Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>I'm assuming you're pretty good.
I really need to know what you put for these:</p>

<ol>
<li>
the one about the hermandsver school one:
Fleece said the ideas were...
a) independent of human consciousness
or b) presupposed the instinctual?</li>
</ol>

<p>i said B because Fleece specifically says that ideas were not like music - they existed much before. what do you think?</p>

<ol>
<li>caustic or vehement for the nuclear passage?</li>
<li>handling or execution for the biographical baker passage?</li>
</ol>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Scores haven’t come out yet… How can anyone know if he/she scored an 800…</p>

3

<p>haha, cortana, i know
i’m referring to people that have gotten an 800 in the past.</p>

4

<p>I got ideas are deliberate/thought out well ahead of time.</p>

<ol>
<li>definitely vehement</li>
<li>handling because it implies care/gentleness.</li>
</ol>

<p>I got a 740 last time. Is that good enough for you?</p>

5

<p>if anyone who got an 800 in CR in the past took this SAT then i’ll give up my dog</p>

6

<p>800 in CR seems far more difficult than a 800 in Math.</p>

7

<p>I didn’t even study for the reading (or any of it, really) and I got a 740 on CR. Abysmal math score though, 600! And I’m in honors and everything! That SAT math just eludes me.</p>

8

<p>Well I didn’t study last time and got a 740 and 640 but I have completely average math skills.</p>

9

<p>i got a 770 in January…
really looking for an 800 scorer…</p>

10

<p>800 scorers are no better than anyone over a 720 seeing as these questions are fairly subjective and could be argued substantively either way. Someone with could simply have better luck than someone with a 740 with no difference in skill or knowledge.</p>

<p>Just saying. CR isn’t objective in my view.</p>

11

<p>thanks for your views, radiohead.
i agree to a certain extent, though not to such an extreme
i believe an 800 scorer is as skilled as a 750 scorer, maybe
not a 720 scorer. </p>

<p>still, the 800 name just makes me trust you that much more.
i don’t mean to exclude people.
i just want to know ASAP what the answers are to these questions…
i don’t want to wait for snail mail QAS…</p>

12

<p>800>anything else thats it.</p>

13

<p>I was using hyperbole there. Statistically, chances are that someone with an 800 knows far more than someone with a 720. However, the correlation between higher score and higher reading comprehension when you get over a 700 goes down dramatically compared to the other sections.</p>

14

<p>I got an 800 in writing in January… mediocre essay, 80/80 MC lol</p>

15

<p>Cr in my mind doesn’t represent comprehension or analytical skills. The questions are too open. For every question I could pick two answers and argue why for each. How is thinking the same way as ets possessing knowledge? It’s simply a combination of luck and luck. At my high school we are encouraged to take views that appear impossible to support and then prove their validity. This in my opinion is what makes someone a skilled reader, writer, and thinker. But on the sat it’s one way or the highway. I scored in the 600’s on the cr sat but got a 36 on the act reading. I’m also a very strong English student.
In response to your statement the difference between those who score between 600 and 800 is slim.</p>

16

<p>I agree with strat. But it’s hard to make completely objective questions that are challenging.</p>

17

<p>I scored 780 in March and I said</p>

<p>Independent
Vehement
Handling</p>

18

<p>I put (B) for #1</p>

<p>Coming from a 730-770CR…</p>

19

<p>Did anyone else put “proposal” for the baker/“handling” one?? I thought that b/c it was a introduction to a biography, she would be proposing the life and views or whatever of the person. Or is that just completely wrong?</p>

20

<p>750 CR</p>

<p>The answer that said that ideas are independent of humans. (it was striahgt from the passage)
Vehement (no question)
Handling</p>
