*OFFICIAL PSAT THREAD 2014 (US)*

<p>@Spurs2014‌ yes you’re fine</p>

<p>@daw3iy‌ do you even know what fanaticism means? Look put atavistic because that was a choice and that was the answer bro</p>

<p>Does anybody remember the coloured ball question in the Math Section? I remotely remembered somewhere I learned by I wasn’t sure. I had down 7 as my answer.</p>

<p>Will somebody tell me what the no errors were on the writing section besides the first question? Is everyone unsure lol</p>

<p>Cut-off is 218 here, which is actually down from last year, but still given the population here its going to be hard to get in. I can only hope. </p>

<p>The penguin one was no error. Can we talk about new questions and not the same ones over and over? The marble one was 7 stop asking </p>

<p>@riship i’m pretty sure the other one was about penguins not being able to fly</p>

<p>@cartman2400‌ hmm I put error for that one because I thought you can’t evolve IN the absence of predators, you can evolve DURING the absence of predators or WITH the absence of predators</p>

<p>No need to be rude.</p>

<p>@riship‌ </p>

<p>That was my thinking as well. Not sure what I ultimately put down though. That was Choice D right?</p>

<p>Would the explanation be an error in idiom?</p>

<p>Could someone make a consolidated list for CR? or the no errors for writing?</p>

<p>Atavism? Anybody? Fanaticism seemed too aggressive to be correct. But the dictionary seems to suggest atavism would be incorrect. Also, the one about Prince? I put recluse. Confirmation for these two?</p>

<p>does anybody know whether it’s atavism or fanaticism for the penguin one?</p>

<p>@Smargent‌
Yes the ball probability question was most likely 7.</p>

<p>It was not atavism it was fanaticism. I’m not sure how it’s fanaticism tho.</p>

<p>The penguin vocab question sentence was taken from this passage:
WCS Newsroom</p>

<p>@Chrysanthemum14‌ Fanaticism feels really wrong. But what about Prince?</p>

<p>NO GUYS LOOK UP FANATICISM AND ATAVISM… it’s atavism by definition. There is this thing called the dictionary </p>

<p>Atavism is related to genetic heredity. How the f*** can you connect fidelity of returning to a certain spot with genetic heredity. Fidelity = loyalty. Fanaticism = intense loyalty</p>

<p>Yeah I put atavism too but apparently it’s incorrect.</p>

<p>The majority think that Prince was recluse.</p>

<p>What did you guys get for the one about that species of snakes for writing?</p>

<p>: which results in rarely + verb
resulting in rarely + verb
and therefore rarely + verb</p>

<p>Do you think I will make National Merit Semifinalist in PA (last year cutoff was 217)
