November 2012 International SAT1 Discussion Thread

<p>“The era of Greek tyrants, who ruled from about XX A.D to XX A.D, marked a turning point…”</p>

<p>Do you guys remember this writing question?</p>

<p>^ what was the paragraph about in your writing section? was it the coffee?
then, that means that the UN writing question was from the experimental section.</p>

<p>Yes the paragraph improvement was about coffee…and I had a experimental reading</p>

<p>@ hopingforbetter Yepp… I had that question too… The UN delegate one is about someone who “will present” puppet show earlier this year.</p>

<p>the UN question was a hard one because there was a trap. the sentence told us that it was a past tense in the VERY END of the sentence. “delegate to UN” makes sense because we can not assume that all delegates are from the UN. sometimes, people from outside of the UN comes to UN for a meeting. the answer is “will present” because in the it says earlier this year or something like that.</p>

<p>Okay, I remember now…its “will present”…It shouldn’t be in future tense because later in the sentence you get “earlier this year” which indicates past.</p>

<p>How was the writing section? Is it hard? I answered all the questions out of which two to four questions scared me. Does this mean that I’m okay with this section or I made many mistakes without actually noticing the questions?</p>

<p>My essay was one and a half page length(a little more) with an intro, two bodies and a conclusion.</p>

<p>What did you choose for the monkey one? The tricky part was “the monkey was able to communicate through body language”. Is “communicate through” grammatically correct?</p>

<p>@shuffling
that one was about chimpanzee, and the sentence was right. There are 2 E in this section</p>

<p>@Userbame: “İ remember last one as 7.My sequence was 7-5-4 and they all add up to 16 in every 3 consecutive box.Am ı wrong?
7-5-4-7-5-4”</p>

<p>I also want to know this. Anyone?</p>

<p>I also put down 7 for that question. It was a smart question.</p>

<p>That is 7 guys. Don’t worry about that. I’m very sure because I’m very good in math(expecting 800).</p>

<p>Thanks 4 clarifying that.Somebody told 6 so i was in doubt.</p>

<p>Yes it is 7. I did it using 3 and 6 and got the same so don’t worry.</p>

<p>By the way guys, can you post any math hard question that you remember? I want to make sure I just got 2 wrongs… Would be ugly to find out I screw in more.</p>

<p>Already mentioned:</p>

<ol>
<li>Rectangular with T coordinate</li>
<li>Balloons</li>
<li>x^2 and y=4 (shaded region) (I got this wrong)</li>
<li>Intersection with y=1 and |f(x)| (I got this wrong)</li>
</ol>

<p>Anyone remember of more? </p>

<p>PS: Fort the ones who got writing or reading as experimental</p>

<p>Ohhh and what about the last Identifying Errors question?</p>

<p>It was this one: “The information of movies in the newspapers and catalogs in magazines ARE better presented in the online catalog” or something like that</p>

<p>I put “are” because Information is singular, but I don’t know if it’s okay.</p>

<p>@ guille19
I rmb the question was in the experimental one, but you chose the right answer.</p>

<p>I got reading as an experimental. So I guess I got it correct :stuck_out_tongue:
Yay thank you.</p>

<p>Oh guys! I just found out that the SAT Test we did is the SAME as the American June/2008 SAT test…</p>

<p>Right now I’m trying to find out the “curve” they did for this test…</p>

<p>CollegeBoard really doesn’t know what else to get up his sleeve, huh?
I hope the curve for this was a really good one…</p>

<p>@guille19 Since information is singular it should actually be “is”, not “are”.
“The information of movies in the newspapers and catalogs in magazines IS better presented in the online catalog”</p>
