<p>I got hampered too, Sunnyboy. I believe...</p>
<p>By "This looks +" i mean "From what i've gathered from this thread, I believe I did moderately well on the June 4th SAT"</p>
<p>Do you think the curve for CR on this test will be slightly more generous than the March SAT Curve of:</p>
<p>800
800
800
790
770
750
740
...
?</p>
<p>i chose hampered, as well</p>
<p>Don't remember the sentence completion but do remember choosing sedentary as an answer.
Predicting the scale is very difficult. I'm guessing and hoping that 2 wrong will still be an 800. This is based upon the difficult vocabulary on this test and the number of critical reading questions that came down to two very close (and not very good) answers. We'll see.</p>
<p>I remember sedentary as an answer too</p>
<p>BILINGUAL CALLIGRAPHER</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Punishment - mother most often uses
^
i thot one was 'sumthing difficult to master'
4
. List of different jobs depicts the variety of the mother's work
^i remember this one was ''various tasks that used caligraphy', sumthing along thoe lines</p></li>
<li><p>Paying a professional decorator to find a better spot for a sofa - creative but unorthodox solution to a vexing problem
^ this one is definetly 'unfortunate but understandable situation'</p></li>
<li><p>SECURE = ACQUIRE
^ which question was this? wat did it talk about?</p></li>
<li><p>What distinguishes artistis? Tough question! I put that artists have a more accurate view of reality than others. i agree!</p></li>
</ol>
<p>PAIRED PASSAGE: TRAVELING ALONE</p>
<ol>
<li>Last paragraph of Passage 1 acknowledges that there is an exception to the rule stated above - can anyone confirm this?</li>
</ol>
<p>ASTRONAUTS</p>
<ol>
<li>Description of astronaut jargon as "foreign language" shows that most laypersons would find it needlessly complicated
^ i put this one as sumthing about 'one word in one language can have a lot of meanings in another language'</li>
</ol>
<p>they use 'unique' language for unprecented conditions.</p>
<p>i think another answer was 'unique'</p>
<p>prelewd, for the one about the description as a "foreign language", you must have been thinking about a completely different question. There was one question that describes how British words are confusing to American speakers, and the answer to that one was that one word in one language can have a lot of meanings in another language. </p>
<p>What you are talking about was not even an answer choice to the question to which you refer...</p>
<p>Heltahir is right! There were a list of words (boots and bonnets?) and the point was that they have different meanings in different cultures or something like that.</p>
<p>yeah that's right. What about the last passage? I forgot what it was about. oh yeah one about environment's impact
about the glasses</p>
<p>I think that the answer had to do with how past experience affects perception.</p>
<p>yeah I chose that too.
man I might get a good score. Judging from the other answers I got only 2 SC wrong and no reading wrong except the one I omitted.</p>
<p>Does anyone in here skip any questions? Cause you guys are all predicting your scores by how many you're missing, I don't see anything about skipping....</p>
<p>Never skip. I felt AWFUL skipping one on the Math IIc (800 anyways).</p>
<p>Guessing is always beneficial if you can eliminate just ONE of the choices. Do it.
Studies show that men leave FAR less ones blank than women. Must be something to do with the fact that leaving any blank means the SAT DEFEATED j00.</p>
<p>only as a last resort. But usually i never skip unless i'm clueless.</p>
<p>"1. Punishment - mother most often uses" is definitely wrong. the mother wants her child to learn to write and the child thinks like its a punishment. there is no evidence in the passage that the mom uses that as punishment on a regular basis.</p>
<p>i remember there was a question with the word TOOK. what did hemingway take from his car ride to france. i dont remember the answer choices. something along the lines of traveling with people who you enyoy being around.</p>
<p>unprecedented conditions was the answer to why space jargon came to be</p>
<p>"7. Last paragraph of Passage 1 acknowledges that there is an exception to the rule stated above - can anyone confirm this?"
i confirm</p>
<p>what distinguishes artists?
i think that one was that they can see the world from a fresh perspective much like the children through visual distortion but unlike the scientists who couldnt discover something new from an experiment because they didnt look at it from a fresh perspective and expected certain results</p>
<p>Punishment wasn't mother most often uses. It was something else. I don't remember.</p>
<p>I'm so useful.</p>
<p>"something hard to master" was punishment to the child.</p>
<p>yup it was.</p>
<p>"the exclusivity of jargon shows that there is more to jargon than efficient communication."
i believe this was the answer because some create jargon so others couldnt understand. this means that jargon is not only used for efficient communication as in space but to be exclusive</p>
