<p>the one that asked for the 7s in 1000 was choice B, 728.</p>

<p>i am absolutely positive. when i got home i counted every single one by hand. i kid you not</p>

<p>On the first CR section the question with choices suspect, noteworthy, commonplace?</p>

<p>Which one was it?</p>

<p>why is explanation of wrong?</p>

<p>Damn. That makes two incorrect for math…</p>

<p>@sephora2 i said noteworthy</p>

<p>@shaheiruddin</p>

<p>i got the same answer as a lot of people for this own but i did it in a different way.</p>

<p>So first you have 999 numbers. 100 of these have 7 in the ones place. 90 have these have 7 in the tens place that dont already have 7 in the ones place. and 81 have 7 in the hundreds place that dont already have 7 in the ones or tens place (be careful with 777).</p>

<p>So 999-100-90-81 = 728</p>

<p>I said noteworthy…</p>

<p>i said noteworthy also.</p>

<p>well, I wasn’t sure if it was maybe supposed to be “explanation FOR,” so…idk…</p>

<p>@ sephora2: i put noteworthy.</p>

<p>@jacques yeah i was considering that too, but explanation of sounded alright, so i picked no error… i dunno.</p>

<p>I’m like 99% sure it was noteworthy.</p>

<p>Okay, the CR question with Victor the actor and the word histrionic was “emote”</p>

<p>Who put what for the English woman/Native American one? I put halcyon/onerous but I’m starting to doubt myself…</p>

<p>I skipped 2 sentence completions because I knew such few words that I couldn’t even really confidently eliminate more than 1. The sentence completions were much harder than usual.</p>

<p>@ klatte yeah i got emote for victor too
and i put halcyon and onerous</p>

<p>it was No error.</p>

<p>I think I might’ve gotten 80 on the writing.
Did anyone get like 3 Cs near the end of those type of questions.</p>

<p>im predictign 60 CR 67 Math and 74 Writing</p>

<p>Hopefully enough for commendation. All I need.</p>

<p>yeah, i got emote and halcyon/onerous too</p>

<p>I got 9/13 4 wrong on vocab not bad.</p>

<p>can somebody compile all the answers.</p>

<p>omg… this is looking really good for me. it seems like all of the cr that i had questions on … i am getting right? maybe i could get an 80!!! </p>

<p>i dont want to jinx though…</p>

<p>I was super surprised that they put cheerful/angry. It made me kinda happy :P</p>

<p>we should do that yeah…</p>

<p>okay should we start with cr section1?</p>
