<p>So what'd you guys think? I didn't find it too difficult, but there were a couple here and there that were confusing.</p>
<p>I’d agree with your assessment. The poem that was in iambic verse, and the city/ nature one were a bit time consuming, but overall, I felt that I did pretty well. I took this thing cold, so I’m not going to be mad if I don’t get over 700.</p>
<p>I thought it went pretty okay. I know I definitely got one wrong though. Aiming for above 760.</p>
<p>what does the lit scale usually look like?</p>
<p>It was ok, I feel like I might’ve misinterpreted a couple things though… Like the first poem was a little confusing ( thou art not false but thou art fickle)… Hoping for a 730 or above, but I’d be happy with a 700 or more. I’m kinda worried I got more wrong than I think though, since that’s what’s happened on like every practice test…</p>
<p>I thought the poems were difficult to interpret their overall meaning. First one was about a lost lover I thought? Not sure though. And then the other was like city vs. nature and the other was age vs. youth? Hoping for over a 750 because I know I bombed Biology M.</p>
<p>I don’t really remember the city vs nature one. Which one was that again?</p>
<p>I think I really misinterpreted thou art not false but thou art fickle, I’m not too pleased with my performance overall during that passage/questions. I’d agree that it wasn’t too terrible, just that passage mainly</p>
<p>City vs. Nature was the second poem I think? But it was basically the speaker talking about the “buzz” and “crowds” of a city and how he didn’t like them. I think. I suck at interpreting poetry.</p>
<p>For the first poem there were a couple Q’s I guessed on… last Q, first passage, was the irony that as her love for him cooled down, his passion increased? like 2nd-4th Q’s, did anyone say his love was proportional to her “haughty pride” (I was between that and genuine love, which shows I pretty much didn’t get the passage), his new feeling or whatever was talking about his “dejection”, and 1st Q, was it “ideal lover”?</p>
<p>I interpreted the 1st poem completely differently than that. That was definitely tough.</p>
<p>@ Loveartforever</p>
<p>I said it was proportional to her genuine love. 1st question I put loyal lover. I have no clue if I’m right though.</p>
<p>I think that was the hardest passage tbh. It was one of those where either you get them all right or all wrong.</p>
<p>The rest of the passages weren’t too bad though.</p>
<p>“1st question I put loyal lover.” Wasn’t this past lover? I don’t recall loyal lover as one of the choices</p>
<p>Loyal was one of the choices, but it was definitely wrong. I’m pretty sure the answer was a past lover.</p>
<p>For “the wish” city to nature poem thing, was the answer to one of the questions exchange the honey for city buzz?</p>
<p>No, it was the “fountainhead of pleasures” or whatever. All the answer choices except that one talked about city life, which is what the narrator disliked/criticized.</p>
<p>For that same poem, was the antecedent of “of all meats becomes the most cloying” the honey or the phrase that immediately followed it (this is line 3 of the poem) that talked about something related to the city itself?</p>
<p>I also had ‘past lover’. It wouldn’t be ‘loyal’, since the girl is fickle.</p>

I put “honey”, but I didn’t read the question too closely.</p>
<p>For the question about why the author described two kinds of avarice, was it to emphasize the woman’s petty nature?</p>
<p>I also put honey for that one and I put to emphasize the petty nature of her, yes.</p>
<p>But damn I think I read that first poem too quickly.</p>
<p>What about the question asking what “mean” meant in context? I put ‘small-minded’, but I’m almost 100% sure that’s wrong.</p>
<p>I hope the curve’s good this year. I’m pretty sure I missed at least 3.</p>
<p>I put E for that one</p>
