***Official January 2015 SAT (US ONLY) THREAD***

@ifnt7ju‌ Well it was the music one, and it was regarding the sentence: Authenticity is an absolute, unachievable…

Just a thought, today morning this thread had 11 pages…

@APScholar18‌, I am 99% retaking. This was my first time. I will be taking it again in March or May.

I’ve been here the entire thread and I’ve seen that I’ve gotten 1 math and 1 CR definitely wrong. The rest line up with people’s answers but we haven’t gone through all of them obviously, so no idea how it went.

For the concession one…actually he was really reluctant because the whole essay is about him praising the strive to become more authentic and then he admits that it’s actually not achievable

But unqualified assertion sounds fine too…anyone have a good definition for unqualified in this context though?

@stvika‌ what was the right answer for the folk one then?

is anyone else sitting here and refreshing this thread every couple minutes… :))

I did worse than I thought lol

Red, Blue, Green, Green, Yellow, Purple

The pattern repeats, so the 16th would essentially be the 4th color in the series. In order for blue to be the 4th color, the order would have to be Yellow-Purple-Red-Blue-Green-Green

The 51st would be the 3rd color in the series. So the answer is red.

You won’t believe what I got for my experimental section. It was grammar, section 6. They could not have made it more conspicuous. It was an ACT English section, like it literally had the exact form that for a moment I could not understand why I was doing grammar again when I had writing for section 5. Anyway, do you guys know what the answer super organism passage and postal stamps passage?

@synzie256‌ Yay! Geometry is the worst part of the entire SAT for me, so nice to see it seems I got that right.

I got blue or purple I can’t remember. But ya I thought it was when you got rid of red. Because when you don’t get rid of red you get red as your answer. But if you do, then you get either blue/purple. @gustachurro‌

@cherrypop‌ For superorganism, it’s the answer about applying a scientific term. For postage, purpose of the passage is explain appeal of an object or something along those lines.

LOL the ACT section! It was actually so much worse written than the ACT though…
The super organism one was to define to usage of a scientifi term. And about the postage collection, I said it was to describe an object, but many people put to document the evolution of a pasttime…
@cherrypop

@singbirdsing‌ Hey, us too… Weird coincidence that they both forgot and then remembered at the same time. Except my proctor was male haha.

Was Louisa May Alcott section experimental?

^yes i feel like i’m the only other person who had that

I believe it’s the latter…

@singbirdsing Yea!

@synzie256 what happens if you get rid of red? I think the question was like that… idk

@i2400ezpz‌, I’m pretty sure it’s extended analogies.
