<p>Hey I got all the answers in JP’s post (and I put “general distrust”), but what’d you guys put for that question about “continuous contours” or something like that? I remember I was debating between something about “illusory” (I think C) and another one about “inherent appeal” (E)…</p>
<p>Anyway shortly after the test I realize I bombed the math section…and my state’s got pretty much the highest cut-off. Ugh whatever, just gonna forget about it, but had to ask that one question.</p>
<p>i think i got inherent appeal?</p>
<p>I put inherent appeal.</p>
<p>I put the inherent appeal to the eyes one.</p>
<p>hmm rethinking it distrust sounds pretty good.
just that it’s not like she didn’t trust his information, she just disliked the style he presented in, because she’s old fashioned. So I thought the sophistication was about her, that she’s traditional</p>
<p>Oh, I can’t believe there’s an actual thread and an intense discussion about this.</p>
<p>I thought the test was extremely boring and long; I didn’t know the test format, subjects, anything about it at all and I think I fell asleep during a couple sections, and just quickly did the rest. </p>
<p>Skimming at some of the responses, I don’t think I did very well, finished each section too quickly to sleep. I only had 7 hrs of sleep so I couldn’t function properly. Saturday mornings is like an auto- 1pm wake up, so…I’m a sophomore and was forced to take it so meh, I don’t really care what I get.</p>
<p>Now I know the test format; I’ll do better next year. Good luck to everyone else who actually care about this, it was rather surprising; do you get something if you score high or something?</p>
<p>inherent appeal</p>
<p>Invoyable- the PSAT determines national merit, that’s why people are concerned.</p>
<p>one question was like what wud passage 1 girl’s response be to line 2-3 of passage 2</p>
<p>was it…not entirely true
…cliche
…was “insincere” a choice for this qs</p>
<p>wow I felt exactly like invoyable. our a/c was out and it was really stuffy and I was falling asleep all throughout (totally bombed the math what year did he start serving) one, but sadly it’s my junior year.
I’m not sure if I qualify for national merit anyway so I started not caring.
last year’s was really pretty good though. I didn’t miss one on the math. idk what’s wrong with me this year</p>
<p>Ok good I put inherent appeal too…and I put that psychological need one although I’m not sure about it.</p>
<p>What about the writing with something about manuscripts?</p>
<p>Btw did anyone else just <em>hate</em> the test? Of all the practice tests I’ve taken, the actual was by far the worst thing. Maybe the curve will be nice.</p>
<p>“National Merit?” Eh, I’ll do you no further disservice and just google it. </p>
<p>I thought this was just for fun, so I just randomly bubbled in and slept in some sections…is it really important though? if it is, then it’d probably be in my interest to actually try next year.</p>
<p>there was some wierd long since lost question…answer was either that was wrong (long since lost), or E.</p>
<p>I couldn’t decided on that illusory / inherent appeal one, so I bubbled in inherent appeal just as time was up. Does anyone have a reason why it’s not illusory?</p>
<p>If I remember correctly, the question asked about “technical chhicanery”, and that basically is deception using technology. I thought she was old school and did not trust the new technology, not the weatherman himself.</p>
<p>Also, I put intuitive vs. rational analysis because it was from how the brain immediately perceives things, to how we name constellations rationally.</p>
<p>yeah critical reading was harder than the october SAT</p>
<p>I put the psychological need one also.</p>
<p>The manuscripts I’m thinking was no error, “long since lost” sounds kinda awkward but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it</p>
<p>And if I’m not mistaken, illusory means like seeing things that aren’t there… I put inherent appeal because it was more like there are certain things you want to see more than others, but I was a little torn</p>
<p>I put no error for the long since lost one.</p>
<p>i put e I didn’t think long since lost was wrong, just sounds like it is.</p>
<p>1a1- thats what i put! hope thats right. i also hope the other one is right too, even though i would be wrong…but to be polite</p>
