<p>@collegepursuit I put down blockbuster doesn’t come from top down plans as the passage stated that the creators did not intend a creation to be a blockbuster.</p>

<p>@canunot‌
I agree with you.</p>

<p>The blockbuster doesn’t come from top-down plans because the directors of those movies don’t care about making the most amount of money</p>

<p>@APsooof As far as I know, they’re the exact same test. Check the thread for the Nov. 2013 test on CC</p>

<p>My two main contrary ideas:</p>

<p>1) refrigerator as - illustrative example to clarify a claim vs. logical demonstration of a theoretical point
An example that clarifies the claim gives some sort of insight into the claim – the refrigerator example doesn’t really give any new insight imo, but it a grounded analogy (ie. logical demonstration) of the idea that food represents nationality (theoretical point). Thus, I put logical demonstration.</p>

<p>2) which idea is supported by both passages? blockbusters are major goal vs. sequels are for profit
the first passage explicitly stated in its posing question, “why, then so often many studios are not following this pattern?” then it goes on to say how cold mountain valued artistic value over blockbusters, so therefore the blockbusters are not a goal for “so many.” on the contrary, the first passage mentions the star wars sequels and how it made lots of money – which i kinda inferred as the profit stuff.</p>

<p>oh was one of them appealing merchandise?..</p>

<p>@SincFox I put something like the production of sequels for that answer.</p>

<p>@canunot‌ yep
@agupte‌ yep thats what i put</p>

<p>Dang it… I am pretty sure I missed nothing on the math but the vocab on reading throughout the passages and the first like 6 ones of each section killlllllllled me. Good thing writing was pretty easy although my essay was trash</p>

<p>@SincFox the first one i think is right</p>

<p>90% sure it’s illustrative. unsure its topdown</p>

<p>it’s fundamentally wrongheaded</p>

<p>froggy how is it illustrative</p>

<p>Anyone remember the answer for one of the improving paragraphs question? I honestly felt like none of the choices made complete sense although I chose A.
It was talking about how protestors were against the coloring of foods.</p>

<p>What was the answer for the remainder question with number 5 on math? i got [0,1,2]</p>

<p>@TheNamels I put (0, 1, 2, 3, 4)</p>

<p>9 divided by 5 = 4 io i think its the other one </p>

<p>I screwed up on this CR section :frowning: I’m projecting around 3-6 missed questions. I’m expecting at least 730 in Math and 770-800 in Writing, so hopefully I can squeak by with a 2300.</p>

<p>how is it not illustrative?</p>

<p>He uses the refrigerator as an illustrative example to clarify his point. His point is that cuisine/diet doesn’t easily change when people immigrate. </p>

<p>I think I did bad on this CR reading section as well. I’m going to predict for me.</p>

<p>720 Math
650 CR
660 Writing</p>

<p>2030 overall.</p>

<p>0,1,2,3,4 ofc</p>
