<p>Hi. I felt the SAT I was okkkaayyy... </p>
<p>Math was pretty bad... I got 2 9's for the grid ins... </p>
<p>1) How many consecutive numbers between 0-1000 = triplets. = 9? </p>
<p>2) How many rectangles? = 3+ </p>
<p>3) How long call? = 40 min </p>
<p>4) I think, but am not certain, the last one fill-in was rad3/2. </p>
<p>5) Thought the essay was pretty "interesting..." I think it was such a horrible loaded question...</p>
<p>You can have a rad in a grid-in? I agree with all your other answers.</p>

<p>AOL CHAT: </p>
<p>DECSAT</p>
<p>i said 9 for consecutive numbers</p>
<p>I dont understand the rectangle one..</p>
<p>I said 2 which is wrong. Now that Im thinking about it, there is an infinite number</p>
<p>For other questions I got...
K = 8/5
40 for the telephone one
20 for the marbles
L = 10w for something
6 possibilities of red, white and blue outifts
Does anyone remember others and did you guys get these answers?</p>
<p>Wasn't it 4+ rectangle? Also are you talking about the f(x)=sqrt(x) and g(x)=x/3 and h(x) is f(x)+g(x), where the input and outputs of each had to be an integer, and h(x) had to be greater than forty? If so, I got 144.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the one right before it? Wasn't it a triangle question? I got stumped. Also, what was the median problem, where n could be anything except one answer. And then the coordinate system one where you had to determine the length of a line drawn from one end of a parabola to the maximum, I believe, where you're given the x-intercepts of the curve? I felt it had to be either 2 or 5/2, based on guessing values, and I chose 2, but I probably got it wrong. I felt pretty confident about the rest, but there's always mistakes.</p>
<p>As for the rectangle one, the diagonal of the rectangle is simply the diameter of the circle, and the rectangle can be infinitely "spun" inside the circle so that any number of rectangles is possible.</p>
<p>Re: writing, is anyone certain about the question about I believe birds with the phrase "any particular bird"? I put no error, even though I debated the phrase "any particular," thinking that "any" was broad while "particular" was specific.</p>
<p>Reading: How did the two girls in the story about the Puerto Rican girl in New York encounter each other? Our proctor was actually sleeping during several parts of our test and loudly snoring, making it hard to concentrate, particularly then. I was stuck between something to the effect of "surveying each other suspiciously" and "shyly noting each other." I chose "noting each other" because the Puerto Rican girl ignored the other girl at first, but did realize her presence. Although she may have been suspicious, the passage didn't say anything to that effect and it only asked what could be inferred on the one sentence "As she was walking, she saw a girl with a jump rope." Also was the answer to the perhaps second to last question about that passage, in reference to what her mother was implying, that "the rules of New York were different"?</p>
<p>Thanks :)</p>
<p>Collegegrl88: Those answers are identical to mine except, maybe, 8/5.</p>
<p>I do remember getting an 8/5, but I also remember a "k=4n/3," but the variable may not have been k. It may have been the question about how double one number, and adding to another affects the overall value.</p>
<p>Syn, there were 2 with a k. For one, I did get 4n/3. Im talking about the last problem in one of the sections with the 10 blocks forming steps and the perimeter = area. For that one I got 8/5. The one youre talking abt with H(x) must have been experimental because I didnt have it.</p>
<p>just got back, what an evil essay..</p>
<p>Collegegrl88: Then I think we both got the same answers. As for the h(x) one, I just stated it a different way from the way they did. It was more like this:</p>
<p>sqrt(x)+x/3</p>
<p>where x is a positive integer and sqrt(x)+x/3 is a positive integer. What is the least possible value of x if sqrt(x)+x/3 is less than 40?</p>
<p>As for the essay, I think the whole "leadership" thing was a little too precise. Did anyone have any examples of someone who was destined to be a leader... but wasn't? There are multiple essays right? I stretched the definition of leadership to mean mostly being in the upper class of society or succeeding beyond your own expectations. Even then, I think it is one of the better SAT essays I've written and I hope to do well on it.</p>
<p>Was this the same SAT as I wrote today in Canada?</p>
<p>IE - CR section on animal communication</p>
<p>I did well, except that I messed up the second CR section. If I am lucky, it won't count and section 6 would count.</p>

</p>
<p>yeah, that's what I got.</p>

</p>
<p>that's what I got too. 1.6</p>

"k=4n/3,"

</p>
<p>Yup, I got that k too.</p>
<p>

what was the median problem, where n could be anything except one answer.
[/quote]
</p>
<p>It couldn't be 6, cause the mode is 5. If it was 6, there would be just as much 6s as 5s, and the mode wouldn't be 5 anymore.</p>

[/quote]
</p>
<p>That one baffled me, and I seriously think they had the question wrong and more than one choice is possible.</p>
<p>If you have an isoceles triangle, with AB>BC then AB=AC (definitely), and ABC=ACB, while ABC and ACB both being different than CAB.</p>

<p>I didn't put any error either.</p>

<p>That was confusing. I chose suspiciously surveying each other, cause the Hispanic (other girl) wasn't shy at all. She started the whole convo even though they don't know each other. The Puerto Rican girl tried to ignore her.</p>
<p>For the essay, I think I did well.</p>
<p>I mentioned that you don't have to have talents and abilities to be a leader.</p>
<p>And I put Hitler as an example of a leader who got there by manipulating the public and then he drove Germany to the abyss.</p>
<p>I also put American Idol as a testimony that there are a lot of talented people in society who do not make it, so it's all about taking the opportunity.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember number 10 on the Section 9 Math section?</p>

</p>
<p>Ahh probably not because that's the one that I had and I took mine in Germany</p>
<p>I was actually talking about a different triangle problem that was second to last, but yeah that problem confused me as well. I decided to choose the one that said one of the longer sides was equal to the shorter base, since that was most close to what the original "AB>AC" statement. But I agree that the angle thing made no sense; unless I'm missing something, it must have been a mistake.</p>
<p>About the critical reading one, I think you're probably right as I thought they seemed unfriendly towards each other. The -only- thing that makes me unsure is that they specifically ask about the first sentence in which she sees the girl, which doesn't really say much at all, at least not enough about whether they were analyzing/surveying each other, but it did say that they saw each other. I hope that I at least got the other critical reading questions rightI shouldn't have missed them, but the entire room was distracted by our proctor's snoring.</p>
<p>lmfao i used</p>
<p>Caligula
Michael Brown
George Bush</p>
<p>I used Michael Brown, too. On a side note, I've used Invisible Man on every SAT essay I have ever written.</p>
