Official Wednesday PSAT Discussion

<p>what about the one right after the "savor every moment" question, how he regards the person he's reading it too, sincere respect right?</p>

<p>yo wut u guys put for that description of the guys disheveled appearance and like worn out jeans and shirt? i put it was a habitial something</p>

<p>Sincere respect seems right...the other choices didn't make sense.</p>

<p>for the one with a and a^2 + a i put (0, -1 and 2) why is that wrong?</p>

<p>2^2 + 2 = 6 which was not in the set.</p>

<p>How do you guys remember all these verbal questions? I can't remember any of my answers from that section... Oh, welll... Wait till December :)</p>

<p>For Ax + Bx = 36, I thought the answer was X =3 when (a+b) = 12.</p>

<p>i didn't get the "sincere respect". I was thinking that, but I thought it was more like "feeling sorry for him" because he talks about how he was lonely. But critical reading is my worst section, so I'm not a reliable source.</p>

<p>Yeah, I got "habitual condition" or something like that.</p>

<p>The vocab in context was pretty easy. What about the one with the purpose of the black women passage. Some answers I remember were "advance new ideas" and "competent scholars"?</p>

<p>For the one everyone is saying the answer to is "savor every moment", I put "make his visitor stay longer" or something like that because it said in the first sentence that the old blind guy was lonely...Wouldn't this make more sense? I thought about the savor every moment, but the lonely thing jumped out at me.</p>

<ul>
<li>choices to a question not answers
sorry</li>
</ul>

<p>this is why i hate critical reading soo much, its not objective, its whatever is the "MOST" correct answer</p>

<p>bottom line-i failed ciritcal reading</p>

<p>For the one about the Polish sovereign...Did anyone else get that the "there" was wrong? It just sounded wrong to me...</p>

<p>...Or that could be why I got 5 C's in a row</p>

<p>depends on how "there" was spelled?</p>

<p>It said something about the Polish king "was sovereign there once again." It just seemed like the "there" was unnecessary for reference to the city.</p>

<p>I put no error for the sovereign one. I'm not sure though. It was one of the last questions, which means it is "hard", so obvious answers might not always be the right ones. Silly logic, but ETS functions that way. You are right though, it doesn't sound right.</p>

<p>i dont like this anticipation, i'll be worrying for another 2 months almost...</p>

<p>if i put 4.60 instead of 4.6, would it be counted wrong? anybody know?</p>

<p>hehe...yeah...and it doesn't even matter for me since I'm a sophomore...but I want to beat the 217 I got last year!</p>

<p>That should be fine. 4.60 would be acceptable as far as I know.</p>
