<p>yes I had 2 experimental writing sections… Among your classmates you are likely to have the version of the test but around the country it differs</p>

<p>anyone who had experimental math can we recall this gift wrapping question? what was it asking?
i know i had experimental math but really do not recall this question and am trying to figure out which section was not legitimate.
it wasnt in a grid in section right? because i only had 1 grid in</p>

<p>today was my first time taking the sat
I’ve been doing princeton practice tests all week,
i honestly the actual to be easier than the Princeton.
how did u find it? was this one easier than others?</p>

<p>quick question
for the passages by the professor and the president of some school, there was a question asking about rhetorical devices used by the professor in one of his long paragraphs. i said conjecture. couldn’t decide between that and analogical reasoning.</p>

<p>i went with conjecture cuz i couldn’t really find any analogy. is that correct?</p>

<p>I mean 2 25 min writing sections, 1 being experimental ofc</p>

<p>@educatedblackman
but what do u think is gonna happen to my scores if i sent them to the college and i didn’t even apply there yet…</p>

<p>ihatecolllegebrd the general consensus (one of the sentence completitions :P) is that the answer was conjecture, repetition, or analogical reasoning… Nobody is really sure lol but thats why there is a curve on CR I suppose</p>

<p>i honestly think it was metaphorical (A) because in the first paragraph he compares the faculty who think in that manner to a hopeless army or something like that…lol</p>

<p>I like what you did there, educatedblackie, do you remember any more sentence completions?</p>

<p>En3g the question on rhetorical devices pertained to the second paragraph only. Boi</p>

<p>hmm no sorry alargeblackman I have trouble remembering the questions but I can usually recall the answers I put once I hear them :p</p>

<p>the second still referenced it to an army and a lost cause</p>

<p>the first just introduced the notion</p>

<p>comparing astronomers to musicians: share similar experiences as novices
-simile between sky and lens: there is a perfect spot for viewing
-reflective and informative
-shares a special account
-ephemeral but powerful
Then there was this one q in which two options were about resolution and magnification, those were wrong but can’t remember the right answer</p>

<p>this is a link to the very contentious rhetorical strategy
about passage 1 question</p>

<p>Please explain to me how he can objectively say his argument is true, and if you are unable to, please explain how that is not thus a conjecture. If you cant do that either: tits or ■■■■</p>

<p>@shaydizzle1 I don’t know. According to About.com (A part of the New York Times Company), “Repetition of the same word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses or verses.” I’m not very familiar with literature, but one word repetition was still repetition in my English classes.
There is repetition in that passage… I honestly don’t remember the second passage very well. However, this is not a comparison. The question asked only about passage 1. Additionally, there were italics above each passage describing their qualifications or something. No?</p>

<p>does anyone know which reading section was experimental?</p>

<p>for that question with the cotton it was I, II, III because the top five states had 10.75 million crops while america as a whole had 14.9 and we also know that the last state on the list( i forgot its name) had to be less 1…it could be any value lower than 1 it doesnt matter so to solve u do 14.9-10.75= 4.15… now you know that if its at least 5 then it has to be lower than 1 so when u divide by 5 it equals .83 which checks out and to further check your work if u do 4.15 divided 4 it equals 1.0375 which does not check out…also for those of you saying it has to be eight your basing your number of theories there is not concrete way of saying what the last state had…they were crops that were not entirely filled to the fullest so i could basically be any number…and if u did 8 then it equals .5 something which does work out but its not the least…</p>

<p>I had a math experimental section… kind of freaking out about how few math problems I actually got to in general.
I think I probably did a 750 on CR, which is good for my first time. The only one I know I got wrong was one about a girl who took notes in class and studied a lot… I wasn’t sure if it was assiduous or truculent and put truculent (ugh I don’t know why). Anyone else remember that one?</p>

<p>On another note, we didn’t start until 9:30 because we were waiting on 2 people that never showed. That was freaking annoying.</p>

<p>DID YOU GUYS HAVE A QUESTION THAT ASKED FOR R/V IN TERMS OF T? Want to know if this math section was experimental. </p>

<p>It also had the length of an arc and a triangle with extended lines asking to find angle z.</p>
