***OFFICIAL PSAT Wednesday, October 12

<p>it seems kind of dumb to withhold the booklets since they are NEVER going to be used in testing again. I mean, there's no reason to still keep them secure even after the test has been administered.</p>

<p>I know DiGamma .. it seems very dumb
I asked because my GC ordered extra PSAT tests ( i guess by accident), and he refuses to give them to people that want them ... people were like ***?! ETS is not ever going to use this test anymore...idk, seems very stupid that he could not of given me it .... Imagine if I had it .... :runs to CC and types in every question :</p>

<p>they don't reuse questions on saturdays test do they?</p>

<p>although they may use some of the same topics presented in the wed psat, the questions will not be the same. ..</p>

<p>when or how do we know if we made national merit</p>

<p>You get scores in December, NMS info fall of your senior year.</p>

<p>guys i need help!!! im panicking lol</p>

<p>ok, the math Q with the angles a>b>c and it had three statements and you had to say which were correct. i put I and III were correct. this has been verified by some CCers, and some people in my school who i believe to be very good at math (like me, LOL)... but i was just thinking about it more on the train today (i dont remmeber the wording exactly though, so i may have been confusng myself), and i am no longer sure if i am right!! can anyone tell me if they are 100% positive that i am right (or wrong....)</p>

<p>I am 90% sure that I and III is correct.</p>

<p>What made you think it wasn't?</p>

<p>ilovemath, you're right.</p>

<p>Now that I think about it, I and III could be wrong if one of the inequalities was supposed to be =< (less than or equals) instead of <. </p>

<p>I dunno though, just a possibility. That could have been a dumb trick. does anyone remember I, II, and III?</p>

<p>it was not II.</p>

<p>because 45 < b < 90 does not include all possible values of II.</p>

<p>I was 60 < c < 180, which works fine. Just look at the extreme.</p>

<p>and III was a < 60, which makes sense.</p>

<p>i thought the statements were
I- 90 (or was it 60) <a<180
II- 45<b<90
III- 0<c<60</p>

<p>and so i was thinking... it didnt say "what arethe ONLY values for the angles", </p>

<p>i thought is said "which of the following are true"
in which case II would be true, even though b could possibly be more values</p>

<p>wait if 60<c<180 than this could not be true c= 61, b=62, and a=63 which does not make a triangle</p>

<p>oh yeah and for some reason i got II and III as correct. :(</p>

<p>if we are going by ilovemaths interpretation of the question</p>

<p>for I. if a = 179 b=1 c=0 so this cannot be true. can it?</p>

<p>the angles don't have to be integers.</p>

<p>and it's 60 < c < 180</p>

<p>45 < b < 90 cannot be a true statement if there are other possible values for B.</p>

<p>an interval must be necessary and sufficient to be true.</p>

<p>Would you say on the graph of x^2, the domain is on the interval of (0,1) ? (It certainly includes (0,1) but that alone is not sufficient)</p>

<p>I think it asked, which one MUST be true. If that's the case, it's I and III.</p>

<p>In regards to CR, we now have the complete fisherman passage at our disposal. </p>

<p>"now when i had mastered the language of this water and had come to know every trigleing feature that bordered the great river as familiarly as I knew the letters of the alphabet i had made a valuable acquisition. but i had lost something too. i had lost something which could never be restored to me while i lived. all the grace, the beauty, the poetry had gone out of the majestic river! i still keep in mind a certain wonderful sunset which i witnessed when steamboat9ng was new to me. A broad expanse of the river was turned to blood;.......................... No, the romance and the beauty were all gone from the river. all the value any feature of it had for me now was the amount of usefulness it could furnish toward compasssing the safe piloting of a steamboat. since those day i have pitied doctors form my heart. what does the lovely flush in a beauty cheek mean to a doctor but a break that ripples above some deadly disease? are not all her visible charms sown thick with what are to him the signs and symbols of hidden decay? does he ever see her beauty at all. or doesn't he simply view her professionsally and comment upon her unwholesome condition all to himself? and doesn't he sometime wonder wheter he has gained most or lost most by learning his trade? " - Twain</p>

<p>Can anyone see why I chose "escape from confinement" rather than "telling irregularity?" I'm still not sure which one is correct.</p>

<p>lol i wrote that</p>

<p>k still if they are not integers than for 60<c<180 c=60.1 b=60.2 a=60.3 it will still be above 180 no matter what</p>
