<p>What did you guys think of it?</p>
<p>pretty easy. I know I missed one in the sentence completion question about guilin __fengjing. Otherwise, I felt pretty confident about the reading comprehension and listening, although I might have made a mistake on the latter.</p>
<p>edit: also what do you think the curve will be? on the blue book -4(w/o any from #1-19) is still an 800.</p>
<p>Was that one 以? I thought that’s what I put. I’m not sure, I hope it’s a nice/lenient curve! Btw, I know I got one wrong, the answer was 走快一点 but I put 快走一点。</p>
<p>Also, I remember I wasn’t 100% sure of the 1st question on the reading comprehension (#56 I think), I thought it was like “What is this special event announcement for” or something. Does anyone remember that one? Also, did you get book fair for one of them?</p>
<p>yea it was 以. 56 was a farewell party I think, the student was returning to china. Also yea I got book fair for one of them since the sponsor was a publishing company.</p>
<p>What were the answers for some of the later listening questions that asked what the women ordered and why she didn’t order it? Also, what was the answer to the reading comprehension question about a school/tables? Was that talking about a sale on furniture or was it an auction?</p>
<p>she didn’t order it because she already had pork for lunch. that was a furniture sale, it said tejia</p>
<p>oh and a few more question…hahaha sorry, I just want to know how I did! for the question in the grammar section that was about a person never being late but then he was late today, what did you get? also, what was the answer to the very last question in the reading comprehension about the eyes? Thanks so much!</p>
<p>for that pork chop problem, she originally ordered steak right?</p>
<p>no problem, dont remember exactly the phrase I put down for the late onethough . Last passage was about laohuayan, doing these exercises… will delay its onset. and yea she originally ordered niupai. How do you think you did?</p>
<p>I think I did pretty good overall! Except for a few questions… hopefully the scoring curve will be generous but it probably won’t be since many native speakers take the test</p>
<p>and that question about the sign…it was about not littering and it would most likely be placed in a park right?</p>
<p>yep that’s what I put down</p>
<p>For the late one I think I said 以来…the other options (wei lai, jiang lai, xiang lai) didn’t seem to make sense. What do you guys think? And I also think I did alright, so far still only know I got one wrong.</p>
<p>what do you guys think the scale will be? how many questions do you think people can get wrong but still get above a 700?</p>
<p>I’m not sure, the test seemed pretty similar in difficulty to the one that’s in the official SAT Subject Tests Collegeboard blue book, so it’ll probably be similar to the ones listed there.</p>
<p>how hard do you guys think the curve is going to be? I heard 5 wrong is still an 800…</p>
<p>I’m worried about the curve too. I’m hoping it’s around -5 (or more), that seems pretty reasonable. I guess it all just depends on how everyone does on the test. Did you guys think it was harder than expected or no?</p>
<p>I thought it was pretty much the same in terms of difficulty for listening+sentence completions but easier than bluebook in the reading comprehension section. Pretty sure I didn’t miss any in the reading whereas I missed 3 in the blue book, but then yet again on the actual test I was a lot more focused and checked my work. Though hopefully the scale doesn’t deviate too significantly from that of the blue book(-4=800}, hoping for an 800.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, are you guys native speakers of Chinese or not? I’m half Chinese but go to
Chinese school so I basically count as native (though I’m not sure how colleges view that).</p>
<p>Were you born in the U.S. or China? Pretty sure just attending chinese school doesn’t make you a “native” speaker though.
I learned mostly from speaking with my parents(immigrated over during toddler years), but chinese school did help abit but I stopped going after middle school.</p>
<p>I was born and raised in the U.S. though I’ve been to China quite a few times. Yeah sorry, I’m definitely not a native speaker, I’m more of a heritage speaker I guess. I’m hoping colleges won’t see whatever score we get on the test as “pointless” because we’re already “supposed” to be fluent in Chinese…what do you think?</p>
