<p>i think “Having never seen” is better than ’ never having seen", i wonder we had that one instead.</p>
<p>I think you guys are right. I remember the gerund “having” was only in one answer choice.</p>
<p>wait how is having never seen better than “never having seen”?</p>
<p>@snargaluff: yeah, I guess 1 omit and -3 could be a 750 if you had 10, 11 or 12 on the essay. It all depends on the curve though. On a bad day, it could be 680-720… and then it could also be 720-760.</p>
<p>Wasn’t the sunflower one a verb tense question?</p>
<p>There was only one choice where standing and drooping were in the same tense.</p>
<p>Whooooaaaa. the never having seen one… I think only one of them was available… they wouldnt put “never having seen” and “having never seen”. ???</p>
<p>What is wrong with “revising” lol?</p>
<p>@snargaluff: it just sounds better. plus, having+ adv of frequency is a structure often used.</p>
<p>@JNE23
they say its
“the sunflowers stood, their heads drooping.” </p>
<p>my incorrect answer was
“the sunflowers standing, their heads drooped.” I guess I blanked out a lil bit during the test. :(</p>
<p>@1a1: i kind of agree with what somebody posts earlier, before she revised it is better ithink.</p>
<p>i didn’t find anything wrong with the revising</p>
<p>When it comes to the writing section. If the choice sounds the LEAST bit suspicious, its probably wrong.</p>
<p>@Lobzz - about the revising question, I disagree: there are plenty of times when CB wants you to pick an answer because it sounds funny but may be grammatically correct.</p>
<p>^^^ Amen to that, especially towards the end of the writing section were theres many idioms</p>
<p>@1a1: Your absolutely right. The thing is, how right does this sound?</p>
<p>Mary never turned in her research papers until revising them.</p>
<p>as opposed to…</p>
<p>Mary never turned in her reasearch papers until she revised them.</p>
<p>Turned and revising dont work together… past tense and progressive tense???</p>
<p>Exactly. It should be “had revised”.</p>
<p>I got revising. Right answer.</p>
<p>Agreed, it should be she had revised in order to be right</p>
<p>Ah, OK, thanks I see now.</p>
<p>So do we officially only have 3 no errors?</p>
<p>Did we ever solve the “never having seen”/“having never seen” debate and the “more than”/“greater than” debate?</p>
