***October 2013 - Mathematics Level 2***

<p>I was surprised. This test was much much easier than I had expected. I had never taken an SAT subject test before and I did the entire Barron’s Prep book before hand. I’m pretty confident in how I did. What did you guys that have taken subject tests before think of it?</p>

<p>Standardizethis,
Did you take ACT in June? I sent you a question about what date you got results on Special test? was it a letter in mail? I would appreciate if you answer that thread. Thanks.</p>

<p>wait… was that choice A AHAHA</p>

<p>Was the answer A or C…
And what score is 4 skip and 1 wrong?</p>

<p>4 skip and 1 wrong is still an 800</p>

<p>not too off topic but would eraser marks completely mess me up. cause i only erased one but my eraser kinda sucked and yeah…</p>

<p>What was that graph question with the two curvy graphs again?</p>

<p>-f(-x) was the answer</p>

<p>I’m talking about a different question.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember a question that was like this:</p>

<p>F(x)=x^2-1
I. F(x)=f(-x)
II F(x)=-f(x)
III. F(-1)>f(0)</p>

<p>I remember answering with I and III, which seemed like the very obvious answer, but I just realized that III may have said F(-1)<f(0). Or maybe the equation was f(x)=x^2+1. I don’t have any wrong answers so far but I did omit 5, so I’m getting paranoid…</p>

<p>The question was something like 'which of these methods would work to find the solution to f(x) = g(x)?"
I. Plot them and find the x-values of the intersection.
II. Plot them and find the y-values of the interseciton.
III. Plot h(x) = f(x)-g(x) and find the x-intercepts of h(x).</p>

<p>It was 1 and 3</p>

<p>Its 1 because if they intersect at a given x value, then we must have f(x)=g(x),</p>

<p>Its 3 because if you find an x intercept say ‘P’ for h(x), then H(P)=0, which means that 0=f(P)-g(P) and so f(P)=g(P), so that ‘P=x’ is indeed a solution to f(x)=g(x)</p>

<p>Its not 2 because we are trying to find the solution ‘x’ to f(x)=g(x) and if we found the y value that they intersected at this would clearly not be the ‘x’ value.</p>

<p>I don’t think it said find the x intercepts of h(x) for the third option it was worded a bit differently.</p>

<p>oh yeah @boby642 I definitely remember that one and it was I and III. It also said find the zeros for number III but that’s the same thing.</p>

<p>I was thinking of a different question that may have been earlier in the test…</p>

<p>I wonder what the collegeboard is thinking of when its staff sees this thread…so much for the “dont discuss the test problems” “rule” XDD</p>

<p>there’s no problem with discussing the test problem if CB doesn’t keep recycling tests all the time. I mean seriously CB, can’t you just come up with new tests? Hire more staff if you must.</p>

<p>I think the curve was steep.</p>

<p>I am still waiting for my scores…</p>

<p>I only got a 710, I’m retaking in December and taking Physics for first time</p>

<p>I failed and got a 690.</p>

<p>I got an 800 ^_^</p>
