shua question. Because I think that's a printing company.</p>
<p>i put C for the listening question where they were introducing people. how about you? also, i didn't mean to like answer something u already answered. it's not that big of a deal, i dunno why you had to point it out that u already answered it...</p>
<p>btw, who in here is a FOB?</p>
<p>Are you sure silverspeed? I mean I understand that "da 7 zhe" would be like 30% off. But wasn't the "da 4 zhe" (60% off) for the juniors sports clothing? (qing shao nian yun dong yi).</p>
<p>and for the last one, I said it was aimed for "educators".</p>
<p>i got the i'm excited to meet you for the listening question</p>
<p>also the question about the roads being cut off, it was it issued by the department of transportation?</p>
<p>redpen:
shen fen zheng is ID card.
fu zhao is passport.</p>
<p>chinkytwinkie: I put C too. (nice to meet you)</p>
<p>I'm sorry chinkytwinkie if I offended you in anyway. I just wanted to tell you to look above too. That way I wouldn't have to type everything out over again and that way you'll know that "xiang lai" was probably right since I explained it above.</p>
<p>I'm very sorry.</p>
<p>i put it was issued by department of transportation. and i remember the junior sportswear was "da si zhe" which is 60% off, so that's why i put that. </p>
<p>so is everybody ABC/non-native Chinese ppl?</p>
<p>redpen: </p>
<p>yeah I put the department of transportation too.</p>
<p>chinkytwinkie:</p>
<p>What's a FOB?</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, what does ABC stand for? and FOB?</p>
<p>I'm Chinese, in case you're wondering.</p>
<p>ABC = american born chinese. i can't believe you've never heard of it...
FOB = fresh off the boat, as in people who were born in another country and moved to america.</p>
<p>haha...I figured out the ABC right after I posted my question.</p>
<p>I guess I'm a FOB then. I was born in China and came when I was 2.</p>
<p>haha, how about everyone else?</p>
<p>blah, chinese SAT curve is really hard because so many ppl are good at chinese. if u miss 1, u could get a 790 or 800. if u miss 2, it's like 790 at best.</p>
<p>is anyone else here not abc or fob? i have been studying chinese for 3ish years in high school and i went to china last summer... but i am the only person in my class taking the sat ii... am i crazy?? i am hoping for above 600, but it sounds like absolutely everyone has been studying chinese their whole lives or is fluent :(</p>
<p>what kind of score could you expect to get if you missed 4?</p>
<p>could someone please explain the discount thing? Even my mom didnt understand me when I asked her, lol. </p>
<p>haha, FOBs are more for people who recently came to America, hence the "fresh" part. I came when I was 2, like stars4u. we don't really have a name =p</p>
<p>my lowest SAT2 score is gonna be in my native language. how ironic!</p>
<p>Okay discount thing:</p>
<p>"da 4 zhe" means 60% off
da 6 zhe" means 40% off</p>
<p>I hope that helps!</p>
<p>My parents didn't know either. I had to ask my Chinese School teacher.</p>
<p>stars4u: no harm done, it's just some ppl on forums can be overbearingly rude and ostentatious and all that good stuff.</p>
<p>the way i look at the %age thing is that it's the % of the original price that you have to buy. so like "da 4 zhe" means u only pay 40% of the price which is 60% off.</p>
<p>if u missed 4, i would say maybe 750? i dunno. all i know is that the curve is really really bad because a ton of FOBs take the test and get 800. i mean..the average IS like 750 or something around there!</p>
<p>carpecollege: i think colleges will recognize your non-chinese background and be more "lenient" on you. i mean...seriously..i grew up speaking mandarin and i still got stuff wrong!</p>
<p>so anyone else take chinese SAT?</p>
<p>Does anyone remember what the last question was about?</p>
<p>The last question of the grammar section was about the guy always being on time but today he was late (Answer: xiang lai).</p>
<p>The last question of the reading comprehension was an ad posted about a job at an university. From what other people have said, I guess it was aimed towards educators (they needed 3 teachers) and they needed to turn in letters of recommendation.</p>
