Go on, give it a try.:D

[Kfamr]

I got 2/5.:o

[Cincy'sMom]

I couldn't findo ut my score...it kept asking for a password. I'll keep trying!

[popcornbird]

4/5

80%..........................:(

Not exactly bad since there are only 5 questions, but that was pure luck because I was unsure about my answers. :o

[Freckles]

I missed #4.

Your turn, Liz:)

[Cataholic]

4/5....and I am calling for a revote on the one I got wrong!!:D

[Cincy'sMom]

Finally got it to work...

I also got a 4/5

[lizbud]

Well... 5 for 5.:o but it's only a verbal test. Now if it were
math??:eek: I hate those story questions in math, like
If a train started out at 5:15 pm, going 45 MPH and traveled
for 5 hours, what time would it be, etc,etc?:confused:

[mugsy]

I got 4/5 and I would contest the one that I missed which was the one on the journalist covering the strike....I say the answer could be either the one they are saying is correct AND the answer I chose.

The one I figured I'd miss, I got right too!! The others I was positive I was right, and see where it got me! lol :p

[zippy-kat]

5/5 but I could see #4 having more than one answer!

OMG! I LOVE LOVE LOVE those kind of math questions!!!!!!! Whenever I have those in math tests, I get 100%! :D:D:D Boy do I LOVE math! :) Hate vocabulary though. They have words that we RARELY ever use! :rolleyes:

[mugsy]

My beef was with #3!!! lol

[All Creatures Great And Small]

5 out of 5, but I usually don't have any trouble with verbal tests - it's math and science that totally stump me! If I tried those, I probably would get 0 out of 5!

Come on Lut, your english is by far better than mine.

I got 4/5 also missed number 4 :o
Anyhow they say A,B,C are all good guesses.



Question: Since many disadvantaged individuals view their situations as ------- as well as intolerable, their attitudes are best described as -------.

Explanation: The first and second blanks are negative, possibly neutral, words. What’s more, you should notice that they are saying similar things. Choice E is the only bad guess; choices A, B, and C are all good guesses. Guessing one of these choices would have been better than leaving the question blank.

Mugsy: By "beef" you mean "husband,partner,etc.." LOL , I like this :D

[tatsxxx11]

I got 5 for 5, BUT, I've always loved English and writing. And I'm with Liz......were this a math test, well, I'd flunk!:D

[Cookiebaker]

"Great job!
You got 5/5 correct."

Now, why did I do so horribly on the actual SAT's??????????????

[jenluckenbach]

4/5..........bring on the math and science!!!!

[primabella]
