***JANUARY 2014 INTERNATIONAL SAT***

<p>@satassistance what were the other answers like? I couldn’t remember. </p>

<p>I think it is solemn and irony.</p>

<p>Solemn because … all the other answers don’t click. And she was pretty silent and composed and serious during the whole conversation, most clearly when talking about her father.</p>

<p>I wrote solemn too. Also, the use of quotations around famous was used for the purpose of irony.</p>

<p>@satassistance Sorry man, I guess I made a careless mistake with regards to that radius math question. Looks like I won’t be getting my 800 in Math after all :(</p>

<p>@resiliencemind yeah i agree it was irony for the “famous” question but not so sure abt solemn man, I felt she was being mocking =/</p>

<p>i wrote solemn tooo</p>

<p>haha when I read the question (before reading the passage) I thought it was “sarcastic” or something similar, thinking CB would like to trap us with it. But after reading it I felt she was sincere with her words. After all they share a mutual acquaintance (I wrote they were cousins, oops!) and talked about beloved people who are gone.</p>

<p>I felt it was solemn because she was sort of cautioning her friend against being held captive by books like her father had been, which is why I felt she was being grave and solemn when she said “How sad.”</p>

<p>yo guys what was the first question, i mean the question with “truth” as the answer =S</p>

<p>Yeah “famous” served the purpose of conveying a sense of irony. Many people choose “controversial” but the actual answer choice was “the controversial NATURE of the word” and there’s nothing controversial about the meaning of the word famous.</p>

<p>Please will someone tell me what the question was for the very first sentence completion question that has the answer “trust” and also the no 7 which is being debated with cultivated and solicitous as the answers ? question for misplace…unsavory as the answer ? O.o @benjamin8451 @resiliencemind @pavingparadise</p>

<ul>
<li>trust: some swindlers gained the trust of other people</li>
<li>solicitous: some woman only pretends to care about other people for her own welfare</li>
<li>misplace + unsavory: can’t remember, but I chose that one.</li>
</ul>

<p>And it seems like “untold” is “numerous” :frowning: I just checked the dictionary :(</p>

<p>ah, The mayor’s initial confidence in some man was <em>misplaced</em> when that man’s unsavory scandal got exposed.</p>

<p>was there any thing else that came close for the “confidence artist” swindlers question ?
and do u remember the options for the woman pretending to care about other people question ?
dude are u talking about untold in regards to the elephant question ?</p>

<p>there was an option that had premature and another word for the mayor sentence, could someone please tell me what the second word was ?</p>

<p>yes untold handlers. I knew there was no information supporting “uninformed” but I could not link “untold” with “numerous” - got trapped by a tricky vocab again. </p>

<p>I am sorry that I don’t remember the options for those questions.</p>

<p>also the one with perennial and unique as answers ? =S </p>

<p>I remember archetypical, unique, perennial. </p>

<p>for the vocab question between “parallel… disparity” and “antithetical…” which one is the answer?</p>

<p>Guys do you think -1 in math will still be an 800? Did you find this test easier than tests in which -1 would still give you 800?</p>

<p>In the Alu and Ms. Verma passage, for the question “why does Alu hug the book?” (something similar to that) is the answer bewildered or overjoyed?</p>
