<p>and what about the scores? how many do you think we can miss for verbal and still get a 800?</p>

<p>so which one is correct? brazen or blithe?
i put brazen but i think blithe is correct</p>

<p>did anybody get a bunch of D's in a row or E's in a row throughout all the verbal sections? what do you guys think the curve for verbal will be?</p>

<p>"This is neat! Let's do it"</p>

<p>I chose the "child-like" answer because that's something a child would say IMO. Not brazen or a desire to study nature.</p>

<p>BTW, dramatist:play is right, darn it. Lyricist writes ONLY the words to music. Good thing I already have a strong verbal score, and math was what I needed to bring up.</p>

<p>what words came after blithe? I seem to remeber that one sticking out at me. Was the word impulsive in there at all?</p>

<p>about rationalizing as in what passage 2's author would think of passage 1's rationalization, was something like overcoming fear and unknown one of the options?</p>

<p>The blithe one was something like "a blithe decision without consideration of consquences"..i think (I chose it)</p>

<p>There was something about the "child-like" choice that seemed out of place to me.</p>

<p>I chose blithe:</p>

<p>blithe ( P ) Pronunciation Key (blth, blth)
adj. blitha?er, blitha?est
Carefree and lighthearted.
Lacking or showing a lack of due concern; casual: spoke with blithe ignorance of the true situation.</p>

<p>Brazen is probably wrong:</p>

<p>braa?zen ( P ) Pronunciation Key (brzn)
adj.
Marked by flagrant and insolent audacity. See Synonyms at shameless.
Having a loud, usually harsh, resonant sound: "sudden brazen clashes of the soldiers' band" (James Joyce).
Made of brass.
Resembling brass, as in color or strength.</p>

<p>i picked 'justifing and impulsive decision'</p>

<p>"and what about the scores? how many do you think we can miss for verbal and still get a 800?"</p>

<p>I think there will be a nice curve for verbal, and math will be super strict. There were a lot of tricky analogies, and I thought the math was the easiest I've taken yet.</p>

<p>I'm changing my prediction to 700+ math, high 600's verbal.</p>

<p>I cannot WAIT until November 19th.</p>

<p>I put, as my answer for the guild one, to provide a service to the public that would only be given to royalty or something. The Arts and Crafts people wanted to put a ton of effort into their jewelry for the common citizen like they did for aristocratic dudes in the Medieval era.</p>

<p>lol............. i cant wait to see how poorly i did on this one :(</p>

<p>Can someone post the questions and how to get the answers for the grid-ins for which the answers were 52.5, 101, and 141 (#6, 7 and 8, respectively)?</p>

<p>Are you sure it wasn't a brazen desire? I can't remember!</p>

<p>"Justifying an impulsive decision" was for a different question, I think--the one about his rationalizations.</p>

<p>does anyone remember about latino passage questions?</p>

<p>I would say 2 or 3 wrong for verbal 800.
My guess:
800
800
800
800
780
770
760</p>

<p>1 wrong is 800 for math.
My guess:
800
800
780 (770?)
760
740
720</p>

<p>I do really well in Verbal... ~700, but I'm horrible at Math... so I'm hoping for at least a 550-600 :-&lt;/p>

<p>dang it and i already missed 3 ... im waiting to discover more that i missed.
blah.</p>

<p>On of the Latino questions was about why the author mentions metamorphosis - i put to prove a point or something like that.</p>

<p>Ok let me think of some other answers of mine...</p>

<p>80 cars for the 200-car problem
52.5 chairs per hour on average (or whatever the heck it was they were building)
surface area 10 for the dualcube
adding 30 ounces more to the summer mixture
median 14
4/9 for the AB line problem
5 ways to get from A to C
2 segments would be enclosed inside the 3d-pentagonal prism
-1 was the answer for the logic-x question
the answer to the (x+1)^2 = 3 thing or whatever was I think 1
The question with the t-embedded fraction was t = 2 only</p>

<p>What did people get for the one that was like, largest prime factor of 225 compared with 20?</p>
