<p>Thewisejew sorry i wasnt trying to say the question was about contrasting the 2 paragraphs, i was just highlighting how passage one didnt have the concreteness of passage two, and, thus it seemed like a conjecture, as it didnt have any findings or anything associated with the claim that catalyzing moral development would in turn hinder education</p>

<p>But lets just wait till june 21 cause honestly im in the dark on tht one</p>

<p>there was one sentence completion that was something along the lines of:
“susan was remarkably _____ about her studies: she listened in class and took diligent notes”
what was it? I put supercilious</p>

<p>Hey I just read the whole thread and decided to make an account. </p>

<p>My memory is a little foggy on some questions but I have to agree with @alargeblackman on the cotton problem. I had 3 minutes to work that problem, I and II were obvious, III took estimation based on the picture and every way I worked it out, there had to be more than 5 states. </p>

<p>From reading this whole thread it appears I have done decent, however I feel distant from some of you “elitists” who are scoring 2000+.</p>

<p>@koheesive, that’s the one I was talking about. I put truculent but I think it was assiduous.</p>

<p>Yeah but they never said the graph wasn’t drawn to scale, therefore estimation was a practical strategy. Also you can’t just assume NC was any number less than one.</p>

<p>What’d you guys get for the short passage reading about poetry that was like “what is the purpose of the italics”? I was stuck between reemphasizing a point and qualiying something.</p>

<p>@jiggoha I don’t remember that, it was probably experimental.</p>

<p>Also, because the cotton question was the last of the section, wouldn’t it be hard or at least medium? I put I, II, and III, but looking back on it, the obvious answer doesn’t seem to be correct.</p>

<p>Cool, thanks.
I don’t know why there’s so much controversey surrounding the cotton question. I’m pretty sure it was all three. I even calculated the amount for NC and I got .75 (which would make III true), so yeah… unless I read the premises incorrectly. They did tell us the total amount of cotton represented on the graph, no?</p>

<p>@divergentpaths yeah, definitely assiduous. ■■■ that’s my second wrong answer so far ajghaiurhgkajhf</p>

<p>Can someone please answer my question? :(</p>

<p>@jiggoha, it’s only facts I and II that were true. I don’t see why there’s such a huge controversy over it being that it’s so simple. It’s SAT math. It’s not supposed to be hard.</p>

<p>I know the feeling. I literally spent the last several minutes of the section going back and forth between assiduous and truculent.</p>

<p>@lollypop7218, I had that one too, but I didn’t get it right. I think it might have been experimental.</p>

<p>Didn’t mean to offend or sound pretentious. Sorry.</p>

<p>@jiggoha, the last problem is usually the most difficult, I don’t know why but this SAT Math seemed extremely fishy and a little too easy.</p>

<p>The controversy behind the cotton problem, is that 1. Everyone remembers it as the ridiculously easy picture graph problem, so everyone is going to talk about it and 2. People want to stand by their answer, no one wants to be wrong. </p>

<p>The only time anyone will truly know (besides the a-holes at College Board) is on June 21.</p>

<p>@lollypop7218</p>

<p>I’m definite that I had a math experimental section (I had four math sections) but to be honest, I don’t remember any questions. </p>

<p>The r/v in terms of t rings a bell…I feel like the answer had a 2 in it somewhere…</p>

<p>Sorry my reply is so iffy and indefinite. :(</p>

<p>For the question about the watchers and the sphinx, were the people “purposefully decietful” or “understandably unreliable”?</p>

<p>@jiggoha I’m sorry if I sounded that way, I didn’t mean to sound accusatory or anything, really! It’s just that throughout this entire thread, that question has been a constant controversy (for no reasonnnnnn)</p>

<p>I created an account just to say that I am sure it was all three on the cotton question. Because there were a total of 4.15 million acres of cotton left after states shown in the graph, there could not have been four states or less with cotton unless at least one if them had more than 1 million acres. We know this cannot be true because one of the top states (NC) had less than 1 million acres. This logic works for any amount of acrage that NC had between 0 and 999 thousand acres of cotton.</p>
