Today's SAT

<p>I had inconsistency. Wrote about Napoleon in Russia and the Bundrens. (Position: against intro thing.)</p>

<p>The one question with the I/me and my Aunt in writing confused me.
Math sucked. But almost all the hard questions were grid-ins. Are those weighted higher, because if they are I'm screwed : (. Didn't even answer two or three. One was the chair problem.</p>

<p>Didn't have pail math or translation/Shakespeare/monkeys CR. I have extended time so I apparently don't get experimentals. A lot of the hard CR things mentioned I didn't have. Rest of CR was easy though.</p>

<p>Didn't like that shift question on the Prism passage though.</p>

<p>Did anybody other than me recognize the passage about intelligence and "brain-attics" from Sherlock Holmes? I just read the book 3 weeks ago and I almost laughed out loud when I realized what the passage was. Thank you collegeboard for rewarding literacy...</p>

<p>oh! what was the answer to the CR question with what the African mother thought when she compared the lobola to the wedding rings?</p>

<p>here is a question about writing: one of the final questions was about best changing the sentence about the gas nitrogen dioxide. what did u guys put?</p>

<p>okay, this thread is way too long for me to read....haha
i think today's test was pretty good. the essay, now that i come to think of it, was weird in the first body paragraph, but too late now....writing sections were easy, but i only had like two...wait, everyone did, right??</p>

<p>^i take that back. i just saw the math answers thread and i screwed my math section without even realizing it. this forum is depressing me every second. :(</p>

<p>FOR THE PEOPLE WITH THE FOLLOWING AND ONLY "ONE" WRITING SECTION:</p>

<p>*Asian sightings, bioluminescence, poetry and translation, and dude who only lieks specialized knowledge
*one math section with root(2)-1 as the answer for 5 circles in a square and a math section with 4 integer values as the answer to a given function which you want to produce a nonnegative number</p>

<p>What was your improving paragraph on for the writing section? This will clear up for many people which writing section was the experimental for people who had to do two in a row.</p>

<p>about learing from mistakes. had two 'as it is'. kinda worried about that.</p>

<p>lazybutsmart-
i had exactly those passages and 4 math sectiosn (so i think one of the math was experimental.. hopefully the section with the calories/peanuts and the one with the houses.. which i thought was hard and totally didn't get 3 questions). it hink my writing improving paragraph thing was about learning from experiences and gaining knowledge from mistakes or whatever... it used an example about medication and drugs in the paragraph...</p>

<p>^^to all those who had the improving paragraph about learning from mistakes, did your test also have a identifying sentence errors question (near the end) about panelists answering well on a gameshow because they had rehearsed?</p>

<p>^^ uhh i don't remember that question.. but then again i was paying more attention to the errors than the actual sentence</p>

<p>^^did you have a bunch of "no errors" at the end?</p>

<p>hmm.. i think i got 2 "no errors" in a row... i thought it was kinda weird</p>

<p>What book or short story was this excerpt from? Thanks.</p>

<p>Duke, what was the title of the book or short story from which this excerpt was taken? Thanks.</p>

<p>one the paragraph improvement part of the writing, did anyone get two "(as it is now)" ??</p>

<p>Does anyone know how to do that House distance question on the math section?</p>

<p>truazn- can you write the problem?</p>

<p>"You guys...it was the relationship between ART and society, not scientists...right? And I can't remember what ai put. But for the scientists and philosphers question, i did NOT put the circumvent answer. What was the other answer?"</p>

<p>I put the relationship was exploitative because the author spends the whole time trying to explain why people attempt to exploit art instead of allowing it to be a manifestation of individualism.</p>

<p>For scientists and philosophers i'm pretty sure it was that the example shows how the public is less restrictive on certain groups than others.</p>

<p>tellallyourfriends. yea i got two (as it is now)s. one in the beginning of paragraph part and one at the end. if i remember correctly.</p>
