wow, basic.

By Jangel86 (Jangel86) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 12:23 pm: Edit

that was pretty easy...I don't think it was much harder than the regular SAT I's

compared to the others, this Official Thread sux cockamunga

By Edison427 (Edison427) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 12:30 pm: Edit

For that one question, did you guys get K = 0?

I think i did fairly well..if i skipped 4 and got 3 wrong, is it possible for me to get at least a 700?

By Piman3141 (Piman3141) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 12:33 pm: Edit

yes, tis so.

By Piman3141 (Piman3141) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 12:34 pm: Edit

yes, tis so.

By Edison427 (Edison427) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 12:40 pm: Edit

and i just found out that 5 questions are experimental...is this true?

By Worthfightingfo (Worthfightingfo) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 02:09 pm: Edit

i hope so..?

I didn't know how to do like 5 of them. the ones with like 10 lines or something? the cos and sin angle thing?

By Jangel86 (Jangel86) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 02:56 pm: Edit

For the 10 lines, I got 55, because it is 10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1.

What was the cos and sin one again?

By Worthfightingfo (Worthfightingfo) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 02:58 pm: Edit

sin of angle 1 compared to the cos of angles and then there's a choice.

By Curiouskatie (Curiouskatie) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 04:05 pm: Edit

yeah did anyone get those? they were wicked hard. i felt like this test was really easy, with a few questions that i had no clue to. there weren't many in between, for me at least.

By Calidan (Calidan) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 04:26 pm: Edit

For the lines one (I had no idea how to do it), I assumed (or did it say?) that none were parallel, so each line had to have been hit by 9 other lines (=10 total). The only answer choice that was a multiple of 9 was 45, so that's what I put.

For the sine of angle 1, I put that only angle 4 was equal to it.

For that question that had something like (6,m) and (m-1, 3) did anyone else put -.46?

By Crypticism (Crypticism) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 04:29 pm: Edit

Calidan, I also put that only the cos of angle 4 was equal to the sin of angle 1.

And I got -.46 on the m slope one as well.

I didn't do the lines one.

The test did seem quite easy, with the exception of a couple that were very difficult.

By Calidan (Calidan) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 04:33 pm: Edit

Yay! I hope I did well- I don't want to have to take it a THIRD time.

It really did seem like 90% of the questions were easy, but that 10% seemed really difficult. Practically NO moderate questions.

Did anyone do the lines one? I probably would have omitted it, but I decided not to omit anything and see how I do.

By Crypticism (Crypticism) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 04:37 pm: Edit

I should have guessed on the lines one, but I didn't have patience. I think, if you're very close, not omitting anything is a good idea. (at least if you have SOME logic behind your guessing)

This was my second time taking it too! Second times the charm? ;)

By Jangel86 (Jangel86) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 05:07 pm: Edit

For the angle question, I put that it was 2 and 4, because of complimentary angles and some other random geometry theorems.

I think i got -.46 but I'm not really sure.

I took the IIC today also, and I keep mixing up the two, but I think that the I was really easy and the II kicked my ass.

Is it true that the IC has a really really harsh curve compared to the IIC?

By Worthfightingfo (Worthfightingfo) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 05:50 pm: Edit

I got -.46 its definitely right because I tried out all the numbers..the loser way of doing it.

- yes its so true. If you get the same raw score for the two you have a GIANT leap in the IIC

By Xjay2max (Xjay2max) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 06:34 pm: Edit

Yes. It's angles 2 and 4 or something because well 4 - I know that was vertical angles and it worked out, and the other, the two were complementary, and sin/cos are complementary to each other... that is, sin 30 = cos 60 (30 + 60 is 90, etc.. i just learned it in a "review" for ap calculus the other day)

By Geoguy (Geoguy) on Saturday, October 09, 2004 - 11:23 pm: Edit

I did horribly. I was only sure about like 40 of them. I didn't even have enough time to go back over all the questions I skipped.

I got a 660 on Math SAT I, so I really hope my SAT II score won't be horrible compared to it. I haven't had a math class since May.

What's the approx. conversion between SAT I and SAT II Math? SAT I scores should be higher in SAT II format, right?

By Elizabeth22 (Elizabeth22) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 09:58 am: Edit

Well, if it helps, I got a 700 SAT I Math and a 700 SAT II IC score. I also got a 750 SAT I Verbal and a 750 SAT II Literature score- crazy, eh? At first I thought I was looking at my SAT I scores all over again.

By Tired_Student (Tired_Student) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 10:22 am: Edit

hey remember the octagon thing and the sum of the angles, was the answer 1080? 8-2(180)?

what about the thing with 2Y+X=4 thing
I was stuck between A and E, A was like mulitplyin the entire thing by 4 so you have 4Y+2X=16 or the negative thing which was -2Y-X=-4 or something I cant remember

By Curiouskatie (Curiouskatie) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 10:54 am: Edit

I got 1080, but i dont remember the other question-- I think i guessed

By Princewilvard (Princewilvard) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 12:13 pm: Edit

What about that one with the cross (looked like a plus sign made out of squares) where you had to decide which number to put in the middle so that the vertical and horizontal sums were equal? Did anybody get seven?

By Pkit (Pkit) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 12:19 pm: Edit

7 is right

By Tylenol (Tylenol) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 12:40 pm: Edit

hmmmm..

By Xjay2max (Xjay2max) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 12:46 pm: Edit

1080 is right. it was tricky in that they had the answer for ONE of the interior angles, but u had to multiply 135 by 8.

next - 7 is right. remember, out of the numbers they gave us, one number has to be REPEATED - and since each row equals 43, the whole thing has to equal 86. so you have to see which number, when doubled and added together with the other numbers, will yield an 86.

By Impulse3d (Impulse3d) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 02:52 pm: Edit

or for the cross question, you could realize that all of the other numbers that were given were even except for the 7 and if you were adding and wanted an odd result, seven would HAVE to be in the middle.

By Crypticism (Crypticism) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 04:33 pm: Edit

Tired Student, what was the 2Y+X=4 question that you referred to asking for? I don't remember it..

By Xjay2max (Xjay2max) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 04:59 pm: Edit

I think that was one with only one solution.

You had to eliminate the ones that had the same slope as the one given in the equation (because they would be parallel and therefore, never touch). Two of the choices (E and A) had the same exact line equation when solved for y -- only one had one exact solution (an intersection) and unfortunately I forgot what it was... you just needed to plug into calculator for that question basically.

By Pkit (Pkit) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 05:03 pm: Edit

there was a question where the answer choices were something like -2, -1, 0, 1, 2. do u guys remember what the answer was?

By Edison427 (Edison427) on Sunday, October 10, 2004 - 06:50 pm: Edit

i think i put -2....?
