<p>I believe the scale scores are determined before administration. The scores are not dependent on the test-takers that day.</p>
<p>I think I put the tight junctions for epithelial cells, but that was just a guess</p>
<p>@santaman1 No, curves are predetermined based on how the College Board assesses the difficulty of the test. If the College Board later decides that a question was unreasonable, they might remove it. But other people’s performance does not really factor that much.</p>
<p>Pretty sure it was cilia for that one</p>
<p>@santaman</p>
<p>I had the same thinking you thinking that cells in the gut would have villi so to maximize surface area, but in the question the answer was tight junctions which I knew was also true but some reason I thought villi was more right.
Then I remembered the answer choices didn’t have villi, it was flagellated cells which is similar structure to villi but are structures used for locomotive. I got tricked like you :(</p>
<p>I think that was one was extracellular matrix.</p>
<p>Anyone remember what they got for the dihybrid cross question?</p>
<p>I don’t believe that the curve is predetermined… How can the college board extrapolate how hard the test is going to be before we even take it? That being said What is a 77 raw?</p>
<p>Which one? There were several.</p>
<p>I think I got the epithilial one wrong. It’s not extracellular matrix.
The answer is tight junctions. Look up intestinal epithelium on wikipedia. </p>
<p>Also, it’s not cilia. Villi are not cilia.</p>
<p>jy, I’m not sure what the process is for SAT II, but for SAT I they use the experimental sections to get a good idea of how difficult a set of questions was.</p>
<p>Ahh I think it was if you cross Tall (hom. dom.) white with dwarf red, how many dwarf pink do you get?</p>
<p>0%, because you can the red flower will always give an R allele, meaning the offspring could only be pink (Rr).</p>

<p>I think I put CO2, do you remember the question?</p>
<p>Well if a experimental section in the sat 1 determines the scaled score, then since there’s no experimental section in sat 2 it is not scaled in a same fashion.</p>
<p>I think it was with the Calvin cycle. Also, the one right after that I put CO2 again… it was like something with producers…</p>
<p>Also for the molecular lab I just don’t remember putting rRNA down… I think for the first one I put down CO… Something</p>
<p>Is it true that the ecology curve is generally more leniant?</p>
<p>For all those curious about their potential score, here is a link to the Official College Board scale for a released Bio M exam: </p>

<p>Scale would only be slightly higher for E. ALSO, refer people to this post when they ask “what would a score of X be?”</p>
<p>Glycogen is stored in liver, insulin and glucagon is produced in pancreas</p>
