SAT CR Jan 2008

<p>i thought it was thorough and systematic because after her examples, she was like "and other attributes..." or something that made me think there were more and they were thorough</p>

<p>Well...it also said the dad's comments were concise, so thorough seems to contradict that. I mean, I dunno, but I thought it was humorous because it described a scene where the brothers would snicker comically while the parents pointed out these foolish idealisms. Also, it's innocent since the dad wasn't really trying to pick on her; the entire account was just a relaxing tale, imo.</p>

<p>What was the one about two girls who wanted to improve in journalism but were disappointed in the editor’s help?</p>

<p>how come i dont remebmer that? choices? and if you culd, could you look at my questions i posted earlier?</p>

<p>Explode,
"Guy who had opinions but didn’t argue- Polemical -- yes, but there was another close choice, anybody remember?"</p>

<p>The other choice was "sentimental, litigious" but that was wrong.</p>

<p>It was definitely thorough and systematic...The answer the the next question was "irritating - her parent's comprehensive critique" and comprehensive is synonymous to thorough and systematic.</p>

<p>For the robotics passage, did anyone hypothesize that Neel Belani will quit?</p>

<p>I hope that passage was experimental - Heck, everything that Neel does is experimental.</p>

<p>i think that passage was experimental ^ (robots).. i didnt get it?</p>

<p>i know sentimetal , litigious was wrong, but was there another one... lol</p>

<p>Did anyone here take the SAT? I heard they offer one in January these days. Can someone please verify this? I'm thinking of taking it this week.</p>

<p>2 questions that really screwed me over and the reason y i almost didn't finish the second CR passage!:</p>

<p>"Carlyle- Was someone every educated person should know"</p>

<p>I agree with slshi "i got his thinking was not relavant to most peoples daily lives or whatever.."
dunno y though...none of them made sense</p>

<p>also, the passage was about personal account?
Can't remmeber if i changed it. I remember that was (e) with something about cultural development (was there development), (c) was something about history, and (d) i can't remember.</p>

<p>I didn't read the passage so im not sure</p>

<p>also, y was "Somehow they all picked me- unsurprised at the panelist’s decision" when there is a "somehow" there.</p>

<p>definitely a personal account....
and "Carlyle- Was someone every educated person should know" ... that's what I put.</p>

<p>sarcasm buddy</p>

<p>"Guy who had opinions but didn’t argue- Polemical -- yes, but there was another close choice, anybody remember?"</p>

<p>The other choice was "sentimental, litigious" but that was wrong.</p>

<p>i know sentimetal , litigious was wrong, but was there another one... lol
anything else?</p>

<p>oh what did you all put for that one analogy question, does anyone rember about the submarines coming up to recharge is like... i put a crab out of its shell</p>

<p>I put crab out of its shell too. I am 100% sure that answer was correct.</p>

<p>yeah i was thinking along the lines of "the submarine would be vulnerable... and needs to hide"</p>

<p>the other one i was considering was the shark cuz it's armed, but it didn't go as well</p>

<p>

That Sherlock Holmes passage, "surprised disbelief" at his friend's gullibilty, right? I was debating between that one and "shock at unexpected revelation"
aiyaaa</p>

<p>What was the answer for the sum of the 50th and 51st terms?
f(-1) and g(2) or whatever was 0?
ummm, regressive, convoluted, blah blah
What about the question with the kids who generously helped to renovate...was the "to" not necessary?</p>

<p>I too debated between "unexpected revelation" and "surprised disbelief" and in the end I chose "surprised disbelief." I think that's correct.</p>

<p>Edit: Wait, I just remembered I did put unexpected revelation.</p>

<p>ssbands, for the function one, I am fairly certain it was in fact 0.
Anyways, I think we should probably keep the math questions in the math thread, CR in the CR thread etc.</p>

<p>i dont think it's friends gullibility... gullibility implies "easy to be fooled into believeing something" ... his friend was not gullible.</p>

<p>i put revelation</p>
