<p>@LoudestTrumpet - the answer is ‘lacking.’ This question was a straight vocab - you shouldn’t analyze the passage like you do on other questions to get this one. In the context of the sentence, ‘lacking’ fits the best because the sentence read ‘some people argue that an explanation for the war is wanting.’ Clearly, ‘lacking’ is the best substitute for ‘wanting.’ That’s the way you should approach those - plug in the answer choices for the word in question and pick the one that makes most sense.</p>
<p>i think i chose whose for that one. does any one know how many questions collegeboard omits?</p>
<p>just wanted to point out that if you got the same answer as another, it does not “confirm it”</p>
<p>For the red panda question, I believe it was it’s ability [in contorting] >>> to contort.</p>
<p>@thelemonisinplay Oh okay, thanks. I understand now.</p>
<p>@LoudestTrumpet i put whose but after i finished taking it i thought so too… its an idiomatic error right?</p>
<p>What about the writing #25 which involved some guy from Pakistan. It went like shah mid sharzai, graduating from Lahore institute of arts, utilized his artistic abilities to reconnect(something like that)?</p>
<p>@shocho Yeah I believe it’s idiomatic. I don’t think there was anything wrong with “whose”.</p>
<p>@jacks4jokers no error</p>
<p>does anyone remember the one with parallel structure and the adequately preserved? or whatever it was. does that adverb in front of the verb disturb parallel structure or is it fine how it is?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure “adequately preserved” is wrong because all the phrases before it had the verb first. So it should have been “preserved adequately” to keep the parallel structure :)</p>
<p>@glasses1, pretty sure it doesn’t because it’s an adverb</p>
<p>edit: @kaleidoscoper i hope you’re wrong. plsplspls. LOLOL</p>
<p>for the sentence improvements, does anyone remember the answer to the otter question? it was either as or as + something that i don’t remember.</p>
<p>also does anyone remember catching “protected by” as an error?</p>
<p>@theniketan haha, but collegeboard is pretty stingy on parallelism. i saw a few tricky parallelism problems on today’s test, too!</p>
<p>@glasses1 I agree with you, I thought that it didn’t really break up the parallel structure; I pulled the trigger on no error in the end because only ‘adequately’ was underlined, rather than the entire phrase.</p>
<p>haha . nooo i dont even remember what i put b/c i was so frustrated with that problem i just randomly guessed one of those two and forgot about it… didnt have time to go back and look. looks like well see though. @theniketan for the otter one it was as regal as a cheetah (or whatever the animal was) and no idea about protected by as an error. more context?</p>
<p>NOOO i’m pretty sure it broke up parallel structure
i’ve practiced quite a few writing sections and cb is super stingy about parallelism
ughhghhhhhhhhhh
last time i missed 3 writing questions with a 10 essay and i ended up with a 740 T.T</p>
<p>I wish I could travel back in time…just like Gatsby.</p>
<p>Which got four math sections??? One grid in two 25 MC normal and one 20 min??</p>
<p>is there any chance that the trapezoid problem was an experimental math…trying to give myself a little hope</p>
<p>@ladyinblue i did! finally somebody else who got it too</p>
