<p>Ahh! This is all causing me so much stress because my life is all determined by these questions! I think we should all stop and focus on graduate school instead because for finding jobs, graduate is more important than undergrad. Also, if you go to an above average school like UCLA or Boston University, you can still get into top graduate schools if ur GPA is like 3.85 or higher. Let's start practicing for LSAT!</p>
<p>Ugh, I don't even want to think about LSAT.</p>
<p>I took this SAT as a last-minute, last-ditch type thing... so it might help me out in case I don't get into my ED school.</p>
<p>Anyone get a "no error" for the last question in a set of error ID questions? I really think I got that one wrong... because why would there be a no error as the last question? (the ETS is so mean!)</p>
<p>what were the other choices to the selective/inclusive question?</p>
<p>I had no error for the last one.</p>
<p>Me too, did anyone else have four no-errors?</p>
<p>jsprad: I had known the word bucolic before and I knew sundry because it kept showing up, as on a hotel list: "Snacks, drinks and sundry"; I even remembered the literary synonym "divers." That said, thanks for thinking about the etymology, because I just looked it up and it looks like it comes from the Greek "bous," meaning "ox." I am taking ancient greek right now and that word comes up all the time. Cool :)</p>
<p>I think my last one may have been no errors. I had about four no errors. Were about three of any of yours clustered a little between the middle and the end? It made me a little uneasy...</p>
<p>yeah, i had no errors for the garlic one, the accountant one, and two others which i cant remember</p>
<p>I think I had 3 "no errors"</p>
<p>They were all sketchy sentences, though: the "hardly anyone" and the "any particular" sentence among them.</p>
<p>There was one or two more, hope they were right. The curve is unforgiving when you miss MC questions. My last writing section I had an 11 essay and missed two multiple choice and got nailed with a 730.</p>
<p>omg what the heck?</p>
<p>-2 and 11 = 730?</p>
<p>im screwed then =[</p>
<p>I remember I had either 4 or 5 no errors, but I think it was probably 4 no errors. Don't remember where they were clustered.</p>
<p>Yeah seriously on my last test I got a 12 essay + 3 MC wrong = 740.</p>
<p>namkim, i dunno where u heard of that, but i don't think so. my friend missed 3, got an 9 on the essay and got a 730. Wherever you heard that i dunno but it seems kinda harsh.</p>
<p>He heard it from me, that's what I got on the October SAT.</p>
<p>wow, what a crappy curve, it is so hard to score well on these tests. I mean, missing a couple of questions here or there should be expected even from the brightest of minds, they should just like curve it to two questions everytime, and then base anymore of the curve on the overall performance.</p>
<p>JSPRAD EXACTLY!!!!</p>
<p>ill concieved failures and resignition and defeated. </p>
<p>ill concieved failures because THEY WERE COMIC BOOKS...not imitiations,and the author stated that those comic books were made in a half hearted attitude and again.. he said they were ATTEMPTS!!! what does that implly??? FAILURES . THANK YOU. </p>
<p>and resignition and defeated because SHE ACCEPTED HER FATE with her conversation with her mother. the passage also stated that she "drooped her head" or something while talking to her mother. what does that show? she was defeated. she wasnt fearful. nope. she wasnt uncertain either. she knew what was coming at her. there was no evidence that she was fearful. she was just in a different place than her home in puerto rico.</p>
<p>she was fearful because the scene looks dark and threatening. and she was uncertain of what the future would hold for her.</p>
<p>we'll see when we get our results in 2 weeks, enough with the arguing and explanations. The reason I was emphatic with my approach before in that imitations and the fearful questions were right was because the majority of other cc'ers also agree with me, as well as friends.</p>
<p>anyone want to explain the marble problem (multiple choice) with the probabilities to me?
i think everyone agreed the answer was 20 or something</p>
<p>To imitate something, you have to TRY to be copying it. If I tell you a low brow joke about the female anatomy, I'm not foolishly imitating high brow humor that delinates the human condition in a comical light. I'm telling you a dirty joke, and I'm letting you know that I'm telling you a dirty joke. </p>
<p>However, if you're from the school of thought that spending inordinate amounts of time on anything that doesn't expand your mind or give you a greater understanding about what it means to be human, then to you, my joke was ill conceived. Why was it ill conceived? Because it doesn't meet your rubric for purposeful discourse. Why is it a failure? Because again, it wastes your time and does not expand your mind or help you to become more civilized. </p>
<p>The author believed comic books to fit the criteria for non substantive text that failed to serve the purpose of art: to enlighten the reader or provide the reader with an aesthetic experience ("The words in these books can not be considered literature, nor the drawings art"), so then to him, these comic books were ill conceived failures. Case closed.</p>
