October 2011 SAT General Discussion

[SATkilla]

<p>did anybody else have a section with the last problem being radical(a/x) something as the last question?</p>

<p>

kay, so this is the question on Thoreau’s Walden. It has to be scientific. it said in the passage “later focused on his more scientific works.” Walden is even seen as scientific (not long and boring or human centered).</p>

<p>“What Coleridge crucially provided Thoreau with was the encouragement, even perhaps in terms of authorial authority, the right, to merge a scientific approach to nature with his kaleidoscopic imaginative sweep over the living ecology of Walden.”</p>

<p>just look up on google thoreau’s walden scientific & youll see a ton of results.

</p>

<p>Cool. But the answers to SAT questions are from the passage. Not from other pieces of literature that other people work. The last few lines of the passage clearly depicted Walden as a human centered work because that is the author’s position. Even if Walden is scientific centered and many other people think so, the author considers it human centered and that is the answer. In the critical reading section, other peoples’ opinions don’t matter. The only one that matters is that of the author.</p>

[Interficio]

<p>Guys let’s get back on topic.</p>

[SATkilla]

<p>haha this dudes mad. </p>

<p>but back on topic then anyone have the math section with rad(a/x) as the last question?</p>

[Mascara]

<p>^ I didn’t, as far as I can remember.</p>

[SATkilla]

<p>thats legit. i think i only missed 1 question (the overlapping circles cuz of dumb mistake) on the math then. that section with the rad question i omitted 2 so i may be lucky.</p>

[SATkilla]

<p>What do you all think the curve will give for a -1 or a -2 on the math?</p>

[political_pop]

<p>so are there any more critical reading questions that we can remember? we’re missing like 10…</p>

[Mascara]

<p>I think -1 on math will be 780 and -2 760. I dunno, math seemed… really average for me.</p>

[SATkilla]

<p>Yea it didnt seem that hard to me either besides the experimental M. the problems were really time consuming it felt like. Hoping for like -1 790 and -2 760… probably will be what you guessed though.</p>

[Mascara]

<p>When I practiced with BB, I’d sometimes omit 2 questions Or I’d have NO idea how to solve them. The questions I missed were simple (sweater & circles). It’s definitely on the easier side. Oh well; all I’m hoping for is 750+ per section; I’d be fine with a 2250. Hahaha. (:</p>
