PSAT '09 Form W Thread

<p>Same. I was looking through the conversion table a minute ago. It doesn’t make any sense to me…</p>

<p>what was the I option for the question about which must be true
because I’m pretty sure it was only II</p>

<p>I still don’t know why it was 60</p>

<p>I guessed 90 cus 90x4 = 360</p>

<p>All it said was that the shaded region had an averaged value that was congruent with the unshaded region</p>

<p>so 2a= (b+b)/2 (arithmetic mean)</p>

<p>which = 2b/2 = b</p>

<p>so 2a=b</p>

<p>Aghh! Don’t say any of the questions, I haven’t taken it yet! lol</p>

<p>huh? r u taking the Saturday test? it is different</p>

<p>yeah… the saturday test is different…</p>

<p>so 2a= (b+b)/2 (arithmetic mean)</p>

<p>which = 2b/2 = b</p>

<p>so 2a=b </p>

<p>Right, and 2(60) = 120.</p>

<p>O is it different? Never mind:) Please continue, this is good practice for me haha</p>

<p>anymore opinions on the resentment vs. disdain question</p>

<p>or the limitations of study vs. disputing accuracy question?</p>

<p>No? </p>

<p>Arithmetic mean of both sides are the same</p>

<p>2a/2 = 2b/2
a=b?</p>

<p>did I read the question wrong></p>

<p>but it was a line = 180 degrees
and the unshaded (a) and shaded (b) were on one half of the circle
so a+2b=180</p>

<p>…right??</p>

<p>I recall it being 60s and 120s, since the average of the 120s is 120, and the sum of the 60s is 120.</p>

<p>also,
i got resentment and limitations of study</p>

<p>@hosain and RAlec
I think we all took different meanings from that question. Without it right in front of me, I’m just not sure. I’m just gonna wait until december I guess :/</p>

<p>I’m almost positive the answer was 60 degrees… I don’t remember my reasoning for that choice though, I only remember that I was confident that it was correct.</p>

<p>can someone plz state the exact question n the exact choices. its so confusing</p>

<p>for the limitations thingy</p>

<p>How much, on average, does your score improve from sophomore year to junior year. (Sophomore Year PSAT Score Approximate: 210 - 220)</p>

<p>This may not be fit for this forum, but oh well . . .</p>

<p>I got 186 as a freshman, but I was tired and stomachache from eggs. </p>

<p>This year was almsot worse, I didn’t get much sleep but wasn’t that tired but I had a huge stomachache from banana but thankfully my Spanish teacher lets you go to the bathroom. (PSAT after Spanish)</p>

<p>And my stupid proctor said we couldn’t use calculators on the math so I had to correct him and he teaches AP Calc AB</p>

<p>I’m shooting for 220 this year. I think I got 80 on math mabe 7x on CR but I ran out of time on writing so I had 3 left so I’m hoping for just a 65.</p>
