***October 2015 SAT (US Only) Thread***

I said the paradox came from the ambivalence of teaching profession… anyone else? Also what about explicit vs implicit

does the sat approve of starting sentences with but

Why is it not genuine confusion? I think ominous is a bit too strong cuz he never explicitly says that its a bad thing. He was along of the lines of “OMG did my way of thinking change?” That to me sounds like he was confused about what was actually happening to him

Also btw was it emphatic or analytical? Everywhere I’ve been including CC so far has been a 50/50 debate on that one

Counterpart means corresponding things in another place

I had transformation @gettingdat2400

Japanese Zen, the students had to keep copying the letter until they reached perfection. what was the answer??

@yolomaster98 He’s confused but not genuinely confused because he’s hinting that there may be a deeper explanation. I don’t think ominous is too strong because the traditional way of thinking is being changed

@d00mbuggy Yes.

The explicit one is the answer with “subsided” in it. I can’t remember @jsweets17

@BornPrep Same…

Can someone compile the answers?

Did I have a different test? I took my test with acommodations today, and I don’t think I had any of the questions you guys are discussing. Ex: Our essay question was along the lines of “Should achievements be judged on their benefits to others?” while yours seems to be “Should young people focus on one thing?”.

Anyone who had this test, please call me in your thread response.

I thought counterparts didn’t work since volcanoes are being compared to volcanoes instead of something slightly similar with the same function

@collegeinspired mine was about whether the leader should compromise

@grparker21 but he doesn’t really indicate that its ominous? Like he is in a state of confusion, but nowhere in his quote does it indicate its a bad thing to happen. The passage itself indicates that, but we can’t assume he is thinking the same way right? U see where I’m getting at?

What were the rest of the choices for question that included genuine confusion and ominous __?

There are two prompts. For east and west @collegeinspired

@yolomaster98 I see your point, but I still think there was enough evidence since he was a lit major and now he can’t even focus on reading, so it is a kind of ominous force which caused that transformation

Underpinning means foundational ideas. It’s not relevant at all though

@grparker21 Yea I was really torn over with that one. I guess we will see. Praying that I got it right for selfish reasons lol…
