**OFFICIAL October SAT Writing Thread**

<p>Ahh Help on # 28.</p>

<p>Games are a phenomenon or Games is a phenomenon</p>

<p>I put “is” because a phenomenon is singular.
What did you all put?</p>

<p>yea, me to, I think</p>

<p>What is question 28?
I don’t recall that one</p>

<p>and should be games are…</p>

<p>ANYONE WITH THE OBSCURITY ONE? WHAT IS THE ANSWER
I THOUGHT ANSWER IS MODERN COMFORTS AGAINST BACKGROUND</p>

<p>solars, i put the modern comforts one as well.</p>

<p>On the obscurity question ,it was the austerity of the castle against the background of modern comforts. That’s definitely the right answer.</p>

<p>Thank you…I was about to have another heart attack.</p>

<p>We’re talking about two different questions. I see.</p>

<p>the overharvesting of adults, …, and destruction of habitats…</p>

<p>OR</p>

<p>adults overharvested, …, and habitats destroyed… ?</p>

<p>^ overharvested adults, parallelism</p>

<p>Games is or games are! Please respond!</p>

<p>both choices had parallelism.</p>

<p>Second question on the castles paragraph: was it B or E? I can’t remember the question, but both answers sounded fine.</p>

<p>What is the second question?
There is no obscurity for that para answer</p>

<p>games are…</p>

<p>my reasoning for 65 and/or older was that they say NUMBER of people before that - if you have people age 65 OR people older than 65 you have 2 numbers.</p>

<p>Yes, it was the past-tense. It sounded better.</p>

<p>I never got anything about 65 or over… was that experimental?</p>

<p>On the games question, I put are. It’s awkward - “games are a phenomenon” - but the “phenomenon” part was not a choice. That would have been the error there. As it stands, there was no error for the underlined parts.</p>

<p>I think it was…none of my questions were about 65 or games</p>

<p>i didn’t get the games question.</p>

<p>but for the 65 or older, i put no error. but i was stressing over that question!</p>
