Wednesday 2012 PSAT General Discussion

<p>im pretty sure the water depth one was a multiple choice one…</p>

<p>@ColinVW</p>

<p>Decimals are always acceptable. You were correct.</p>

<p>@FireLion</p>

<p>Look a few pages back for the 130 one. I posted a link to the diagram the way that I remember it being.</p>

<p>well can anyone refresh me on these three problems…
water depth
can someone refresh me on the bar graph one w/ answer 5 and the parallel lines one with answer 130? thanks</p>

<p>which page should i look back to? please send me diagram again? thanks</p>

<p>nm i found the diagram, thanks! :slight_smile: but now any1 refresh me on the bar question? merciiiiii danke thanks</p>

<p>Someone sound have a countdown till we get our scores. LOL anyone know an official date?</p>

<p>Expect it the first week of December.</p>

<p>sigh i can’t wait till december, why does the PSAT take longer to grade than the SAT??</p>

<p>Well, with the SAT, there are tons of options for when you can take it, so there are less kids taking it each time. However, with the PSAT, the majority of sophomores and juniors in the country take the test all in two days, which is a way greater amount in such a short time.</p>

<p>well can anyone refresh me on these problems…
water depth with answer 5/6
can someone refresh me on the bar graph one w/ answer 6</p>

<p>Reading seemed the hardest of all 3 sections, -5 should be 72, -6 should be 70.</p>

<p>What letter was the answer choice “the independence of American energy was important regardless of whether it helps the environment” for the critical reading passing about hydrogen cells and energy?</p>

<p>Was it letter choice ‘D’?</p>

<p>Please help! Thanks</p>

<p>I think I missed either one or two of the CR questions. Since people seem to think it was harder than last year, could -1 be 80? What would -2 be…78 or something like that?</p>

<p>@stylishsmartie it probably was ridiculously simple. Doesn’t change the fact that during the test I blanked and couldn’t think of an answer haha</p>

<p>i have a question abt the wording of the water depth problem. was it determine the water depth at the end of 200_ to 200_ or at the beginning of 200_ to 200_. and NO ONE HAS answered my graph question.</p>

<p>Can someone please estimate my score?</p>

<p>W: -1
CR: -8
M: -1</p>

<p>Although only 10 days past from the PSAT Wednesday test… I want my scores back already!</p>

<p>@FireLion I don’t think the water depth changed from the end of one year to the beginning of the next so it shouldn’t matter…
and many people have posted the bar graph question.
“the bar graph question was really simple haha, it just showed a bar graph with the number of children who received 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 on a quiz or something, and it asked for the number of children who received >7 or something like that, you just had to add them up and the answer was 6, which was the largest of the answers.”</p>
