I don’t know if I should cancel the scores or not. I really feel that I did exceedingly well. I wrote an awesome essay (10-12 range), had 4 body paragraphs with an intro + conclusion, so I really developed my 1 example well. I felt math and sentence completions were REALLY EASY; I don’t know why everybody was calling the sentence completions as hard. Now I’ve gotten kind of concerned because I could have messed up some of the sentence completions, but I always get at most 1 wrong on those, so idk.
There were 2 weird reading questions: one asked about the different usages of “patriot…patriotism” in the double passage; the answer choices were: (literal, metaphorical, cynical, respectable, sarcastic). I left that one blank. Also, there was one about the photograph where it asked why the author would use “something…stigmatism…something”; that word means focus on something. I narrowed it down to B and D; B said “insisting that…” and D says “emphasizing that the woman in the photograph felt bad about her current condition,” so I chose D as the more mellow answer. What do u think? Should I cancel? I’m aiming for near the 2300 range, and I know i left 1 blank CR, 1x Writing, but I’m pretty confident on everything else.
