PSAT '09 Form S Official Thread

<p>

Sorry to say this, but it’s highly unlikely that the SAT would have complicated the finding of the circle’s diameter by not making the area a perfect square times pi. And it would be very trivial, even by Collegeboard’s standards, to ask you to find the number of integers between 999/1000 that have a 0 digit (there aren’t any integers in that set, period).</p>

<p>

Good, good.
-1 CR
-1 M
0/-1 W (still in disagreement about the workers on strike)
Oh man, wouldn’t it be ironic if my CR score turned up higher than my M score…</p>

<p>How good/bad do you guys think the curve is going to be on the math section? Better/worse than last year?</p>

<p>Anybody have a recap of what CCers “think” the solutions are?</p>

<p>Look back on the previous pages. Some people generously summed them up.</p>

<p>what was the anwer to the critical reading which referred to the lines in which the daughter said to the mother, "just make sure dad doesn’t wear one of those top hats he likes to wear?</p>

<p>What was the answer to the first question under the Wikipedia passage?</p>

<p>

Embarrassment I think.

What was the question?</p>

<p>Something along the lines of: What can be inferred by the first sentence of the passage?</p>

<p>Hm, for the ultraviolet rays / eyes question, did you guys get…(why are the rays biologically convenient?)</p>

<p>It has physical properties that make it visible to the eyes.</p>

<p>^Qimeistro - answer was that the father was only dimly aware of the proceedings of the relationship</p>

<p>what was the anwer to the critical reading which referred to the lines in which the daughter said to the mother, "just make sure dad doesn’t wear one of those top hats he likes to wear?</p>

<p>i forget but it was something embarrassment over his mode of dress?</p>

<p>"Hm, for the ultraviolet rays / eyes question, did you guys get…(why are the rays biologically convenient?)</p>

<p>It has physical properties that makes it visible to the eyes."</p>

<p>i got the same</p>

<p>^ I believe that’s what I said.</p>

<p>^ I was soooo stuck between that and “essential for survival”… but i picked survival because right after that sentence, it says that radio waves could be visible too if our eyes were super large :-/</p>

<p>@Luminouzz
I’m talking about the Wikipedia passage.</p>

<p>all the questions you guys are talking about were confirmed (well, sort of) before …so if you check the pages then you wouldn’t have to wait for someone else to come along and give the answer…</p>

<p>if I’m not mistaken, I summerized most of the math questions and dark knight summerized all the vocab questions</p>

<p>that being said, does ANY one remember independence a choice for the question about the assembly woman who was a maverick, while criticized by many for being a maverick was also _____ by other for being ______</p>

<p>@45fly
You kind of undermined your point there because that answer was previously stated.</p>

<p>nope, no one gave a definitive answer so that’s why I asked again…but you have a good point lol :/</p>

<p>CR full list from a few pages back:</p>

<ol>
<li>Prattle</li>
<li>Oracular</li>
<li>Surly … Honorable</li>
<li>Dirge</li>
<li>Elan … Technique</li>
<li>Satirical … Ridicule</li>
<li>Squander</li>
<li>Economical … Synthetic</li>
<li>Praised … Integrity</li>
<li>Edible … Lethal</li>
<li>Farming … Birthplace</li>
<li>Confidentiality</li>
</ol>

<p>45fly, she was praised for her integrity, unless I’m confusing questions and answers.</p>

<p>^</p>

<p>praised : integrity</p>

<p>We agreed on that as a fairly definitive answer.</p>

<p>@45fly wasn’t that the _______ … integrity one?</p>
