I took my 4th SAT today and that had to be the WORST reading segment EVER!

Oh, God No.

I LOVED that passage, because I've studied sublime themes before. =P

I HATED that one...I was hoping it would be the test section but I guess not. It was too interperative in my opinion.

Yea that passage, if understood wasn't that bad. Basically- intimidating things are sublime (like bulls) and things that may be beautiful may not invoke fear and are not sublime.
