SAT CR Jan 2008

<p>perfunctory was right, i think</p>

<p>I thought strident was right?</p>

<p>perfunctory was a different question's answer, about some accused person.</p>

<p>i also believe the answer is not about developmental changes. because that part of the passage was talking about how the modern language was just as capable of rendering the beauty/unique essence of some original work as the original.</p>

<p>can anyone PLEASE remember the question or answer choices to the halt/cease sentence completion?</p>

<p>its very important. lol</p>

<p>unstinting was not the answer...since it means never stingy or not economical... that's why i put economical.</p>

<p>I have no idea what halt/cease was. Unless it was in the experimental section, it is wrong. Could it maybe be the sentence where the correct answer was contain/check??? That is the only one i can think of. </p>

<p>Can anyone remember the chimp answers????? ( other than the 2 listed a few pages back) No one seems to remember.</p>

<p>chimp? oh yes !! but which question are u on about?</p>

<p>I think there were 4 questions I can only remember 2. These are the 2:
MONKEY DUAL PASSAGES</p>

<p>1)human impulses
2)danger because kid shouldn’t jump to conclusions without research</p>

<p>Do you remember the other two? they are the only 2 i can't remember</p>

<p>Collegeboard's posted the section breakdown. Anyone recall the experimental sections?</p>

<p>If you took the black-and-white cover version of the SAT Reasoning Test on Saturday, January 26, 2008, you had one of two section orders. Your test was organized like this:</p>

<ol>
<li>Essay </li>
<li>Reading </li>
<li>Mathematics (includes SPR questions) </li>
<li>Mathematics </li>
<li>Reading (includes 2 long passages) </li>
<li>Equating (the one that doesn't count toward your score) </li>
<li>Writing </li>
<li>Mathematics </li>
<li>Reading </li>
<li>Writing </li>
</ol>

<p>OR, like this:</p>

<ol>
<li>Essay </li>
<li>Reading (includes 2 long passages) </li>
<li>Mathematics </li>
<li>Reading </li>
<li>Mathematics (includes SPR questions) </li>
<li>Equating (the one that doesn't count toward your score) </li>
<li>Writing </li>
<li>Reading </li>
<li>Mathematics </li>
<li>Writing</li>
</ol>

<p>I had the second option with experimental CR about Venice.</p>

<p>the "domesticated' question in the writing section, that was experimental, right?</p>

<p>RememberMe1990, the question you were talking about, with the copepods showing their abilities, that question was different from the one where they asked you like "what can you infer from the behavior of the tiny predators(turing invisible)?"(i put that the predators do not want to attract their own predators)</p>

<p>I don't think writing ever has an experimental since there are 2 MC and 1 essay.</p>

<p>Oh, hydee! I remember now....yeah there were two questions. I put that the author mentioned that "they too wanted to be invisible" because it showed their ability to catch prey (which I think is wrong, but was there a better answer?), and I also put that they did not want to grab their prey and glow for the other. Is that right?</p>

<p>anyone else get haphazard and something else for an answer? can't remember the question exactly...</p>

<p>Was the Saturday test the same as the Sunday test? If so I'm gonna be really ****ed off.</p>

<p>so whats the curve on this CR gonna look like?
i'm pretty sure i got -4 based on these answers, would that be 750+?</p>

<p>The small predators didn't want their prey to glow because the glowing would attract larger predators which would be able to eat the smaller predators.</p>

<p>I don't have any idea what the curve would be like. On one hand, most of it was actually pretty easy.</p>

<p>On the other hand, translating poetry...</p>

<p>The pessimist in me says it will be a harsh curve (which unfortunately is what I would bet on)</p>
