<p>ughhhhhh i hate cr</p>
<p>I thought it was cautious since the following sentence suggested that Americans were conservative.</p>
<p>I choose malcontent.</p>
<p>i crossed off unorthodox and cautious…i think i crossed off illogical but now that you say it that one seems right. what was the 5th answer choice?</p>
<p>I put cautious because the part after said something about Americans being conservative, too.</p>
<p>shoot, i chose illogical too by just process of elimination, wasnt really sure…dont remember the fifth choice</p>
<p>I chose cautious as well. “illogical” is a bit extreme. and the correct answer is never extreme.</p>
<p>I was up in the air between cautious and illogical (I actually thought every single answer was incorrect), but I ended up going with cautious because of the “conservative Americans” in the following sentence.</p>
<p>The correct answer is always the most directed. Illogical was the most direct. conservative =! cautious</p>
<p>oh man…i think i did worse on this CR than i did on the blue book one with the man walking back through his old town!!! (and that was one was just a disasterrrr)</p>

<p>i put cautious but illogical is actually quite logical :P</p>
<p>:p I still stand by illogical. The passage was discussing the American Revolution and how ironic it was for Americans to have an anathema towards it.</p>
<p>i see how cautious and illogical work
love that i don’t see how my own answer would work</p>
<p>I chose cautious as well, for the reasons noted above.</p>
<p>This was kind of a strange test for me, as CR is typically my strongest section [I got 80s on the past two PSATs] but I was unsure on at least 4 or 5 questions on this one.</p>
<p>I hope the curves are nice!</p>
<p>I chose cautious because it indicated that they were not ready for a revolution, and that they believed in the more conservative option of steady progress.</p>
<p>Yet - SO DO I</p>
<p>But what was the point of talking about the American Revolution? :(</p>
<p>I don’t think that was included within the indicated quotes. In any case, I don’t believe the author necessarily had such a harsh view of Americans.</p>
<p>By the way, cupnoodles, your name looks familiar. Are you familiar with a “Qmwne235”?</p>
