<p>Hey guys, I know most of you dismiss the question of the day as mostly "easy" or "mediums" but it turns out that every once in a while they include a question that stumps the majority of responders. Today's question is one such. </p>

<p>I partly suspect that the college board uses these questions to screen for possible question types to use in later tests--in short, serving the same function as the segment on the real test that doesn't count.</p>

<p>Anyway it may be a good idea to have a thread dedicated to the official SAT question of the day.</p>

<p>I thought it was extremely easy...but idk</p>

3

<p>that was tricky. the only reason i got it right was b/c i knew what veneer meant. ( i got lucky).</p>

4

<p>I noticed with the Question of the Days that there's hardly ever a 'hard' CR or Writing question. However, there are frequent 'hard' math questions.</p>

5

<p>Honestly, i use to get a lot of the CR problems wrong, with the Words. But i started memorizing some words from Kaplan List, and im pretty good at them now. Hopefully that will pick me up points to make up for the stupid passages.</p>

6

<p>that wasn't that hard..
"frill", "veneer" helps
and the rest don't make too much sense</p>

7

<p>lol yeah it was easy, nothing else really makes sense.</p>

8

<p>oh haha, ok nevermind.. the person who posted, posted this yesterday.. so the question would be different!
please disregard that.

<p>I find that the SAT Question of the Days are far easier than the Q's on the actual test...</p>

10

<p>Yes - these questions are usually super easy.</p>

11

<p>They're much easier than the real thing.</p>

12

<p>I'm wondering why they don't allow us to edit our posts.</p>

<p>Anyway, what I meant with my initial post is that OCCASIONALLY they post a question that confounds the majority of the people who answer it.</p>

<p>Most of the time the questions are ridiculously easy with 80% people getting it right...occasionally there's a situation though where only 40% get it right. Those aren't necessarily easy.</p>
