Canadian / Intl SAT I discussion

<p>hey ppl the other june 06 thread has grown to 1000+ posts… we internationals just dont seem to discuss much!!!</p>

<p>yea well… since much more took the test than internationally…</p>

<p>anyway… precarious… i don’t quite remember</p>

<p>can anyone remind me?</p>

<p>it was about some guy who was positioned one foot above the ground…</p>

<p>That question was supine for sure. Look it up!! If the person is working only one feet from the ground on a very low ceiling, he must be lying flat. Precarious would only apply if he’s in a dangerous situation, like dangling from the roof by a rope…I picked precarious at first but realized quickly that he must have been laying flat, making supine the right answer.</p>

<p>i think i picked supine to, but i dont remember…it was ok, i probably didnt do too well on the CR, and the Writing but i’ll see. Only 20 days till results!</p>

<p>humph= = can you recall which math is hard to do ? - - </p>

<p>yah supine is right i guess - - </p>

<p>the writing is tricky, i found 4 Es i guess - - i don’t remember where, more postings ok ?</p>

<p>i find the cowboyz is hard for the second passage, does it really hard ? - - writing . . for a good reason, CB always puts 3-4 Es in every writing section. the math for the third section ( i miss 2-3 things i guess) but overall it is fine- grid in is ok, and the last math is easy. the writing section ==> the reading and the first number of it, is really hard- - just leave it blank</p>

<p>hmm i dont really remember number of E’s…
i guess u guys r right about supine…:(</p>

<p>I found the writing section really easy… esp the spot-the-mistake ones.</p>

<p>Was the question in teh writing section “Conformity of standards” wrong? Isn’t the idiom “Conformity to” or “Conformity with”?</p>

<p>A quick search on Google shows “conformity of” yields about 200 results while “conformity to” yield about 20,000 results. Thus I think that is an idiom error.</p>

<p>How many no errors did you guys get? I got 4…(and I think that’s a bit much but I can’t find the errors!)</p>

<p>4 definitely - - no Cb always has 3-4 Es</p>

<p>yeah…around 3-4 Es…writing is ok…a bit unsure of CR…</p>

<p>After the Test</p>

<p>If you took the black-and-white cover version of the SAT Reasoning Test on Saturday, June 3, 2006, you had one of three section orders. Your test was organized like this:</p>

<ol>
<li>Essay</li>
<li>Reading (includes 2 long passages)</li>
<li>Math</li>
<li>Math (includes SPR questions)</li>
<li>Reading</li>
<li>Equating (the one that doesn’t count toward your score)</li>
<li>Writing</li>
<li>Math</li>
<li>Reading

<ol>
<li>Writing</li>
</ol></li>
</ol>

<p>OR, like this:</p>

<ol>
<li>Essay</li>
<li>Writing</li>
<li>Reading</li>
<li>Math</li>
<li>Equating (the one that doesn’t count toward your score)</li>
<li>Reading (includes 2 long passages)</li>
<li>Math (includes SPR questions)</li>
<li>Reading</li>
<li>Math

<ol>
<li>Writing</li>
</ol></li>
</ol>

<p>I took the 3rd one, maths section 5 experimental which ****es me off :(</p>

<p>When I was taking th test, I thought section 4 was gonna be experimental so I didn’t really put in much effort (which was very stupid).</p>

<p>Yeah I had the 3rd one too. But I remember figuring out which section was experimental because one of the sections had 1 or 2 fewer questions than a normal section.</p>

<p>is that so ? = = i guess oasis not really right - - don’t ever think which section is experimental by figuring out the number of the questions k ? - -</p>

<p>do you remember the experimental questions ?</p>

<p>was the question with the supine in the experimental section?</p>

<p>I don’t know, I’m just saying that I remember seeing a math section with a strange number of questions and thinking to myself, “This must be the experimental.” But it’s irrelevant since I tried my hardest on each section.</p>

<p>^ For mine the experimental was a math section so it depends on which version you took. Did you have 4 critical reading sections?</p>
