PSAT Wednesday,October 17- How was it??

<p>does anyone remember a question about a bill/legislation in congress?? its been a few days since the psat though lol</p>

<p>OMG. so i'm not crazy!
i got DDDD too... like at the end of the identify-error- section?</p>

<p>then i changed it to DDCD cause... DDDD was too weird.
who knows.</p>

<br>


<br>

<p>I got 3 no errors
the ribbon shirt question
the Europa question
the Beatles question</p>

<p>Anyone remember an identifying sentence error question about some song or band inspiring another band?...Vague i know, sorry..</p>

<p>that was the beatles question</p>

<p>o ok good thanks
i really wish i knew the answer to the its being passed question ugh</p>

<p>Also on Writing, improving paragraphs, did you put a sentence like "People don't get to know Roger's warm personality because he's shy" on what should be added to one of the paragraphs?</p>

<p>i hope it was no error, as that's what i put. lol.</p>

<p>im really annoyed because i was an idiot and totally missed that it said "had rose" instead of "had risen" in one of those fricken questions. I wish I could just call up the college board and inform them that I know the past participle of rise and that I was just a flake. :(</p>

<p>Anyone remember the full dentifying sentence error question talking about an immense ocean and what you put for your answer?</p>

<p>^ ohh yeahh. I remeber that one. I put no error. I think. lol</p>

<p>Does anyone remember if 8 was an answer choice on the math question:
x^2+16x+a=(x+b)^2, what does a equal?</p>

<p>I really hope it wasn't...i think i might have got confused and put 8 instead of 64</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure there were 3 no errors:
Ribbon shirt
Beatles
Legislation (unless C "its" poorly refers to opponents)</p>

<p>Can anyone else remember their answer for the "For every opinion there is an opposite opinion that goes against it" sentence improvement question?</p>

<p>ya i put "there is an opposite opinion"</p>

<p>There is an opposite opinion. </p>

<p>64 was the correct answer.</p>

<p>For the legislation one, its being passed is definitely incorrect grammar... I remember reading the original sentence and I'm 99% positive that it was D or something like that.</p>

<p>"The men, angry about the bill, clamored around the building to prevent
its being passed."</p>

<p>No one says that, seriously. Prevent it from being passed, prevent its passage. I want to say that it's idiomatically incorrect, but I am not sure if that is the right term to use for this situation.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, and for the rs one, it was r = 0. If you graph a line on your calculator, any line you try to reflect across the x-axis will intersect the original line on the y-axis.</p>

<p>^ Okay. That's what I got and that's what I did!
Yay. I'm excited about math. haha</p>

<p>Procrastination, that is incorrect. The answer is s = 0. Any line you reflect about the x axis must intersect the original on the x axis. Consider y = 2x + 1. Reflecting across the x axis, the new line is y= -2x -1. (-1/2,0) is a point on both of them, and it is on the x axis. (0,2), which is what you are saying, works for original but not reflection</p>

<p>thank goodness....i agree i just did the same thing on my calculator and they intersect on the x axis, therefore y must equal 0 (s was the y coordinate so s=0)</p>

<p>the answer was s=0 </p>

<p>Im 99.9% positive</p>

<p>Err... Thats what I meant. Sorry I wasn't thinking properly. Scratch what I said. Was the answer "B"? I guess I don't remember what I answered....</p>

<p>Yeah, s=0 was B.</p>
