<p>Just talked to my niece. She said that PRATTLE, ORACULAR, ANTITHESIS, and DIRGE were all SC answers. She must have thanked me a hundred times for sending her a copy of Direct Hits. She said it was a huge help.</p>

42

<p>Ugh…now i have to make a new aim account. h/o. atleast its better than this 60 second thing</p>

43

<p>I got prelude, not dirge for that one question… just checked… im wrong :cry:
and antithesis was part of the question about the olympic athlete, not the question itself…
and i got prattle…</p>

44

<p>Antithesis was a word in the question, not an answer</p>

45

<p>ANTITHESIS was a word in one of the SC’s. It wasn’t an answer choice.</p>

46

<p>Anyone remember the answer to the olympic swimmer one?</p>

47

<p>surly and honorable</p>

48

<p>argh i cant find the chatroom</p>

49

<p>U R right. Surly and honorable would be opposites. ELAN was also an SC answer.</p>

50

<p>On writing:</p>

<ol>
<li>The one with “My mother…knows my abilities better than myself.” Was myself wrong or was it no error? I chose myself because I thought it should be “I” or “I do.”</li>
</ol>

51

<p>yeah i put surly and honorable
i put elan for the dancer one i think…</p>

52

<p>myself was wrong.</p>

53

<p>I said myself was wrong…
and yay! elan was right</p>

54

<p>i put the myself one too
for the paragraph thing…what did you guys get for like sentence yada yada yada could best be improved by? (i kno there were a lot like that sry…)</p>

<p>i just remember thinking my answer was super wordy</p>

55

<p>Alright, and for the 2 math ones with the a and b variables…</p>

<p>1 was something like “a^b=64 where a and b are both positive integers. How many numbers can a be?” It would be 4, no? 2, 4, 8, and 64?</p>

<p>The other was the same type of question, I forget exactly how it was though…</p>

56

<p>Does anyone remember any answer choices for the swimmer one?</p>

57

<p>it was like what should be inserted at the beginning</p>

58

<p>lol you’ll need to be more specific awesomemath… was it the combine two sentences one?</p>

59

<p>Yeah, I put down 4 for that one too.</p>

60

<p>was it the first paragraph or second? i vaguely remmeber it</p>
