October 2010 CR SAT Thread

<p>I think the Trojan War question was rather lucid.</p>

<p>He says in the last line something like “It remains a completely plausible model- with no evidence proving against it”.</p>

<p>Plausible: having an appearance of truth or reason; seemingly worthy of approval or acceptance; credible; believable</p>

<p>It seems clear enough to me that he was implying that it DID occur.</p>

<p>BTW:<br>
Thoughts on what a …
61
62
and 63 will be</p>

<p>@overrated - probably 580-600</p>

<p>I mean, both make sense, but i think it had more to do with cure than invigoration.</p>

<p>err i think the consensus has already leaned towards antidote.
^ sadly.</p>

<p>@jersey kid, nononono it was not worded that way. It was like, plausible yet without proof.</p>

<p>@jersey -</p>

<p>61 - 750
62 - 760
63 - 780</p>

<p>hoping for a nice curve</p>

<p>Did people debate more about the homer v archeological remains v greek history question? Because I still think he focused more on the walls, and I don’t really believe that homer’s works would be considered evidence it happened</p>

<p>

Does the passage actually say it got his blood rushing and all that? I think it just calmed him.</p>

<p>Did people debate more about the homer v archeological remains v greek history question? Because I still think he focused more on the walls, and I don’t really believe that homer’s works would be considered evidence it happened </p>

<p>^</p>

<p>homer’s works aren’t considered evidence. That’s the authors point, that thuc isn’t using real evidence.</p>

<p>but they are what thuc. relied upon, so homer is the answer.</p>

<p>@ angelin</p>

<p>I debated this question with myself for a long time. However, in the end, I chose Homer bc the paragraph started with “Out of Homer, Thucydides blah blah blah”.</p>

<p>I could be dead wrong though</p>

<p>@pkm yes it did say “out of homer came thucidides …”</p>

<p>antidote-stimulant question: does anyone remember the wording of the question?</p>

<p>it was like the log road acted as a _ for the author?</p>

<p>Alright i got an explanation for the antidote vs stimulant question. Stimulant is too general, antidote fits the bill more specifically.</p>

<p>I dont remember but basically the short passages just describes the man walking up the man as a panecea for all his problems.</p>

<p>the man walks up the man. =)</p>

<p>we’ve over debated at this point. we should all stop arguing and wait until the 28th. the test was very ambiguous and hopefully the CB reads our posts (i doubt they do) and realizes looking at the raw scores that the test was way to equivocal and therefore needs to have a very lenient curve.</p>

<p>can’t someone email this link for the thread to college board ?so they actually look at how hard we thought the test was and they will have a lenient curve.</p>

<p>^ummm nooo…didn’t you pay attention to what the proctor said in the beginning? NO DISCUSSION OF TEST QUESTIONS</p>

<p>Well, to those two^^, it’s NOT a good thing to do that, since you signed something saying you were NOT supposed to discuss test answers at any time. If you want to send this thread to CC, it’s just like going on a killing spree and going to the police office’s door and asking them what to do with the bodies.</p>
