Rate the difficulty: October 2008

<p>What did you thinks of the test in terms of difficulty per section?
*Math: Easier than usual
Reading: About the same (easy vocab)
Writing: Easier than usual *
</p>

<p>Some people found the math to be not that easy, so I'm not too sure.
The writing was definitely not too difficult and the reading was around the same as usual.
Well..at least in my opinion..</p>

<p>agree w you on M,
however CR was a little trickier and so was W</p>

<p>Math: Extremely easy. (But I panicked and LEFT three-four questions :()
Reading: Easy vocabulary, but extremely boring passages.
Writing: Average. Passage Improvement was easy, though.
Essay: Not the best topic. Difficult to cite literary examples.</p>

<p>^I know how you feel about the math. I'm still kicking myself for MISSING one super easy problem..</p>

<p>I pretty much agree exactly with uttaresh. I'm expecting about 780M, 700CR, 750+ writing w/ a 10 E.</p>

<p>^1 wrong in math? I know I got 1 wrong for sure as well. It was a very easy problem that I will never forget..</p>

<p>shiomi, I know exactly how you feel. I do not know what I was thinking at that time because the problem I got wrong was extremely easy as well. Quite frustrated.</p>

<p>I got one wrong on the math in May. I have no idea what I got wrong and I didn't want to pay money for the Q&A service. I can feel your pain.</p>

<p>I'm not sure if I got one wrong. The only one I MIGHT have gotten wrong was the x-32<2 question. I don't remember what I put for the problem because I changed my answer (which is stupid because that's a ridiculously easy problem..I didn't read it enough).</p>

<p>^I did the same as well for a RIDICULOUSLY easy problem. The factor 40 one...
Please don't laugh</p>

<p>What was the answer to that one btw?</p>

<p>5/8 Apparently T_T</p>

<p>haha yay I got that right.</p>

<p>yup 5/8 .... .</p>

<p>m super easy
w easy
cr same</p>

<p>llpitch, did you choose A for that question? Because that was the only one that resulted in 30 < x < 34.</p>

<p>However, my error beats both of yours (if you did, in fact, get it wrong, llpitch). It was incredibly stupid.</p>

<p>haha what was your error Quixotic? </p>

<p>I dunno but I have a feeling I put the wrong answer down. I REALLY should have plugged in numbers instead of just vaguely remembering a problem like it and putting an answer I thought was right...jesus I'm stupid.</p>

<p>Well, my problem did not even involve numerical calculations like yours and shiomi's. It was the a/b = 1/k problem! That has to be the dumbest mistake! I mean, all you had to do was isolate the 1! How stupid! I cross-multiplied so that the variables became ak = b. I automatically left it as b, and because of that, my mind could not process any further. But all I had to do was divide both sides by b. Then again, I didn't even have to cross-multiply b and 1. I just had to do it for k! And I had a considerable amount of time left in that section. I even remember checking my answers! And I am the Math Team President at my school. How sad.</p>

<p>^^ I got that same problem wrong...I AM so pathetic...</p>

<p>math- VERY easy
writing- harder than usual
CR- VERY easy compared to June and May</p>
