<p>fmpak, I thought it was color of the bird</p>

<p>I put idyllic for the judge one but wasn’t sure. Is it for sure quiescent…exacting?</p>

<p>I didnt take it today, so please correct.this consolidated list…you all should do the same for the reading passages like they are doing in the other thread.</p>

<p>Sentence Completions:</p>

<p>1) derivation
2) menacing…audacity
3) posthumously
4) miscellany
5) something…monetary

15)
16)
17)
18)
19)</p>

<p>Oh I remember the sentence It was like even though Sandra O’Connor retired she didn’t live a quiescent life because blank required her to be exacting?</p>

<p>are you sure it was uncomprehending? I put incensed</p>

<p>i didn’t think that make inconsiderable preparations made sense.</p>

<p>Also:</p>

<p>2 brothers playing piano
contrast their approaches
or compete</p>

<p>athletics:
how the 2 critic and former athlete viewed athletics:
athletics shud be considered work Or
colleges dont take advantage to profit income</p>

<p>the subtitle for the bat one:
i put science of echolocation</p>

<p>I don’t think menacing audacity was right. I just don’t see how audacity could fit into the context.</p>

<p>And does anybody remember the answer to the comedian who could barely control his feelings?</p>

<p>menacing…audacity was not right. I a 100% sure</p>

<p>there was a better choice. I can’t remember. Does anyone remember the sentence?</p>

<p>i put incensed as well.</p>

<p>sorry if someone already answered this but what was the sentence context for menacing audacity</p>

<p>The subtitle one was “transcending on human perspective”</p>

<p>The article was not about echolocation but rather the ability of humans to “transcend their perspective” on understanding that bats use “radars and sonars” to see, something that was advanced for us.</p>

<p>i think the answer to the “monetary” one was actually the one that included “extracurricular”, anyone remember the sentence?, i know it was something about the rising cost of schools</p>

<p>Menacing audacity is wrong. It was baleful trepidation. The man’s baleful/deadly stares caused trepidation which is a nervous or baleful feeling. @Crazy the comedian one was unnerved</p>

<p>^Nah it was feasible…monetary. Positive.</p>

<p>Was the answer for a question something like “transition to a new point”? I think it was about the last paragraph of the college athlete one. I don’t remember what the paragraph was about, but I think it was to transition to a new point? Sorry for the vagueness.</p>

<p>I didn’t think the CR was too hard except the quantum physics one made me a bit uneasy!</p>

<p>well the second blank asked for something about costs in addition to education, so why wouldnt it be extracurricular?</p>

<p>i put shift to a new point for the last paragraph. it was between that or to summarize/reiterate</p>

<p>It is feasible monetary. It was something like due to rising college costs going to college isn’t feasible for some because of the monetary burden</p>

<p>So basically, I had 3 right SC answers and I changed them all to incorrect answers. I’m so cool.
Next time, I’m just not gonna go back and check my work.</p>

<p>I put feasible…monetary, baleful…trepidation, and incensed.</p>
