<p>i dont think so, b/c i had two math grid ins so i think one of those was my experimental</p>

<p>my essay said " do people put too much emphasis on winning?"</p>

<p>I had the winning essay too, I hated it Couldnt think of much, I ********ted, have a feeling i didnt do that well on it...</p>

<p>nyone else get that essay question?</p>

<p>someone explain the 4 cirlcles one with the shaded region please</p>

<p>The lamp thing was not experimental. I remember that and going *** I don't remember which passage it was on though.</p>

<p>@armas262
the each intersected segments of the small radii were 1.</p>

<p>so the biggest circle's radius would be 3.</p>

<p>its hard to explain in words but then the shaded regions' radius would be 5/2pi.</p>

<p>then the next small circle's radius would be 4/2pi</p>

<p>(5/2)^2pi - (4/2)^2pi</p>

<p>9/4pi.</p>

<p>oh u guys didn't get Is it beneficial to avoid using modern technology? and got that winning one. weird. what state r u from? maybe that makes the difference</p>

<p>out of curiousity what was the letter choice for that, when I was doing another section I put an A for the answer on that problem accidently, but I realized my mistake, and I erased it, I hope I didnt accidently get it right and then erase it :/</p>

<p>No they have about 4 different essays for each sat test, I know this because I got SAS and it showed the the other essays along with mine</p>

<p>i got the modern technology one. i didnt use any historical or literary examples, but i still think mine was pretty good.</p>

<p>what is sas</p>

<p>student answer servies or something like that it gives you the actual sat you took for like $18.00</p>

<p>I got the modern technology essay as well.. I used examples of various advancements in medicine ect.</p>

<p>oh and it showed u the others too?</p>

<p>yeah It shows all of them, when I was looking at the other ones I was like whew im so glad I didnt get those essays :) I got the best essay i could actually write about it lol, I got an 8 on it, I was happy about that, considering I got a 4 the 1st time, lol I wrote a rough draft the first time, and as soon as I started transfering it the proctor was like 5 mins lol</p>

<p>yea i got the technology one to. I used a few examples, almost finished the second page(3 lines left). I think it was pretty good. I used transportation,industrial accidents, and computers in it and I think i did a pretty good job showing reasons to avoid it.</p>

<p>You should at least get a decent score from the length, an MIT professor did a study showing sat Essays that were longer usually got higher scores, i got about a page and a half</p>

<p>no I think i remember noticing that I wanted a word like stimulate, not simulate</p>

<p>u guys hear about any other questions for the essay?</p>
