October 18 PSAT Discussion

<p>Yeah I think “long since lost” is correct, because “long since” just functions as an adverb.</p>

<p>I got the one about vice-presidents/National Gallery of Art wrong though…I put “their” because I thought it was ambiguous, but then again, the residence part pretty much infers it was referring to the VP family.</p>

<p>The Mexican One: It seems Sophie found the original sentence. It’s no error! WOOT.</p>

<p>anyone remember the questions from the music passage. and the business man one.</p>

<p>Idk it wasn’t really about naming constellations rationally, since it said they just picked random names like Microscope and the actual thing just had two stars and you like imagine the microscope? I thought it was more like a psychological need to see certain lines/forms/whatever?</p>

<p>I remember the music one being pretty easy…for business, what’d you put for the meaning of “trade”? I don’t know why but I was awful at vocab in context today.</p>

<p>the vice president one, I’m not sure if this helps but it was “The members of the vice presidential family” so their refers to members. I didn’t think it was wrong. </p>

<p>The sentence I found wasn’t really the original, just how it’s used often.(don’t the college board make their own?) I also googled “many of whom were”, but much fewer results came up.</p>

<p>For the music passage, was her problem with the second guy’s study that it didn’t take the indirect effects of lullabies into account?</p>

<p>And for the african american businessman, I remember a question about what does it mean by trade, I put commerce. And one where my answer was like, his business needs come before his politics. OH! And one where I had to decide between “a situation of trust” or “business responsibilities” and I went with the trust.</p>

<p>me too loh3x7a I put profession cuz he’s already a man of commerce</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure it’s neurological to psychological need…</p>

<p>if you google “many of whom were mexican americans” you get results as well…hmmm</p>

<p>in the weather man passage:</p>

<p>one question was like what wud passage 1 girl’s response be to line 2-3 of passage 2</p>

<p>anybody remember this question?</p>

<p>I’m pretty confident on the Mexicans one being no error, as well as the Manuscripts-long since lost one being no error.</p>

<p>I’m also confident on the psychological need one, but not quite as much.</p>

<p>And i think JP 1000 here response was that its not entirely accurate? or something?</p>

<p>highropes I also put business before his politics.
I dont remember “a situation of trust”. Do you know the question?</p>

<p>That was actually the exact same sentence. I recognized it.</p>

<p>Passage 1 was like lullabies are good</p>

<p>Passage 2 was like lullabies dont do anything…genetically</p>

<p>one qs…was like passage 2 does not consider…that lullabies can be passed down…</p>

<p>i thought it was business responsibility because the guy was taking on so many jobs…what was the question again?</p>

<p>van_sant did you google the entire phrase? try putting it in quotes I only got
Results 1 - 3 of 3 for “many of whom were mexican americans”. (0.17 seconds) </p>

<p>3 results lol not really funny cuz I missed it T_T</p>

<p>“I dont remember “a situation of trust”. Do you know the question?”</p>

<p>It was something like, the people said that Forten (sp?) was a really good guy and they asked him to look after their families when they went overseas, this most closely shows something or other, I put c) they could rely on him in situation of trust and I remember another answer, I think D or E, was personal responsibilities at his business or soemthing</p>

<p>And for one question I got “He’s ignoring the indirect effects of lullabies.” Passing down lullabies has nothing to do with genetics, you just need to teach someone the words.</p>

<p>soophie yeah i did…and you missed it? i thought you put no error, no?
damn. PSAT curves are nasty. why must they round up if you have .5???</p>
