October 2010 Writing SAT thread

<p>Lets discuss the answers here(after the time difference is done away with of course)! Everyone game?</p>

<p>I'll start.Since many students have not yet taken the test,I'll just ask if any of you got WR experimental,and if so,did you notice that 2 of the questions had 2 same answer choices in each?</p>

<p>You already took the test?</p>

<p>Yes.10 char.</p>

<p>W was confusing! I was so upset after CR section 9 that I completely sat on section 10. Retaaaaaaaaaakes</p>

<p>Wr was really confusing=( 35*2+14=84 questions=(</p>

<p>I had the CR experimental. That was exhausting! 2 CRs (one after another), then a math (which I’m horrible at) and then the worst CR that could have ever possibly been devised.</p>

<p>there someone in as bad a condition as me…damn exactly too CRS then Math and then the worlds most murderous cR again</p>

<p>The last CR section ruined my 10 min WR section too. Predictions? Also, I’m really confused about the curve. A lot of people say that it’s already been made and others say that they wait until they correct everyone’s test this year and then make it.
Can someone clarify?</p>

<p>its made already as far as i noe</p>

<p>I found the 10 minute writing section fairly easy.No doubts at all,unlike the other two.</p>

<p>i think the result comes out on Oct 29? can any1 confirm that?</p>

<p>Omg. I got WR exp! I hated the WR section this time. There were like 3 questions that I thought were really confusing and ambiguous. Other than that, I got an easy essay prompt and I thought I did fairly well on CR, so I’m happy :P</p>

<p>Yes, 29th. 28th in America I think. Any predictions? I know i didn’t exceed 700 for CR and possibly WR.</p>

<p>the essay prompt was too easy. i used only one example. i didnt practice for essay previously, so writing 1.5 pages was unbelievably challenging.</p>

<p>No predictions for me.
The essay was surprisingly easy.
I filled in the two pages.Although I made up a few things.(what,i’ll tell later,once this time difference thing is over,and of course,if anyone’s still interested in knowing,which I doubt they’d be,but I’ll probably do it just to increase my post count :wink: )</p>

<p>hi5 perfectpixie. lol. i made up a bunch of stuff as well in my essay. i talked about Obama’s father’s struggle …its really very funny :)</p>

<p>i only hope that the essay readers share my sense of humor. :p</p>

<p>tpainnopain-careful with that info!</p>

<p>@perfectpixie: I think I know which question you say had two same choices - I thought the same too initially, but after careful reading I found they were different.</p>

<p>I don’t think I can offer more information until after the embargo has been lifted though.</p>

<p>Is it bad that my words were kind of small and compact? Also, my pencil gave out a little bit at the end of my essay because I didn’t have time to sharpen it. As a result, my words were still legible, but lighter than the ones at the beginning of my essay. Would this mean that my words won’t be clear on the scanned version?</p>
