SAT Writing Question

<p>Can someone help me figure out this question?</p>

<p>A(Dispite) the attorney's moving plea, the judge B(placed) the juvenile offender C(on) probation for an D(indecisive) period. E(No Error)</p>

<p>The answer is D. Why?</p>

<p>I think it should be "undecided" instead of "indecisive"</p>

<p>I agree, but that seems like an odd problem.</p>

<p>Answer D is correct because the adjective "indecisive" is not a proper term to describe a period. How could a time period be indecisive? The correct term should be undecided.</p>

<p>D is correct because indecisive is an adjective used to describe living things.
As far as I know, a period isn't a living thing, so D has to be the mistake. I have to agree w/llabesab16 that it is an odd question.</p>

<p>It shouldn't be "undecided"; it should be "indefinite."</p>
