<p>No one is [more sorrier than me] that you missed the awards ceremony.</p>
<p>a - more sorrier than me
b- sorrier than I
c - more sorry like myself
d - as sorry like I am
e - sorrier but me</p>
<p>The correct answer is B, but i chose A. Why is the answer B? In choice B, the usage of I seems wrong to me.</p>
<p>Is this a question from the SAT today/ If so, I’d prefer not to answer. If not, then I’d be glad to help. =)</p>
<p>No, its not a question from today’s SAT.</p>
<p>Okay, then. =)</p>
<p>First off, A isn’t right b/c “more sorrier” is a little redundant, since “sorrier” by itself means “more sorry.”</p>
<p>As for the use of “I”…sorry is an emotion, so what the sentence is actually trying to convey is:</p>
<p>“No one is sorrier than I <em>am</em> that you missed the awards ceremony.”</p>
<p>In this case, “sorry” is the predicate adjective describing “I,” but it’s acceptable in standard English to leave the “am” out.</p>
<p>Sorry if this was confusing. I’m not sure I explained it clearly…</p>
<p>Basically, you are comparing two subjects:</p>
<p>No one is sorrier than I [am sorry].</p>
<p>Both “no one” and “I” are subjects</p>
