<p>hey guys,
What did you all say about the julia butterfly passage. was the WRONG choice (aka the answer we should have marked) “ascended up?” i felt like “ascended” and “ascended up” is kind’ve ambiguous.</p>
<p>aux, yea a) was scaled my bad I also put ascended up</p>
<p>auxsoleil, the answer to the last question was 9.72, which i think was B)</p>
<p>its’ = not a real word</p>
<p>math section, there was 3 questions in package and all the answers were E. anyone agree? (wasnt sure about the first) I dont remember the question though</p>
<p>hmmm i put “ascended” because it implies that she physically lifted the tree up, rather than just climbed it. …right?</p>
<p>wait so was the answer “ascended” or “ascended up” ???</p>
<p>peach, after reading ur comment, i am not sure about ascended up anymore =(</p>
<p>ascended up. ascended does not imply the tree itself was lifted up…i’m not sure why you would think that. if i ascended the mountain, i didn’t lift it up…i climbed it.</p>
<p>so ascended up is wrong because it’s redundant?</p>
<p>what’s 7 wrong in reading and 7 wrong in sceince?</p>
<p>I think I did as well…weren’t they related? I think it was the charts with the childcare thing. I was running out of time and put C for each, then came back last minute and realized it was easy. I know I at least had 2 E’s, and I believe a third? Not so sure though…</p>
<p>and the its’…I think it was just its</p>
<p>it has to be ascended up. </p>
<p>does anyone remember what the other answers were to why the photographer became famous?(in addition to the “correct” one of his technology?")</p>
<p>Math killed me
I guess on like 7
Science was pretty bad this time too. They better have a nice curve, no stupid crappy dropoffs, like 40/40 =36, and then 39/40=34
none of that crap i hope
But yeah
i got a 30 last time on science, and i have a feeling i did worse on it this time</p>
<p>I didn’t put “its’” … and my best section is always writing (35 last time)… I’m almost positive I’m right.</p>
<p>I put “ascended up” E… it’s just not right. The choices were: Keep it, climbed, climbed up, ascended, ascended up … it asked what would be LEAST correct… Plus, ascended never means to pick up, it means to climb. “Ascended up” is not a common phrase, while climbed up is (even though it’s also redundant)</p>
<p>Senluck: I got 2^2 * 5 also. It was prime factorization. 2 of the answer choices had #'s that weren’t prime. One just didn’t = the # in the eq.</p>
<p>for the one about the thunderheads in the reading section, did anyone else say they represented the rapidity of change?</p>
<p>ascended up is definitely wrong (so choosing it would get you a right answer)…the next couple sentences down, the passage states “when she descended”. It wasn’t “when she descended down”. So basically they consider the “up” redundant.</p>
<p>And yes, I said the thunderstorms were rapidity of change. But I ran outta time on the fiction (I worked backwards because science is my strongest reading) and basically guessed which one sounded right.</p>
<p>I’ve taken a lot of practice math tests, and I’ve never had a huge issue with time. I’ve only had to guess on 2 or 3 at most and get around a 32. Today I had to guess on about 8!
What’s weird is I always have issues with time on reading and science. Today I got through most of it. I don’t think I did so well on them though.</p>
<p>"it has to be ascended up. "
Yeah that was correct (as the wrong answer. the other 3 were better)
You can climb a mountain(mountain is assumed to be sloped, so climbing a mountain infers up)
You can climb up a mountain(climb up is still appropriate)</p>
<p>You can ascend a mountain (go up it)
But you cannot ascend up something
It is complete, useless redundancy.</p>
<p>liveinlove, yes i put that as well.
i put ascended up.
ahh can anybody tell me about the 7 wrong on reading and science thing yet, NOT looking at the curve bigtwix mentioned?</p>
<p>also, should the addition of “age of twentythree” be made?</p>
