@Cheesusrice wrong, the top and bottoms sides were given to be parallel, so the height is the same. It was a trapezoid, not a parallelogram, so the run was opposite signs, with the rise being the same, so the slopes were the same number with different signs.
@splashzone10 Yeah, that would be okay. If you need to do subject tests, you may want to do those in November.
can anyone estimate the scores for 2 wrong in grid ins and 1 omit for math?
and do you guys usually get essay scores that are higher than you expect or lower than you expect (from previous tests)
Was the sinous one no error or not?
Was the curtain and blinds one no error or not?
@Kylemcgrogan Darn, I really didn’t think of them being parallel despite them telling me that they both have a slope of 0. What do you think the curve would be if you miss 1 grid in?
for the last grid in question (.288 one) was it integer only?
@Cheesusrice Well, curves differ every time as you know, but I would say 1 missed grid in, which is equivalent to 1 omit, would yield a 780-760. In january I missed 2 MC and got a 740.
@Cheesusrice I think it will be a 780, but perhaps an 800. 25% of the time, miss one is equivalent to an 800.
I hope everyone did bad on that question so we can get 800’s.(LOL) Also was the section with the autobiographical passage an experimental or not? It had a 2 line poem in the middle of the passage and the second half of the passage can be only understood by literature majors(imo).
for the last grid in question (.288 one) was it integer only?
@Cheesusrice The question actually stated that the sides were equal (it said AB=CD) and then said that the top line was shorter than the bottom line(BC < CD). Thus, the slopes of AB and CD would have to be the same but one would be positive and one would be negative. An opposite reciprocal slope (3/5) would mean that the angle of ABC and BCD would not be equal, which is untrue if AB and CD are equal length
@Cheesusrice I’m pretty sure that the curves are determined before hand using experimental sections on previous tests.
And yeah, I don’t remember a reading section like that, so it was probably experimental. Weird format too.
@awesomesaucee Yeah but in the context of the entire passage, that one paragraph itself probably wasn’t intended for the reader to just understand the rationale of the mother’s actions. It was meant to transition the passage from personal anecdotes to the origins of her mother’s philosophy (which was Zen), so that the author could discuss about Zen in her passage. Origins doesn’t have to be something historical. It’s simply a source that something else derives from.

Yeah the last one specifically said integer.
@grunterbaum1 It was integers only. 288/1000 then divide it by two until the denominator is under 500. So, 36/72/108 would be the answers.
@grunterbaum1
I put no error for sinuous
Curtain and blinds was error, because “between” should always be paired with “and”, not “or”
Yes, it was integer only. I put 72
Did you guys put poetic or sophisticated for the one about the dancing planets?
And omnious or genuine confusion for the internet passage?
