<p>I see. So that means I can compare my scores with other people right in class. Excellent.</p>
<p>whyy did my answer post before unoriginal’s question? haha the time is so messed upp</p>
<p>Yeah every post has the timing messed up; too many people are posting at the same time!</p>
<p>Just to verify the answers to the questions at the beginning of the business passage, we have</p>
<p>-“a situation of trust”
-“his sense of discretion”
-“concrete evidence” (for the one about the info form his obituary)
-“few hard facts were known about the guy” (for a question about why he is elusive to researchers)
-“people’s perspective of the guy” (for the question about why it lists all those quotes about the guy at the beginning
-“look after”</p>
<p>hmm is there any way to put a rush on PSAT scores like you can SAT scores? a summer program i’m applying to asks for my psat score, but the due date for the app is at the end of november.</p>
<p>^^yes. that’s is correct.</p>
<p>random747 - i got situation of trust, sense of discretion, concrete evidence … look after we just talked about </p>
<p>what were the 2 questions for few hard facts know and people’s perspective?</p>
<p>-“people’s perspective of the guy” (for the question about why it lists all those quotes about the guy at the beginning</p>
<p>-“concrete evidence” (for the one about the info form his obituary)</p>
<p>What were the other choices for these questions?</p>
<p>I got the same as highhopes for the ridge question.</p>
<p>And spiralcloud, yes, I did have “to be” as one of my answers.</p>
<p>random I got all of those same answers. </p>
<p>On that one about the scientist, the lady talked about how you should invalidate other theories so that common people know which one to believe. She never talked about experiments being a basis for further research so I chose the laypersons (common people) answer.</p>
<p>I think I picked that when you invalidate other theories, you help other students minimize mistakes.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Your wrong. It said previous data could be used to carry on more experiments.</p>
<p>ok so if I missed 0-1 on the writing and 2-3 on the math, about how many could I miss on the reading and still be above or at a 209?</p>
<p>I’m looking at around 11 wrong for CR, probably around 11 for math, and 4-7 for writing. Oh God…</p>
<p>meadow the entire passage was about the value of invalidating others’ theories, and the woman said that the primary value was so that people could know which one to understand. She then went on to say that there are secondary effects such as yours.</p>
<p>I put “look after” and “experiments for further research” :)</p>
<p>But didn’t the question say how invalidating theories will help her students? In which case, wouldn’t the answer be that she is helping them minimize mistakes?</p>
<p>When we get the PSAT’s back, what do we get? do we know exactly what we got wrong?</p>
<p>I don’t remember that answer. I just remember I jumped at the one about laypersons because she stressed that common people need to understand which theory to believe because a theory will get nowhere without their support.</p>
<p>No, I think she told them something along the lines of, do your experiment, and if you get different results than an existing experiment, explain why the other people are wrong so the scientific community knows to take your experiment along for further research rather than the other one.</p>
<p>I don’t think it’s “minimize mistakes” because it was more like you do the experiment first, then compare it with existing ones to look for errors in either.</p>
<p>I also distinctly remember eliminating the layperson answer because the passage didn’t mention explaining things to common people, I got the sense it all took place in the scientific community.</p>
