<p>For the James Boswell one, I put E.</p>

<p>Does anyone else remember the two writing MCs that I'm talking about? I'm hoping that I got that section as an experimental. </p>

<p>1) Visiters to NYC' Central Park number far more than that of Mount Rushmore.</p>

<p>2) The number of people...disadvantage...far exceeds those who will benefit.</p>

<p>Neb154, no the Qs I was asking about were part of the Writing section as Sentence Error IDs. For the manufacturing drug Q in CR, I put "tout...efficacious".</p>

162

<p>I put E for the English literature one i believe, but I wasn't sure.</p>

<p>For the porcupine, I said an outline of a social somethign or other.</p>

163

<p>Yes, I put tout and efficacious (even though I had never heard of efficacious and probably never will).</p>

164

<p>There were so many that I was unsure about for Sentence Error IDs in the Writing section. Does anyone remember the sentence "It was a Chinese American who succeeded with adapting the now...tree...to American soil" or something like that? I'm not sure if there was an error in that sentence but I think I underlined "with adapting".</p>

165

<p>The one about the Chinese guy was the part with "succeeded with" - it's an incorrect idiom. It should have been "succeeded in."</p>

166

<p>i chose with adapting b/c it should be by adapting, I think.
for the porcupine lady i chose the one saying it was a warning about assent for contracts</p>

167

<p>I almosted said succeeded with but i chose E i think; I'm not too sure.</p>

168

<p>For the math question with {4,5,6} and {10,11,12}, what did you guys get as the answer?</p>

169

<p>ok more Qs and As on the reporter and the plato passages pllleeeeasssseeee....</p>

170

<p>For the math one, I got 5/9.</p>

171

<p>i got 30 for one of the questions...not sure if that's the one ur asking....</p>

172

<p>Alan, I do not remember any specific Qs from either of the two passages at the moment. Do u perhaps remember any? I definitely remember my answers.
Also for CR, did u guys get the short passage on black holes. If so - what was the answer to the Q about an analogy? The choices were like "a volcano explodes and increases the level of rainfall on another continent", "overfishing in a gulf increases the population of small fish", etc.</p>

173

<p>Julina, can you explain how you got 5/9 for that question? Thanks!</p>

174

<p>i put volcano but was TOTALLY confused beyond beleif on that one.</p>

<p>what was the vocab question with picayune? i dont remembe what it said</p>

175

<p>1) What questions did you have on the plato passages?
2) Julina, I said 4/9 for that one. Where's the fifth?
3) People who had 4 Critical Readings...Which one did you think was the experimental? There was one where the second sentence completion was really hard and vague...like some lady doing something with African culture in the carribean...Does this ring a bell?
4) Any other questions? this really helps figure out which ones I may have gotten right/wrong</p>

176

<p>i put volcano also</p>

177

<p>i said volcano for that one, it has to be right</p>

178

<p>MattM, I can't remember having a reading passage with a lady doing something with African culture in the carribean (unless it was the beaver passage and I totally overlooked any reference to the carribean), so that might be the experimental section.</p>

179

<p>Shina Laris, I'm not totally sure I got the correct answer but I'll give it a try. </p>

<p>Set A = (4,5,6)
Set B = (10,11,12)</p>

<p>The Q asked for the probability of seleting a multiple of 5 from the set if 2 numbers are multiplied together, right? OMG, I seriously hope they said "multiplied together"...Anyway, so the multiples of 5 are 40, 50, 55, 60, 60 - there are 5 of them. The total different numbers u could get if u multiplied one number from each set together would be 9 (because 3 x 3). So I got 5/9. Now if only someone would confirm the wording of the Q...</p>

<p>Sweetness, I put the volcano one as well but I agree it was totally confusing. The sentence completion with picayune was "Oren overlooked the overall significance of the play, noticing such minor points that they could only be considered __". The answer was picayune, meaning "paltry" or "insignificant".</p>

180

<p>volcano was wrong, air pollutants answer was right.</p>
