<p>Verbal Curve Jan 2003:800,800,800,780,770,750,740,730,720,710,700,690</p>

1162

<p>yeah that counts</p>

1163

<p>That question was "if you add a number to this list, which of the following are possible added numbers such that the average of the numbers is the same as the median?"</p>

<p>2 4 6 8 </p>

<p>I. 0
II. 5
III. 10</p>

<p>My "I"s orders may be messed up but it doesn't matter since they all work.</p>

1164

<p>For those of you who got the experimental verbal section containing the picture of the duck and the rabbit, this isn't the first time ---> <a href="http://www.collegeconfidential.com/cgi-bin/discus/show.cgi?69/94955%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.collegeconfidential.com/cgi-bin/discus/show.cgi?69/94955&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

1165

<p>crap i read that wrong too</p>

1166

<p>i thought it was what number if added would be both the median and average, 10 wouldn't be the median and 0 wouldn't be the median</p>

1167

<p>watch:</p>

<p>if u have 0 then 0,2,4,6,8 median 4, average 4
if u have 5 then 2,4,5,6,8 median 5 average 5
if you have 10 then 2,4,6,8,10 median 6 average 6 thus all three</p>

1168

<p>are yousure the question is not : the number added is also the median and average?</p>

1169

<p>yeah ok thats what i though too</p>

1170

<p>To tell you guys the truth...</p>

<p>This test was recycled from last year's December 2003 test.</p>

1171

<p>i remember it was a number that was all 3, meaning
n= median and average so 5 would be the median and the average</p>

1172

<p>No the question was when you added the number you produced equal medians and means</p>

1173

<p>yeah i thought so tooo... i just got five for the anwer. it said the number that is the median and the mean</p>

1174

<p>was "logic and something" an answer to citical reading passage?</p>

1175

1176

<p>can someone start posting ans. for the sentence completion</p>

1177

<p>Come on guys, it was "he made even the most meandering conversation candid"
meandering means digressing. Candid means straightforward. It works perfectly. Innocuous has absolutely nothing to god damn due with conspir****ingtorial</p>

1178

<p>i think i was right, only 5 is the answer, i confirmed that with 3 friends</p>

1179

<p>cool, that bleeped my swear. that's awesome!</p>

1180

<p>good.. yeah i thought it was five too. so i don't know what everybody else is tlaking about...</p>
