<p>@feedback411: I put “acknowledge that a position may seem unreasonable.” </p>
<p>Um, same question as you for the conventions, reluctantly optimistic, and overestimating importance of foresight question.</p>
<p>I put conventions, but I was stuck between that and the other choice of being readily willing to challenge preconceived notions.</p>
<p>a1rplanes</p>
<p>i dont think so. you’re right, but they specifically asked about the last paragraph, so i think scientifc implications was the right answer</p>
<p>Wait the question with the foresight as one of the choices, that was the answer right, the foresight one? That was the only one that made sense. Also, can we go over the answers for the mars and Venus one?</p>
<p>Does anyone still remember the last dinosaur questions about whether its analzying or investigating?</p>
<p>Couldn’t wrap my mind around that. In some ways hes investigating how dinosaurs became a recent trend by looking at from all prospectives. hes also analyzing why people love dinosaurs. f***, their meaning are the same</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure it was account for a puzzling phenomenon. Because he’s confused as to why people like certain things so much at a certain time when it’s always been around. A trend refers to single event but he was talking about several things. He’s not really analyzing either</p>
<p>@ neverend ok that was investigating how dinosaurs became a recent trend</p>
<p>Does anyone remember any other fill in the blanks/vocab questions? I keep trying to wrack my brain for more of them but I’m failing miserably.</p>
<p>was this test easier than usual?</p>
<p>There was this one with polymath in it. I’d never heard of that word before, so I didn’t put that answer, but I can’t think of the question now.</p>
<p>I thought that the writing was really easy, the math was pretty easy (I missed at least 4, but the math section is my worst section on this test), and two of the four reading sections were easy (1 was an experimental; I’m not sure which.)</p>
<p>Puzzling phenomenon I got as well. I think I put reluctantly optimistic as well, because the scientist is of course optimistic that new developments in their field will be made but of course they’re not so cheery if those said developments mean humans seem less smart than before, and apes smarter than before.</p>
<p>This was my third time and I found it to be easier than the other two. I just hope I’ve raised my score a bit because it was my last time and I already put it to be sent in the college report.</p>
<p>The one with polymath was the answer. The word means something like “a renaissance man.”</p>
<p>Did any of you answer ideologue for a blank one?</p>
<p>Can you guys describe the sentence that polymath was in?</p>
<p>It couldn’t have been the trend one because the answer was something “recreational trend” and the recreational makes no sense in that context</p>
<p>@ ShadowMist</p>
<p>polymath was the right answer. the person in the sentence was a mathematician, scientist, etc., so he/she has a “wide-ranging knowledge or learning” (definition of polymath)</p>
<p>a1planes</p>
<p>puzzling phenomenon, what preceeded that? investigate or analyze?</p>
<p>(became a recent trend was a paraphrase)</p>
<p>@usernamephobia I have a question. I’ve taken the test twice, so when I send the score from this sitting (October 2012), will the score I got from the March sitting be sent as well?</p>
<p>I got puzzling phenomenon. </p>
<p>Also, can we get a consensus on “reluctantly optimistic”? It sounded weird to me but none of the other answers made any sense. </p>
<p>For the one about “possibly mistaken/wrong” for the apes one, I actually got E. something like, has not been proven wrong it? Because it was talking about the assumption that apes are not developed in language, and author of Passage 1 agreed with it…</p>
