<p>This thread is ONLY meant for the discussion of the questions and answers on the International SAT!</p>
<p>Good paper, I guess. Writing wasn't as good; maybe because I got an experimental writing.</p>
<p>EDIT: Looks like the US guys have started discussing questions, so I think that we can too.</p>
<p>Overall the test was good, not hard and not easy just good.</p>
<p>I also had a writing experimental</p>
<p>Ah nice! Which one do you reckon was the experimental? Section 2 or Section 6?</p>
<p>Do a remember a writing passage section about finding treasures on the beach? Or was it the other one?</p>
<p>Anyways, I found Math easy. Got two 8’s in the free-responses. CR was surprisingly … good :)</p>
<p>Math was easy, definitely! So you know what that means the curve is gonna be harsh prob -1= 770 
</p>
<p>Cr was good except for the passage in the last CR section…ooh how i hated it. I could not muster any amount of interest in such a boring topic. </p>
<p>I think the first writing section is experimental</p>
<p>Yes. The Math curve’s going to be really harsh.</p>
<p>Haha the Politics one? I actually liked that one 
Because the subject matter interested me.</p>
<p>Peanut guy hahaha. I think the uses-of-peanuts one was better rather than the beach-treasure one.</p>
<p>Which essay did you get? I filled up two whole pages and we all know (or others on CC) say that length of essay is directly proportional to the score. Oh well.</p>
<p>It’s surprising no other internationals are discussing the test :eek:</p>
<p>FYI this test was the October 2010 international test - <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/1011254-october-2010-international-sat-2.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/1011254-october-2010-international-sat-2.html</a></p>
<p>I know. But their thread doesn’t have all the answers and such stuff :p</p>
<p>And it’s more fun to have one’s own perspective on things :D</p>
<p>hahaha true! where are the other international students "/ ? we cannot be the only two who took it today lol</p>
<p>I took it today!
CR was definitely the hardest part. The last section…meh. Boring.</p>
<p>Writing was doable, math was freaking easy. Also got 2 8s in the math grid in. </p>
<p>Hoping and praying for a 2300+</p>
<p>What if we are? :eek:
hahahaha :D</p>
<p>So, what are the other questions you remember?</p>
<p>The typist one? 13.333333?</p>
<p>
Me too :o
[10 char]</p>
<p>Typist? Which one?</p>
<p>Math Section? Last question. I am sure it wasn’t an experimental section. The typist writes half a report at 10 pages/day and the other half at 20 pages/day.</p>
<p>^the one about the average rate for the books.</p>
<p>Also got two 8’s and 13.3333 for that one.</p>
<p>Hoping for a 2100+</p>
<p>Err… For example, it takes 2 days for the first half, 2 days for the second.</p>
<p>So, 20 pages+40pages
=60 pages</p>
<p>60/4 = 15</p>
<p>Nooooo.
Suppose the document’s length is 2x.
Therefore, x is completed at the rate of 10 pages/day.
therefore, it is completed in x/10 days.
Similarly, other x part is completed in x/20 days.</p>
<p>So … total time taken = x/10 + x/20 = 3x/20 days</p>
<p>Now, average rate = total length/total time = 2x/(3x/20) = 40/3 = 13.3333</p>
<p>****? I stand corrected.</p>
<p>So, any other questions you would like to discuss?</p>
<p>The funny thing was that when i saw 15 i thought: it can’t be this simple. Oh well, i guess i can still hope that -1 = 800 :P</p>
<p>Haha I did the same thing. Saw the 15 and thought that it couldn’t be that simple, being the last question. So I did some math and arrived at 40/3 which was the same as 13 1/3, so it’s good :)</p>
