Nov 5th SAT I

<p>that was experimental</p>

<p>i had the lying/deception, but I'm not sure about manufacture...</p>

<p>what was that question where it said whats the same as "blank and blank" (the two words were italicized) and then the answer choices were "blank and blank" also?</p>

<p>this may have been anaswered before... but so i could have a good night sleep... WHAT WAS THE MATH EXPERIMENTAL????? i only omitted two on everything else... except for the quacked out one with the triangle in the xy plane thingy,the marbles (with t being the answer), the average (with 75 being the answer), the dce with the figures, etc... was that the experimental, cause i omitted 4 on that....</p>

<p>i didn't like the quantum physics one at all. and i'm usually very good at reading boring passages.</p>

<p>i really hope that the section with trepazoid is the experimental.</p>

<p>errr, i'm cross thread posting sry bout that</p>

<p>hello people, i am new here so bear with me if i'm not following forum protocool XD. I remember a couple of questions, and after reading all these posts here, I'm mondo scared about how I did, it's not shaping up too well for me. All of you do bad ok lol so I can do better. So here are some of my questions:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>on one of the verbal sections dealing with the astronomy club, did they go to the archive or the planetaroum? the obvious answer is of course planetarium but mimic didn't seem like a better word than recreate(which was paired with archive) i ended up putting planetarium</p></li>
<li><p>For the last one on one of the writing skills sections, about the family in the hotel and the girls each wanted THEIR own beds, should it have been HER own bed?</p></li>
<li><p>i included the "too" in the dragonwings passage but i'm not sure about it, i'm second guessing myself now, as it did sound a bit clunky with the too included</p></li>
<li><p>also for the dragonwings passage i put the addition of how he built planes in china after sentence 4, although i don't remember what that sentence was, it was after the first sentence in the second paragraph.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Also, for the one about the equi triangle and the two circles with a common center, i put 1, is that okay? because that was between the required values...right? lol</p>

<p>i put more explanation about his flights for the yep passage</p>

<p>!!! i put 1080 instead of 1008. i hate myself! at least that was a grid in so i lose no points</p>

<p>finally, my layout seems different from everyone else...i had:</p>

<p>essay
writing
verbal
math
then some other stuff
did anyone else have writing and verbal to start right next to each other (that was mean, too much english jams my brain!)</p>

<p>sweet, the last writing skills section, like the first 5 wered?? i was so psyched out by that big time</p>

<p>ahh crap! i messed up that one with the house remodeling big time. that's going to kill me. i think i did poorly on math as well now too.</p>

<p>Wow... I took the SAT I in Hong Kong and I got a completely different paper than you guys as it seems. None of the math questions or reading passages you guys mentioned was in it.</p>

<p>My paper was a lot easier than the practice papers I've been doing.. I think it's probably because the section I find hardest, CR, was much much easier. I had reading passages about the origins of Jazz and Blues, the history of the Polio vaccine (I was VERY lucky because I had read a book on the history of Medicine a week before) and a story about an arrogant captain and a mutiny that took place (paired passages). All 3 passages were very understandable and the sentence completions weren't hard either... even common words such as "lucrative" came up as answers.</p>

<p>My experimental section was math.</p>

<p>My essay was about money and our obsession for it.</p>

<p>Yeah riverfish/ I wrote mine in Canada and thats exactly what I had as well. the order was E/M/M/V/W/M/V/V/M/W wasn't it? I looked for so hard to find what the answers were, but everyone else was saying different stuffs which freaked me out</p>

<p>Hhaha I had the exact same order too... don't worry, they purposely give different papers around the world.</p>

<p>But in general, I'm really proud of that exam. I came out with an air of confidence :D</p>

<p>1.?
2.yes
3. leave as is, i think b/c in the beginning it said the 1st plane broke down
4. yes</p>

<p>Oh well. I thought I bombed it.. :( Math was quite reasonable, however.... congrat anyways..</p>

<p>Blues one was easy tho :D</p>

<p>Don't worry dood, I'm sure it's better than you think. </p>

<p>I'm a bit disappointed in my essay though.. -__-</p>

<p>I think I could've done a better essay agghhh</p>

<p>SODIAO, i'm pretty sure i got the same version as you. I have 2 verbals back to back, and both had the same format in terms of the reading passages, so i'm pretty sure one of those is experimental.</p>

<p>Em.. i'm not sure what equi triangle you are talking about? Is it the one with 2 squares with a circle in the middle. I'm pretty sure the answer is bewteen bigger than 1 but lesser than 2.12.</p>

<p>What was the answer on the 40 cards? I put 36, because I found out that the best guess change on the math is to cross out the obvious wrong ones and from the remaining pick the 2nd biggest answer.</p>

<p>anyways.. what essay were there?</p>

<p>I think i did SO much better this time, because i was actually awake..hehe.. usually i get up at about 7:40, and test starts at 8. But this time, I did a one minute jogging outdoors to wake myself up and drank a donkey kick, and had chocolate. Besides, this time I didn't care, so that probably helped A LOT.</p>

<p>I put "generational gap." Because the father conscious made a note not to use quotation marks, because to me that suggest he is aware by saying siding was modern, he's admitting there's a generational gap. Irony?? Man, I must have ignored that for some reason.. hard call</p>

<p>jojo, i put generational gap also. any other opinions?</p>

<p>I put lack of irony or self-consciousness. The author comments that the word modern was spoken "simply and positively" - without irony or self-consciousness.</p>

<p>sod....</p>

<p>I put planetarium as well.
I also thought it should have been her and not their.
I think I included the too but hard to remember.
As far as adding the sentence...I put it after sent. 11, which was the last sentence in paragraph two, and I think that's right.</p>

<p>sodiao</p>

<ol>
<li><p>It put the same answer.</p></li>
<li><p>"Their" was definitely the wrong part of the sentence.</p></li>
<li><p>I hated that question. If I were writing the essay, I wouldn't have thrown the too in there, but there's really nothing grammatically wrong with it. It is somewhat clunky, but one can also argue that it seems to connect the discussion of the first plane in the beginning of the paragraph to the end of the paragraph.</p></li>
<li><p>I put the additional sentence after sentence 11. Sentence 11 was the last sentence of paragraph two which discussed how Ying Fue was not fazed by the failure of his first two planes. The additional sentence was about how Fue went back to China to build more planes.</p></li>
