<p>I have no idea what to do (in terms of whether or not to cancel), mine is the one with the math experimental as section 5, and I know for sure I butchered my first math grid-in section, but I already have a 700 in math and the main reason I took the test this past saturday was to improve CR, which I think I did very well on. Tough decision..</p>

3

<p>what's equation and what's spr....</p>

<p>i think i had the first senerio the have up there..the first grid in was HARD...i coudln't answer 5...if equation is math with grid ins...then i'm fine..</p>

<p>so wut is equation and what's spr?</p>

4

<p>Equating is the experimental section.This time it was a critical reading section. </p>

<p>The SPR is Student Personal Response,I think.i.e. grid-in. That wasnt experimental ,I'm afraid.</p>

5

<p>ahoy, so the telephone/ trifactorials section did count. can someone refresh my memory...was the marbles question on the experimental (venn diagram) or with the telephono?</p>

6

<p>The telephone/tricfactorials DID count.</p>

<p>You may want to cancel your scores, if you dont feel you did well on the SAT's. Im assuming your a senior, so this is the last time you took your SATs. I remember a college rep talking about the importance of trends in SAT scores. I took the physics SAT 2 and got a 730 and then took it again to try and get an 800, but I didnt really study so i cancelled. I felt it was a good choice because I didnt want the college finding any weakness in my stats. Even though they take the highest SAT scores, they see ALL of your scores and they observe increasing and decreasing trends. they dont just wipe away other scores</p>

<p>so if we had the math and then the equating, anyone remember the questions? I remember there being some parabola with a tangent line to it and you had to find out the number and there was also a grid in (last one) and it had a cube with A, B, and something else and they gave you proportions....anyone remember these? hopefully they didnt' count, those are the 2 I missed.</p>
