<p>topasz … you sure it isn’t the didactic one???</p>

<p>100th post!!! WHEEEEE</p>

<p>yes, i’m pretty sure… do you remember what the second word was for the didactic choice?</p>

<p>AAAAAAAAAAAH. Was CR really that easy for everyone? <em>dies</em> I hated the SC.</p>

<p>no…i feel the same way aqua. let’s hope for a generous curve</p>

<p>i dont remember seeing didactic anywhere…i’m assuming that was exp?</p>

<p>didactic was on the new scientist vocab one. The right answer was presumptuous/venturing</p>

<p>topasz, did you think the SC was easier than previous administrations? I don’t think it’ll have a harsh curve. or atleast I HOPE NOT!</p>

<p>no no no it’s one of the choices for that :</p>

<p>the new comer didnt want to seem _____ so he didnt____ criticisms about the President’s plan</p>

hmmmm i thought it was a little easier, but maybe it just fit my “style” better. sometimes i come upon a passage written in such archaic and ornate language that i really struggle through the questions but this time i felt that all the passages were written for a modern audience. but maybe cuz the vocab was hard, things will balance out? i really dunno. i don’t have that much knowledge about how CB decides curves and what is average/not average. sorry :)</p>

<p>lol I wish CC had an automatic refresher thing… like gmail does…</p>

<p>I post a reply… and once it’s posted up… someone’s already posted the same thing before I did.</p>

<p>chopin, that was the Q that i thought we decided was presumptuous/venture … i can see how didactic might work for 1st blank and that’s why i asked u for the word that came w/ didactic, i remember it being distinctly “off”</p>

<p>uhh topasz… i think it’s “put off” ???</p>

<p>i dont remember the second one really… all i remembered was i didn’t understand the second one… just chose based on the first one</p>

<p>i think the 2nd word meant something like “constrained” so it’s a double negative…and didn’t fit…</p>

<p>wait the observations one i think i checked it off
it was something else i forgot like notice</p>

<p>yeah i thought we agreed the answer was notice</p>

<p>im still fuming about the vocab I probably lost nearly all my points there and I always aced vocab</p>

<p>Yes no kidding. Me too. I usually miss one SC MAX! Now I’ve lost all my points from vocab too.</p>

<p>im still fuming about the vocab I probably lost nearly all my points there and I always aced vocab</p>

<p>:( you’re not alone, vocab was harder than normal this time around. i didn’t know what venality meant (the power of elimination!) and i just saw celerity like a week ago :P</p>

<p>i thought venality meant corruption or open to bribery?</p>

<p>Guys if you know you are taking an experimental like having two CR or Maths in a row, can you purposely blow it off because I lost all my energy on the crazy archeology passage? I mean this is my first time and I know I could have scored at least 150 points higher. But colleges like to see a student with iniative and 2 times is fine. 3 is stretching it.</p>

<p>Venality wasnt an answer it was celerity</p>
