<p>Thoughts? Impressions?</p>
<p>I'm not sure about it.
Two of the poems were pretty damn hard and some of the questions for the other passages were confusing as well.</p>
<p>I thought it was pretty hard…when is the embargo lifted so we can discuss?</p>
<p>I don’t know when it’s lifted but I might cancel because i dont want this score to mess up my other 730+ scores.</p>
<p>i was surprised that i actually recognized two of the passages…i didnt realize it right off the bat though lol</p>
<p>that first poem sucked.</p>
<p>The play thing was pretty straightforward though</p>
<p>i didn’t love the questions. thought it was great to see one of my favorite plays used! that made my day!!</p>
<p>i didn’t think it was incredibly hard but there were definitely some tricky ones. i actually read the first poem in english last year so it was good to see that one on there. one of the prose selections messed me up a bit though.</p>
<p>and i <em>think</em> the embargo is lifted?</p>
<p>i thought the questions were easier than the ones in my princeton review practice book… the last two passages gave me the most difficulty, but maybe it was just because i was straining my eyes to focus at that point.</p>
<p>the passage from the yellow wallpaper (about the woman with nervous tendencies) – what did you get for the “EXCEPT” question about why she constantly switched between first person “I” and third person “one”? also, what about the authority of the physician question?</p>
<p>except question i think i said something like she was exaggerating her condition?</p>
<p>authority of physician I said except that her meds were working</p>
<p>i’m really bad at making a list, but can anyone do that? I think it would be good for all not sure of their actual score to see where they might be.</p>
<p>the last poem, what were the last two answers?</p>
<p>hmm, for the yellow wallpaper question about the authority of the physician, i said it was because john was her husband. there was some quote about how, because john the physician was also her husband, “perhaps (although i dare not say it, blahblah i’ll write it down on paper) that is why he does not believe me.” i forget the actual wording.</p>
<p>last two questions: i said the speaker didn’t like “compromise,” and that he was “exhortatory.”</p>
<p>also, what was the question which asked how the player (or maybe it was Rosencrantz) felt about Guildenstern…choices were earnest, ironic, and other things i can’t recall</p>
<p>The test was depressing!
Every passage had some mention of death, old age or despair.</p>
<p>Im not sure how I did, I feel a bit iffy about it.</p>
<p>uhh earnest? also i said that guildenstern wanted plays to reveal truth (for a different question)</p>
<p>yeah the death theme was really overwhelming! i expected at least one cute little poem about glow worms (like in my princeton review practice test). haha</p>
<p>actually i thought earnest was the right answer for one question b/c guildenstern was so earnest (had serious conviction in what he thought was right) throughout the passage.</p>
<p>also, for the childhood memory passage, what was the answer to the first question about the effect of the first sentence?</p>
<p>there was some question about what the player would believe about theatre in general. the options were: conventions of theatre were necessary, something else, something else, drama needs a mix of illusion and reality. i chose the last one. anyone else?</p>
<p>for the childhood memory thing, i think i wrote something about chronology… but i wasn’t too sure about that.</p>
<p>i thought the player question answer was something like you should show the audience what they expect…or maybe im thinking of a different question and that wouldn’t make sense there</p>
<p>also, for the passage about livy running away…
the question that was like: what is the speaker saying about his enemies
and the question with the choices like “confusing values, contradictory feelings, dogmatic tendencies?”</p>
<p>@cloisvelle: i also put the last one.</p>
<p>i hated all of the I, II, III questions.</p>
<p>on ros and guil, i said that II, “paradoxically, life imitates art” was the one NOT included. anyone else?</p>
