October 2011 SAT General Discussion

<p>

Sorry for what? Narrator didn’t do anything but was disappointed that his new roommate would never trust him/respect him enough to be friends.</p>

<p>what about the disillusionment/pride one. i picked pride, but i think it could verily be disillusionment?</p>

<p>@xcloudy a lot of college superscore your scores so you might not wanna do thatt if you improved in other sections</p>

<p>Also there was one section where I got mercurial and fickle as answers within 2 questions of each other. And prevaricator and pride.</p>

<p>This was my first time taking the SAT and I don’t know the curves, so I was just wondering what all of you grizzled veterans thought about it.</p>

<p>Were the curves on CR, math, and writing good, medium, or bad?</p>

<p>Yes it’s handling and recondite. I don’t remember disappointment, however.</p>

<p>for the roommate passage, i initially put paranoia but then changed it to pride. because he goes on to talk about how there’s “a lot of brains” in his head.
did anyone else say that…or did i overthink</p>

<p>it was just 96</p>

<p>Cr (fairly hard):
-2 800
-3 800
-4 780
-5 760
-6 740</p>

<p>M (easy-medium):
-1 780
-2 760</p>

<p>paranoia and pride were seperate questions</p>

<p>the pride question is different. the answer was pride.</p>

<p>This one was harder than average</p>

<p>I said pride because he thought he was intelligent because his forehead was big. Not disillusionment.</p>

<p>Human complexities was at the end of the biographer passage, about what the biographer really wanted to capture. She said she wanted to capture her “strengths and weaknesses” etc.</p>

<p>What was the answer to the pollution question (#19)</p>

<p>@pistacio i think you got your characters confused</p>

<p>Is the experimental always the last one? Cause I had four readings… And my last one was writing. Or is experimental nine. I thought the math section was horrible. But I’m bad at math so… But I feel like it was harder than the one in June. The other two were average to me.</p>

<p>so it was pride?</p>

<p>What was the pride question?</p>

<p>pistacio, pride and paranoia weren’t options to the same question.</p>

<p>Pride was correct to one question, and so was paranoia.</p>

<p>you sure it was pride and not disillusionment?</p>
