Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>Here's how it works. The subsequent poster answers the question of the previous poster with an explanation and then post one question they found to be hard. I think this would help us prepare for the sentence completion part of the reading section. I'll begin:</p>

<p>

<p>A) repertory .. expendable

<p>I cut it down between B and E, but I ultimately chose E... hmm</p>

<p>Please post where you got the sentence completion from. The distinction between a Collegeboard Sentence completion and a Kaplan/PR one is important to me.</p>

<p>WWW. DICTIONARY.COM</p>

6

<p>^ or you could do it for your own benefit and not use a dictionary. Your benefit or your loss.</p>

<p>i was answering Phades question, but thanks for that lolly! Surely you do not believe i would do such a thing ! Looking up the words before answering the sentence completion question? thats blasphemy! I actually attempt the questions first and then use the dictionary to check my answers tyvm. Is the answer to your question A?</p>

8

<p>yeah i think the answer to lolilaughed ? is A and Phade is Surly B</p>

<p>lolilaughed: Answer is B. In option E the word "cited" doesn't fit.

14

<p>To make this game easier, can the original poster of the question just post the answer a couple lines down, in order to avoid confusion as to what question people are trying to answer.</p>

15

<p>The answer to my question is E. I got it from test 4, section 9 of the official guide.</p>

<p>The whole point of this "game" is to see how others would tackle a question in a way that you failed to do.</p>
