SAT1 Verbal Compilation

<p>No, that's the jewelry passage or actually I don't remember</p>

<p>symbolic...practical was something with goods like gold and jewels and how they have no utility - definitely an SC</p>

<p>i put symbolic..practical</p>

<p>i thought it was subsidary and theoretical..</p>

<p>yes Alex that was the diamond and gold SC that was correct. I do remember thinking about fiscal but they specifically mentioned not for money so that went right out the window.</p>

<p>instead of compiling it every 20 min, ill just wait til tomorrow nite maybe or someone else can take over if i am inactive for too long</p>

<p>on another note, i have 4 wrong for sure now (2 analogies, 2 CR), more depending on which questions belong to experimental</p>

<p>what do you think is the curve this time and how many wrong for 700? </p>

<p>last time i got 2 SC 4 ana 13 CR wrong</p>

<p>i improved CR without that much practice though, while my analogy skills have been utter crap lately.</p>

<p>I remember one about "offhand" and "pivotal"</p>

<p>Can we go over the stars and the jewlery sections??
stars
1. purpose of the passage
2. commenting on newton's statement
3. magic
4. seemingly calm?? (to contrast something)
5. author's attitute about the twinkling stars</p>

<p>jewlery
1. purpose of the guild
2. something common in art craft and art nuave</p>

<p>AHhhh! I screwed up the Analogies in the CHiMP section completely...and I probably messed up on the Jewelry passage...</p>

<p>Other ones were ez tho</p>

<p>sybolic practical.... is there any answer like ........... ornament? i might misread the question...stupid.....................................</p>

<p>astute
mitigate</p>

<p>Could someone please give me the sentences and any possilbe choices that they remember for those answers.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I didn't think it was the disenfranchised one. I thought it was the compromised/garnered one. Registered didn't seem right.</p>

<p>flipchick, I agree, I put compromised/garnered as well....</p>

<p>Wow ho ho ho. What's this compromise/garnered crap.</p>

<p>Can anyone give the question. I'm pretty sure they were "disenfranchised" which led them to register for a lawsuit. How can you garner a law suit?</p>

<p>they weren't registering for a lawsuit, they were "collecting" or "garnering" something in order to file for a lawsuit. I can't remember exactly what it said.</p>

<p>Garner is to acquire, or something like that, so you acquire a lawsuit? I dont know, it looked better to me....</p>

<p>Nevermind...just looked disenfranchised up....looks like it has to be it...</p>

<p>No it doesn't, either disenfranchised or compromised would work for the first part, the second part is the disputable part.</p>

<p>garner is usually used to discuss movable physical material or concepts. Like garnering hope or money. A lawsuit would sound and seem bad. Register is to enroll, which would make more sense when discussing a lawsuit.</p>

<p>Also, disenfranchised is a nice juicy SAT word that fits perfectly, although compromised would work, disenfranchised is very clean and direct, something ETS loves.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the exact phrasing. I just remember seeing that question and being convinced that there was something wrong with register, because they weren't registering for the lawsuit. It simply talked about a lawsuit, but not for that verb. I wish I could remember how it was worded!!!</p>

<p>I looked register up in the dictionary. Although it doesn't really fit perfectly with the context, I feel it works far better than garner does.</p>
