<p>@Dino It was the question with the triangle inscribed within the circle, tangent to a line</p>
<p>Was that on the experimental? Because i do not remember that question at all =(</p>
<p>Guys I think we may be mixing up the question. From what I remember (and I could very well be wrong) the question asked what does passage 1 say that passage 2 doesn’t in terms of being helpful. Passage 1 said asking your peers to help you was a good way to work on creative writing. Passage 2 never referred to peer editing. However, Passage 1 discussed how life experiences are helpful and Passage 2 said creative writing classes help you outside the class room or what I considered “life experiences”. So I went with peer editing being talked about in Passage 1 but not 2.</p>
<p>i need to know if the y=65 question was experimental lol its bugging me now =/</p>
<p>@Dino It was not experimental</p>
<p>^^^ That was a different question, but the answer to that one was “life experiences.” The second passage didn’t touch on (or emphasize, as the question asked) life experiences; it just talked about reading and becoming a writer on your own. The one we we’re discussing asked what both passages agreed on.</p>
<p>@StudiousMaximus okay thanks. I’ve been thinking of so many problems I probably just mixed that one up.</p>
<p>phlegmatic was the answer to which question??</p>
<p>“Doberman is a _____ breed of dog, one that seldom reacts to outside stimuli”</p>
<p>Not exact by any means but that was the general form of the sentence</p>
<p>Hey guys on the Rivoli air conditioning one what did you put? I looked at “went to watch movies just as much as to escape the heat” and “which did not previously have air conditioning” and chose the latter because I think it asked which was most relevant to the entire passage…</p>
<p>Don’t know the exact phrasing but was the question country-and-western musicians? Did it have a dash</p>
<p>I’m going to bring up what I’ve said over and over.</p>
<p>While you guys are arguing “useful but no essential” or “peer-editing”, I say it’s “the most talented writers probably wouldn’t attend”.</p>
<p>it wasn’t peer editing. i’m pretty sure the answer choice was valuable input from peers which is a lot different. peer editing is too specific and would make useful but not essential the most probable answer. valuable input from peers was discussed by both passages which is why it’s the right answer. I can see why you’d go with the most talented writers option but imo you’d have to make too many assumptions to get to that answer</p>
<p>@GoodJobBro: The way you phrased it sounds plausible, but I remember that choice; it said something like, “Students who take writing classes tend not to become the most talented writers,” or something that made it seem like writing classes somehow barred someone from becoming a good writer. This notion was not implied by either passage.</p>
<p>^ That SUCKS</p>
<p>Lol, I was so confident in that answer because I thought that’s what it said. Guess that’s 1 more wrong…</p>
<p>I agree that it was valuable input from peers. It wasn’t peer editing I couldn’t remember what the choice was…it WAS that answer choice. I definitely feel its correct with that wording. The other wasn’t supported in both passages.</p>
<p>How can you (all those advocating the “peer” choice) make the assertion that both passages said writing classes were useful primarily because of peer feedback and then say they didn’t agree that writing classes are just in some way useful (but not essential)? That makes zero sense. If the first passage was so harsh toward writing classes, then that writing classes were useful for peer feedback would be wrong as well! Saying that both passages agreed on writing classes’ usefulness because of peer help is acknowledging that the both authors thought the classes were useful on some level by default. I chose “useful but not essential” because the “peer” choice used the word “primarily” (or something like it), and <em>neither</em> passage said that peer collaboration was the <em>most</em> important aspect of these classes.</p>
<p>@divy1234 I read your previous posts and I agree with you 100%. I actually considered useful but not essential but I realized that it was meant to trick people into making assumptions about what the passages suggested. Both passages talked about how peer input was one of the most important things for a writer so both authors would most likely agree that the main advantage of classes would be to gain valuable input from peers. I actually underlined the evidence in both passages so I’m 100% sure we’re correct.</p>
<p>@studious I’m not saying that they found classes useful, but if they were agree to upon one aspect of the class that made it valuable, it would be the fact that it allows for peer input. But we can agree to disagree. And I honestly don’t care whether or not I got it right as long as I get an 800 haha</p>
