<p>1) I remember looking at the test and thinking for sure “cajole” because “bully” was far too extreme. Thing is, I can’t even remember if that was a SC or a CR passage. Can someone refresh my memory of the nature of the question?</p>

<p>2) Is it POSSIBLE, or even PLAUSABLE that a minus 1 on math could possibly receive an 800? This firetruck section, non-experimental, seems to have thrown a great many students away. Could this help the curve for upper scoring students? </p>

<p>3) Assuming 10 on essay, what is most you could miss on Writing to still get 800? 750+ ?</p>

<p>4) Is 2300+ gonna cut it for Harvard? =/</p>

1050

<p>I don’t exactly remember the letter but let’s assume that it was Z.</p>

<p>Maybe my brain was not working properly when I looked at that problem. AHHH</p>

1057

<p>Funkmasta, I got 6 paths and 70/3 for the respective problems .</p>

1058

<p>no it was four squares 2 over 2 more and the two points were at opposite ends</p>

1059

<p>Are you sure the First Firetruck was 3.5??? because I thought for sure it was 4.5. and are you Absolutely sure the second one was 6. I put down 5. </p>
