November 2010 SAT - Critical Reading

<p>^I got no SC wrong last time. This time i got at least 3 SC wrong. lol what the ****</p>

<p>LOL Oct’s SC was frigging hard. This one’s was SO easy! DH PWNED IT SO BAD</p>

<p>a question for those who had deception/quantum physics one: Does anyone recall the answer for what does “physical intuition” mean in quantum physics passage?</p>

<p>Just a guess, but I think it was like: the ability to visualize stuff?</p>

<p>no i dont remember the negligible and digression questions…
anyone know the context of those?</p>

<p>and SC for october was EXTREMELY easy compared to NOvember, i thought…
but reading questions…ahh idk…
i think the chinese painter and college board game passages was easiest…what y’all think?</p>

<p>btw, what was the quantum physics passage??? i dont remember that one…</p>

<p>was it something like sensory image or not??</p>

<p>Lol College board games.</p>

<p>COLLEGEBOARD games HAHHAA</p>

<p>wow im weird</p>

<p>No you are not. CrzyGmer i don’t think those words appeared on our test.</p>

<p>LMAO gensis.
*hands down. true collegeboard nerd right here. ;))</p>

<p>Does anybody remember the context for abashed?</p>

<p>Hey CrzyGmer, do you remember the SC answer to the one about the environment + ecologist one? I think it was the very last SC and there were two blanks and the meaning of the sentence was that people should leave the environment unchanged…</p>

<p>I don’t see why it couldn’t have been innovative styles. Didn’t it make mention of the crazy wild styles he needed to do to stay on top or something like that? Hmm, I don’t know. “spanned many eras” was the obvious answer but if it’s the right one I am really bitter about that question!!</p>

<p>anyone know the answer for “physical intuition” on quantum physics passage???</p>

<p>my reasoning against “spanned many eras” is that it spanned exactly TWO eras with a long break inbetween. it would have been correct if it had simply said “was a long career”. I’m probably wrong though and that’s what ****es me off.</p>

<p>What were the answers for physical intuition???</p>

<p>@DoinSchool: Agreed. I believe the second sentence explicitly stated the “innovative” dance styles and that his styles were always changing. I also put variety of dance styles rather than spanning multiple eras, because he didn’t span MULTIPLE, he only influenced them since he was in retirement for longer than he was a dancer.</p>

<p>Well I’m glad at least someone agrees for me…We at least have a chance :frowning: . I need that question, because I"m pretty sure I got the langurous one wrong. does anyone remember the other answer choices for that question? I think I recall “wistful”? Could be wrong. I mostly just remember seeing langurous and another word which I had a hunch about as the answers I had narrowed down, but chose the other one. Luckily I guessed correctly on miscellany through the process of elimination</p>

<p>@DoinSchool: I know a fairly good amount of people who put variety of dance styles too. I still hold firm that it is the correct answer, the spanning multiple eras seems a little extrapolated to be correct on the SAT.
And I think wistful was another option for that question, but the correct answer was languorous.</p>

<p>for the chinese artist/calligraphy passage, does anyone remember the other answer choices to the “previously had the urge to create art” question?</p>

<p>i feel like one of my answers for that passage was something like “she felt frustrated at the fact that she had to unravel her embroidery”…did anyone get that?</p>
