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

did you guys get 4 for the grid in for the 64 pints of ice cream?

Yeah I felt that the critical reading was harder as well (and yeah i got 4)

The question of the same definition rarely occurs - vocab question it seemed like the synonym was right but isn’t the last ones always the hardest same thing with the fish who use the beam of light

for the fish beam i put defense/resonate i think, is that right?

@catepillargiraf @Ks1178 what is the wording of fish beam ? what are other options?

The fish shine a beam of light to their enemies and blank their escape. Something like that

@supercalif it was something fishes using bioluminence as a means of protecting themself

It was one of the last questions so defend and facilitate just seem to easy so I picked another one but don’t remeber

*Internet: eager to be part of consensus/want a simpler life/attention-grabbing pronouncement/etc?
=attention grabbing pronouncement

*last question(the function of the last sentence?): place in a new context vs. summary??
I put new context, not completely sure.
*(about the “despair”:slight_smile: prelude of a breakthrough/end of its self?
=prelude of a breakthrough
*(repetition of imperfect writings) a punishment exclusive to zen /etc ? (what are the other options???)
Definitely wasn’t punishment but I can’t remember the answer.
*dispel misconception?
=nvm not sure, was thinking of different passage
science lab:
*a good view = ample/adept/etc?
I put adept, not completely sure.
SS:
*cinematic techniques or plots blah for a specific movie
The one that ended with facing the villain. Followed the Slight Scare - Relief - Big Scare sequence.

@ks1178 @catepillargiraf oh now i remember. thanks! and yes. i also put defense/resonate

i put defensive tho

@catepillargiraf @Ks1178 Was this a Sentence Completion? Was it a question regarding bioluminescence? If so, I remember the second choice being facilitate.

Sentence completion

anyone remmeber author’s eyes or sth in ameoba passage

@lolzsat The eyelashes were misleading, if that’s the question you were referring to.

Also does anyone recall the question where A) was like Grandiose… (some word)

Was escape one of the answers for the fish sentence completion

i remmebr it is like defensive…escape

@Ks1178 May have been escape, facilitate if my memory serves me right.

On the zen passage, did anyone put bold reassessment as an answer? I don’t think it’s to dispel a misconception, as she explicitly states that it’s practiced differently in japan and america and not necessarily erroneously
