Official March 2008 SAT CR Discussion

<p>If there was a sentence completion with "duplicitous" as the answer, does anyone remember the question (roughly) or any answer choices? Also, did anybody else have a sentence about how fashion styles tend to change?</p>

<p>duplicitous was the answer, not sure what the other choices were</p>

<p>i remember the botonist passage in the begining was like she was a typical botonist doing a lot of things so she wasnt original</p>

<p>chaucer, the question with duplicitous was along the lines of: "Although she wasn't trying to be _____, and then something else</p>

<p>The "duplicitous" one went like this:</p>

<p>Although she may not have been truly <strong><em>(duplicitous)</em></strong>, her behavior seemed to indicate some sort of deceit. </p>

<p>Or something like that. Something about her acting suspicious.</p>

<p>Anyone remember the other choices for the duplicitous question? I think that's what I put but I'm not 100%</p>

<p>I think parsimonious may have been one? I'm not positive though...</p>

<p>I don't think parsimonious was an answer</p>

<p>I would be very happy if -2 is 800. As long as it's better than the typical -1 = 800. Expecting -4 = 800 is just pushing it, that would mean that the SAT makers thought this test would be a real hard*** which they normally don't do.</p>

<p>Yes parsimonious was an answer choice to the duplicitous question</p>

<p>i'm going to be really po'd if "original" was the answer.
one of the first things the passage said was that she was an artist that did all this different stuff.... speeches... traveling.... everything! it has to be versatile!
but that was a messup on the board's part. that question was just too close.</p>

<p>does anyone know how many questions i could miss and still get at least a 600? please..any educated guesses would be fine also..</p>

<p>anyone remember the question with conundrum in it?</p>

<p>was the letter overwrought? i put bellicose just cuz other kids called me an idiot for putting overwrought.
and for vocab - slighted, deleted from?</p>

<p>bellicose means hostile. answer was overwrought.</p>

<p>i approve tjpark1111's message</p>

<p>was the sentence completion with answers like germane and stilted in the experimental?</p>

<p>i don't remember those, so prolly</p>

<p>I couldn’t believe it
it’s the same as the test i took yesterday
hope i could see this a bit earlier
damn</p>

<p>Of course it is this discussion started after you took your test LOL</p>
