<p>Thanks Funkie! I think I got those both right :)</p>
<p>What was the question about where they gave like
4,5,5,6,6,7,x and you had to find x?
I said 5.5 but it seemed so simple that I feel I got it wrong…
Also, what was the one about the eulogist? I said remonstrate but I think that’s wrong as well.
And what about the one that had the options of a historical account and a personal analogy? I was about to say analogy (because they are) but I didn’t think it was “personal” from the author. I might have said the historical one, I forget though.</p>
<p>Oh well, I’m a sophomore so there’s room to improve before the National Merit Scholarship!</p>
<p>wait for the hybrid car one, it was B right? (or the one that was “were”)
I know this is already in the huge answer compilation, but just verifying.</p>
<p>wasnt a personal analogy, it said personal anecdote, but it is indeed analogy</p>
<p>do you rmbr how/why you got the answer 5 for the OP question? i dont rmbr what i put but im pretty sure i know the process i solved it with</p>
<p>oh right! okay well I remember I didn’t do the personal one, so I hope I said anecdote!</p>
<p>any predictions -3cR, -0M, -2W</p>
<p>that will most likely be CR:74, M: 80, W: 76 = 230</p>
<p>GoodJobBro, I put the public efforts one for 24 too.</p>
<p>Also, does anyone remember exactly what the union question asked? Because if it’s just the elements in the union, it’s m+k-2.</p>
<p>collegebound666, I also got 2 for two grid-in’s. They were lined up vertically, so like 38 and 34 possibly?</p>
<p>Hmmm -3 CR -1W and -4 math?</p>
<p>(I know I did bad, I am a sophomore so hopefully I can improve)</p>
<p>Thx kayshoe</p>
<p>Here’s a conversion table for all of you who keep asking: </p>

<p>What do you think would be a -8 CR, -2 M, and -2 W?</p>
<p>oh man i feel like im just at the mark between being semi and not being a semi. does anyone know how much the cutoffs fluctuate from year to year?</p>
<p>Looking at the chart (which seems unnecessarily confusing lol) it says I would get around a 225 to 230 with my estimated scores, but realistically it’s probably less than that, so I’m hoping for at least a 215.</p>
<p>Ok, well I had to go to a cross country meet right after so I forgot a lot of the test. At first I thought I wasn’t NMS because I got a lot wrong, but reading these answers is making me feel better, I think I was M0, CR-3.75 (possibly more), W-1(that was posted, could easily be a bunch more).</p>
<p>I just have a few questions:
- I still don’t understand Ominous, I put Morbid
- Does anyone remember a question like “A Woman expecting children need to take iron supplements to help <strong>them maintain their</strong> energy”? I put <strong>her maintain her</strong>. Also I could be remembering the sentence wrong.
- What was the problem having to do with finding a cure for diseases/viruses? It might be mitigate that it goes along with but I’m not sure.</p>
<p>One more question, the answer is posted as this “Than that of any monarch”, what would you have inserted to get this answer? I’m guessing either <em>than that of any</em> or just <em>any</em>.</p>
<ol>
<li>first of all, it couldn’t be morbid because it didn’t have to do with death…
ominous = foreboding/threatening… the author was talking about the “dark side” of what “databasification” could mean for the future, and i would say the opportunity for government abuse of it is ominous</li>
<li>i put that too</li>
<li>something about a doctor not being content to only ___ a disease but rather aiming to eradicate it or something… i put mitigate too</li>
</ol>
<p>I totally disagree that flipping the switch was wrong. it sounded horrible and you want to scold the PSAT people for writing such bad sentences, but there was no grammatical error.</p>
<p>also, what was the whole question for the one in math where 8 was the answer?</p>
