***OFFICIAL MAY 2015 SAT THREAD (US ONLY)***

@TheCHAMPION I put that it was profound for the Robert Ebert against video games one. Critics tend to throw around the word “profound” pretty frequently, so I imagined that he wouldn’t think that games were very profound.

For the African-American Gridiron speech, I put that it was the drama of the moment because it listed all the important people who went to the event, how exclusive it was, and how great the club was. All these things gave me the sense that the author was trying to build up anticipation for the narrative, thus heightening/capturing the drama.

@ASAP123 nvm I think you’re right. :frowning: -1 for CR so far. The curve better be nice

@TheCHAMPION what did you do for that Picasso question in the writing part where you had to add relevant information?

For the theater passage, did you put down that their personal lives weren’t entirely satisfactory?

@ASAP123 it would become famous and yes

ok -4 in CR, -1 in Math and -3 in Writing. Expecting a 9 or 10 on the essay? Any score predictions?

Btw, wanted to check, for math was it all real values except 0?

Which of Maths section 3 or section 4 was experimental (for those who had Maths experimental)?
For those who didn’t have Maths experimental, was the last question in your non grid-in 25 minute Maths section something like this, 6^a x 6^b = 6^c / 6^d? The answer to this was d=c-a-b

@Terraform =/

@ASAP123 I wrote that it would later become well known or something like that. And yes I also wrote that their personal lives weren’t satisfactory.

Also, what did Author I (video game supportive one) think of that critic in the start of Passage II? (This was the second question of that 4 question CR). One choice was “overly generous to craftsman” I think.

I said shared views that were consistent with those of many people. Passage 1 said although video games is the tenth art, not everyone is this progressive. So if passage 2 opposes it, that person holds the same views as many others

By the way, I wrote two examples (Steve Jobs and the novel 1984). They were really well detailed but my hand ached alot between writing so I just focused on getting details across. I usually write English really well so there aren’t any grammatical mistakes but when I proofread it in the last 30 seconds, my introduction didn’t really stand out. It developed in the middle, and even there it wasn’t a masterpiece. Rather, it was kind of the quality I have written this comment in. Workable, but nothing outstanding.

Any chances of a 12?

^aren’t many grammatical mistakes* :stuck_out_tongue:

@MarcoReus I think there are multiple types of math experimentals, but mine ended with 4 questions about different musical notes and their frequencies.

For the video games, I put that Author I would say that the critic’s response would be “consistent with common attitudes” toward games, or something like that. I put this because there was this tiny comment in passage 1 that mentioned how most people weren’t progressive enough to appreciate games as an art form.

@ASAP123, you are correct. My friends also went with that. Can’t believe I missed out on that point. :confused:

My prompt was about the achievement thing. I wrote about Anthem (ayn rand) and Wuthering heights. hoping for like an 11

Does anyone remember the musical instrument answer in writing?

Cheers @Terraform. I am not sure about your Maths section though, maybe it was different than mine. There was that triangle question, 16 was it’s answer and it was an MCQ. That might be in the 20 minute section but I think it was in 25.

Hows tge curve gonna be?

@ASAP123, Don’t see the Maths or Writing curve moving much. Both were easy. CR was normal, -2 if we are lucky might still get a 800.
