****November 2013 SAT Thread***

<p>TexasApex, you are the epitome of the current deplorable behavior of American teenagers. First off, I do not comprehend the term “■■■■■”, and believe that such a word connotes bigotry and maliciousness. I am deeply, deeply offended. I am just a concerned citizen that wants to clarify whether the dialectic of SAT questions is legal.</p>

<p>Cheers,

<p>Ahh, thanks westernblotf for clarifying my dilemma. I can now go to sleep peacefully.</p>

<p>Gracias,

<p>Was “largess…perquisites” the last sentence completion in the section with 8 sentence completions?</p>

<p>I have to assume that that easier one was the real one. I think the one with the geese, the other one I got was quite difficult.</p>

<p>Just remembered another question. Anyone remember that math question with mexico that asked about the difference in millions of dollars it made between 2000 and 2007? I put 18 but im sure thats wrong. I think it was either that or 120.</p>

<p>I put 200 million</p>

<p>I put 200 million too</p>

<p>Yeah it was 200 million. You can use a proportion. </p>

<p>3% of the world market increased by 6 million (3/6) (1/2), so
100% of the world market increased by 200 million (100/200) (1/2)</p>

<p>@DreamsofNewHaven
Yes it was largess - perquisites</p>

<p>does anyone remember the exact numbers for the systems of equations grid in</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the vocab question with “spurious” as one of the answer choices? What was the correct answer?</p>

<p>spurious was the right answer
it was something with histrionic and others</p>

<p>Did anyone have the passage with Louisa May Alcott and her being ambidextrous and such? I had experimental CR tho.
Also here are the questions i remember:
carping [vocab]
green chemistry question about something-grave and something-gate was more widely used or something
reservations meant hinderances for the comparing two long passages
chefs slicing fruit was wrong for Writing error id [i think]
last question on paragraph improvement [soda food coloring] was inserting the sentence that said natural dye that last longer should be used</p>

<p>yballer, for the last paragraph improvement about natural dye did that answer choice begin with “in the end … natural dye coloring…”</p>

<p>Oh this is really strange, I barely recognise any questions from my paper here.

  1. oh and guys, people may get different experimental sections so that doesn’t prove anything
  2. Did anyone get the paper with the CR passage about art and perception? There was an actual printed picture in it of a visual illusion duck/rabbit. (I suspect it to be experimental because critical reading never has pictures…)</p>

<p>I had a doubt in one of the CR sentence questions. There was one which went something to the tune of “Admiring critics ------ (someone’s) individualism (something something) commercial …------ but impossible”
Yeah, I know that’s kinda vague. I think the options were like “heralded…indiosyncrasies” or “presaged…idk something”</p>

<p>Man, I really hope it went okay…it’s my second attempt… (First 2240) :|</p>

<p>From the looks of it I believe there were 3 different tests. When I tried to compare answers with my friends they all had different passages. One had a passage on George Washington, another a pic of a duck and me the green chemistry/star wars passage. So I was wondering, for the one of the math question it asked how many time does it intersect a)none b)one c)two d)three e)four I put down the answer one. Another question was the long answer. For the last question for the grid in, I got 192. Another grid in question was which of the x= f(x)=g(x)=(x) something like that and had a chart that stated what x will equal to. I put the answer six for that one. I don’t think Im right on this but there was a question on a combination of 6 and 5. Was the multiple choice answer 30? Also the baby question was the answer choice 60/7s?</p>

<p>@azny123,
a) It crossed 4 times.
b) 192 is correct
c) I think x was 3? I’m not quite sure if that was the answer but I know I got it right.
d) it was babies=(1/7)s because that was the rate of babies, every 7 seconds 1 baby is born so 1/7(7)=1.</p>

<p>@sgtweed
a) thought it only crossed once it was like f(x)-1
c) Im pretty sure it was either 6 or 7 tried everything it fit right in. The grid in question right?
btw what did you get for the coin grid in question? 1.75? like what is the value of the largest coin</p>

<p>@azny123,
a) since it was f(x)-1, it was how many times did the graph of that function touch the line y=1, which was 4. Or you could shift the graph down 1 unit and see how many times that graph touched the x-axis, also 4.
c) The one I was thinking about wasn’t a grid in question, I don’t remember a grid in question like that.
yeah I got 1.75 for the large coin value</p>
