i think it was “clothes are put” because the subject would remain the same throughout the sentence. putting clothes implies a subject different from the second clause of the sentence</p>
<p>Will someone post a compilation of all the writing and critical reading answers they remember from the test? @Max I believe “clothes are put” was the correct answer but I don’t recall all the answer choices so I’m not certain.</p>
<p>For the writing section, how many no errors did everybody put? I had around 2 or 3: the question beginning with “presumed” is all that I can remember but all my friends told me that there was an idiomatic error in that one.</p>
<p>I’m nervous about the writing curve on this year’s administration because on the PSAT 2013 practice booklet, the curve was: 80, 76, 71, 70, which are among the largest discrepancies I’ve seen in the upper scores from any previous administrations. Will the curve be similar?</p>
<p>What was the answer to the question “which of the following would the author of passage 2 respond to the quote ‘…’”? It was the double short passages about the campus free speech zones.</p>
<p>@nightlock
the question with presumed was A because “presumed that it was extinct until [year]” should just be “presumed extinct” or “Presumed to be extinct”. the writing curve is generally bad because there are very few questions compared to the rest of the sections.</p>
<p>If you post some of the choices, I’ll be able to help you out but I don’t remember any choices off the top of my head.</p>
<p>I think that the magazine folding questions was that prescience… merited, since the guy accurately predicts that the magazine would cease operation. Prescience means foreknowledge and merited means accredit him. </p>
<p>Also, for the ones who say presumed was an idiomatic error, I do think that "Presumed that it was extinct until 1968, " makes complete sense; presumed can have several different idiomatic uses. Personally I put NE for that one but correct me if i’m wrong.</p>
<p>what did everyone get for the personification question in manhattan, india passage? i got guilt and uneasiness which was choice A</p>
<p>I see theocdone, thanks. That clears up some of my confusion. I think I realistically missed 2-4 on the writing section.</p>
<p>@exeterandover, it was definitely A because the passage talked about how the “divorce papers stared accusingly? at her.”</p>
<p>it was something like that wasnt the entire truth of what it meant</p>
<p>@exeterandover i got B i think, i cant remember the choices though</p>
<p>for “What was the answer to the question “which of the following would the author of passage 2 respond to the quote ‘…’”? It was the double short passages about the campus free speech zones.”
it was the answer that said somethign about his definition not reporting the entire truth</p>
<p>@shubbam97: the prescient…merited one is definitely correct because he knew beforehand or had foreknowledge of the event and when it became a reality, he was proven correct (merited)
If very “iffy” about the presumed one as well but I guess we’ll have to endure until December.</p>
<p>for the crayon coloring kit, I got 3 because I thought it was asking for how many children got both a crayon coloring kit and … so it would be 9/3 = 3.</p>
<p>Hi</p>
<p>what do u think about the quote and oprah book club’s question?</p>
<p>and how passage 2 would think of the definition of free speech in passage 1?</p>
<p>and the grammar question with “as micromanagers (?) become increasingly…”?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>@needagoodscore I definitely agree. I put the not reporting the entire truth as well</p>
<p>@needagoodscore: that should be correct. They are trying to conceal a hidden motive which was something similar to “stopping the protests” rather than simply limiting them to certain areas.</p>
<p>@hanapiano i think the oprah one was how it got so many more people to read</p>
