SAT test 26.01.13

<p>Regarding the following seahorse question:</p>

<p>I felt a twinge of expectation. Perhaps this time I would find one?</p>

<p>Did the author show…
eagerness?
determination?
ambivalence?</p>

<p>I know many people put eagerness, but doesn’t it show ambivalence?</p>

<p>so one of our normal 25 min ones are experimental?? Cause everyone else’s is either 20 min or grid in! I’m happy cause I think I made an error in one of the two so I have a 50% shot of letting it slide</p>

<p>^yes it means one of the 25 minute ones was experimental. Im just the opposite haha. I think I made a mistake in the one that everybody had -___-</p>

<p>thesats1234567 I hate to break it to you, but I had an experimental writing and still got the trapezoid question. I am actually a good math student, not to bloat here, but that question did take me a while. Chances are we might get a relatively lenient curve for math. :)</p>

<p>the trapezoid problem was 79, right?</p>

<p>i think i got 2 math problems wrong so far. and none of them are in my experimental section. just my luck of course. and most people got 79 for the trapezoid problem.</p>

<p>@National </p>

<p>definition of ambivalence: uncertainty or fluctuation, especially when caused by inability to make a choice or by a simultaneous desire to say or do two opposite or conflicting things.</p>

<p>“I felt a twinge of expectation. Perhaps this time I would find one?” I don’t think the expresses any uncertainty caused by inability to make a choice or a simultaneous desire to say or do two opposite or conflicting things. While it might express a degree of uncertainty, its still questionable and i think most would agree eagerness is still a much safer bet.</p>

<p>I’m hoping the section with 100 2 2 2 question answer 1 was experimental</p>

<p>^i think that section was…it had some pretty weird questions. it was either in an experimental one or the 20 minute section. was the problem with 1<a<b<10 in the 20 minute section?</p>

<p>@ladyinblue i’m sorry, but that wasn’t experimental :frowning: i got a dna cr experimental section that no one else here seems to have gotten…</p>

<p>ive confused myself so much trying to figure out what my experimental section was ):</p>

<p>Damn goodbye 800): ^ rightttttt? Like every section seems to have been gottten by everyone (excuse my grammar)</p>

<p>For the seahorse lady, I put that she was determined because she had expectations.</p>

<p>I put the same ^</p>

<p>0 wrong CR
1 wrong M
9-10 essay + 1-0 wrong W
What are my chances of getting a 2400?
How harsh does everyone think the curve will be?</p>

<p>@saturdaygirl22 i’m pretty sure 1 wrong in math will knock you down to anywhere from a 780-750, depending on how generous the curve is</p>

<p>@kaleidoscoper I think that using the adverb before the verb doesn’t ruin the parallelism. Let’s think about it: verb, verb, adverb verb. It’s still a verb in the main part of each section. So it should be okay as is. Can someone explain this rule? Parallelism always gets me.</p>

<p>Now I am scared. I already omitted 3 CR, and one wrong for sure.
3 wrong in math tops, 2 minimum.
possibly one wrong in writing.</p>

<p>Essay score: 9-10</p>

<p>Where do I stand worst case scenario?</p>

<p>worst case?
you ommit 3, one wrong plus others that you got wrong without ever realizing ← we all ignore this possibility but it always happens to most of us…
3 wron in math, plus 2 careless mistakes… again, always happens
essay is actaully worse than you think: 7.
M: 680
CR:670
W:650
2000
not bad!</p>

<p>The only issue is that I have been scoring 2290+ on all practice tests. I think I felt confident in the wrong direction. I mean…how can I miss math!!! I have an A in Calc for Christ’s sake!</p>

<p>:-( Should I cancel?</p>
