SAT International December

<p>According to the March US thread, the curve isn’t going to be pretty.</p>

<p>Yeah, I chose 0 as well. </p>

<p>I got writing experimental. Pretty sure I was cross-eyed by the end of the test, ha.</p>

<p>@Marstatic - I put continuing explanation. The last paragraph didn’t have any mystery at all. The Prince’s activities were well documented after the summer.</p>

<p>@unobtanium - The author of the second passage was definitely mocking the scientist. He even compared the scientist to a perfumer who assigned musical notes to smells. The last line was a dead giveaway.</p>

<p>@amregysat : Yeah, I think it was something about him being eager to participate.</p>

<p>@unobtanium : I don’t remember that question from the smell/vibration passage. There was a question of that nature in the acupuncture one (the answer was that the author of passage 2 would disagree that there was evidence to suggest that acupuncture had benefits). Maybe if you quote some of the answers I’d remember it.</p>

<p>I think we should lodge a complaint with college board for giving us a recycled test.I mean what about guy who already had visited the thread:<a href=“***March 2014 SAT (US ONLY)*** - #136 by ThePariah - SAT Preparation - College Confidential Forums”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/1617265-march-2014-sat-us-only-p10.html&lt;/a&gt;
And they appeared in the december SAT .They technically knew many questions from the test.
By the way guy Iam not sulking.I am just saying.</p>

<p>grr</p>

<p>A couple questions:

  1. What did you guys put for the question that comes up in the passage about smell and Luca Turin? The really confusing one about what passage 2 would be most critical about? I was confused between ‘other smelled like anise’ and ‘some buzz receptors blah blah’…
  2. What was the answer for the second to last question in the Prince passage? Was the purpose of last paragraph to summarize or the further explain?</p>

<p>@hyps2018 - I don’t remember the question, but the author of passage 2 was mocking Luca Turin because his(her?) theory was largely based on the idea that certain smells were or weren’t similar, which is completely subjective. Like I said, I don’t remember the question or the answer choices, but I imagine the author would disagree with any statement suggesting there is evidence to support Turin’s theory.</p>

<p>The last paragraph continued his explanation. It was about events after the ‘missing’ summer which the rest of the passage discussed, so it definitely was not a summary.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the math question about the weights of the textbooks or something like that? I think I put choice E, but I can’t remember what it was.</p>

<p>It had something to do with social ,literature, math and some other books weight and one day a guy went to the library to grab his usual books and took a wrong book by mistake. if his usual books weight 3.8 which two books did the guy confuse? i think it wasn’t E.</p>

<p>Does anyone know where we can get access to the March 2014 USA Sat pdf document?</p>

<p>Also what did you guys write for the informed speculation or rudimentary hypothesis problem?</p>

<p>I said informed speculation</p>

<p>I chose informed speculation for that one as well.</p>

<p>There were two possible combinations of books with a weight difference of 0.4 but both books in one pair were among the 3 he picked up so the answer was the other pair.</p>

<p>@LGRW40‌ The answer was science and literature. I don’t exactly remember whether it was A or B, but I’m quite sure it was sci and lit.</p>

<p>math was alright, I mean nothing super hard, might have omitted 1-3 questions
cr was a little difficult, it just took a lot of time and analyzing omitted maybe 2?
Writng ehh one or two tricky ones but thats it </p>

<p>what do u mean experimental?</p>

<p>@hyps2018‌ After thinking about it, yes I believe I put science and literature. Thanks</p>

<p>Did anyone have a CR section with a vocab question about William Penn’s lifestyle or something like that? Was it experimental?</p>
