October 2011 SAT General Discussion

<p>The experimental CR is the one that had 23 questions.
I think I got 4 no errors.</p>

<p>The art being self-conscious answer or whatever couldn’t have been right because it contained some word with a negative connotation in it, I think…</p>

<p>I’m so ticked because I think I put 60 instead of 3600 for that one question</p>

<ol>
<li>EMPHATIC or FATALISTIC for the tone of the nuclear paragraphs?</li>
</ol>

<p>@xcloudy if theyre gonna super score i dont think it matters, they just look at your bestt</p>

<p>@ Gottahavawawado you remember if it was the 12 completions passage 1 passage 2 and then 2 larger passages?</p>

<p>and also I put emphatic for that one</p>

<p>I put The Art can be seen either as or something.</p>

<p>It said self-reflective so its talking about the art itself methinks</p>

<p>decadence wasnt mentioned in the paragraph but that choice notanengineer had decadence in it</p>

<p>for the art passage what did detour mean?</p>

<p>It was emphatic.</p>

<p>For the essay I used 1984 and the Civil Rights Movement.</p>

<p>I said emphatic for nuclear.</p>

<p>3 errors so far in reading section, 3(i believe i left 1 blank) in math</p>

<p>And one section of MATH WAS hard!!! Especially the last 2 pages. there was 2 circles joined together in the last question of that section. I was like whoa im not even goin to read the question :smiley: I left like 5 blanks on that one!!! the other 2 were easy though.</p>

<p>Also, for Henry David Thoreau/Nature short paragraph, what did the writer think about Thoreau’s works?</p>

<p>I said e for detour, something about it being different from real life.</p>

<p>detour meant “it can guide you through or life” or “art is different than everyday life”
I don’t remember which one I picked</p>

<p>Was self admonition one?</p>

<p>I answered Emphatic for the nuclear power one. justin, I thought it was 12 SC’s, one passage w/5 questions, then another passage w/7 questions. Or something along those lines.</p>

<p>For the Thoreau one I put that his work was long and exhaustive to read, but I was stuck between that and boring. D: I put that the detour shows that art is different from every day life.</p>

<p>@burgerking316
I put stimulating/controversial, but I was stuck between the same two that you were. </p>

<p>I felt that this SAT was really hard. CR is normally my best section (I got a 770 last time), but I wasn’t even sure about some of them on this one. </p>

<p>And the math section? Ugh.</p>

<p>Does anyone else think that there’s going to be a pretty generous curve in all areas this year? Especially math…</p>
