<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>The guys on the other thread see to be discussing a different version of the test that was administered across international test centres today.</p>

<p>How about we discuss questions from this version of the test?</p>

2

<p>Whoops. It’s supposed to January 2013 and the other thread is from last year. Made the same sloppy mistake.</p>

<p>Anyway, let’s start discussing, everyone.</p>

3

<p>Aren’t you an international?? Those were in the International SAT too.</p>

<p>Am I getting you wrong? I don’t think there are different versions of international SAT.</p>

4

<p>I’m an international student. Did you take the same test in the US?</p>

5

<p>The versions are different among international students as well I believe, as my test (from Guam, so it should be the international test) had none of the passages above.</p>

6

<p>Ugh I did a fourth CR section but I can’t remember it :(</p>

7

<p>Yes i remember that passage,it was the hardest of them all :o</p>

8

<p>Those were in the international students exam.
How did you do on the essay? I went with a personal experience example and am not really happy about it.</p>

9

<p>I gave examples from Scarlet letter and tried involving gandhi,but it was hard to come up with examples</p>

10

<p>Did you guys have a different prompt than me?</p>

11

<p>^Same with me.
I wasted the 4-5 of minutes thinking of examples and I still had nothing.
Wrote one and a half pages. It was ghastly</p>

12

<p>I used To Kill a Mockingbird and Lord of the Flies.</p>

13

<p>I used Harry Potter and Cars 2. I don’t they’ll be impressed</p>

14

<p>I guess you guys got a different prompt than me, as I have no idea of how’d you use these examples in my prompt lol.</p>

15

<p>What wwas your prompts guys?</p>

16

<p>Well, I could almost not think of any examples for mine. The TKAM and LOTF ones were sort of twisted, but I think I expressed it well enough. I wrote 2 pages, anyway.</p>

17

<p>Wait how did you use those two books to support it?</p>

18

<p>That would require me to disclose the prompt.</p>

19

<p>yes i got the cameras in a courtroom. sooo hard!</p>

20

<p>Imagine! - urge to take sailor’s point of view vs mark something relief that they found the land??? I chose latter…</p>
