Nevertheless I wish you the best of luck. Try to do some research in etymology of words regarding prefixes and suffixes; it might be of some help with the Critical Readin section ![]() Also, since your post was at 11:11 I'll wish for you to get a good score.

The pattern would suggest that " II and III only" is the wrong answer, but I can imagine someone being a dick and making that one the right answer and putting the option " I " in all others just to mess with kids' heads. | ||

for the SAT, all questions, whether they are super easy or super hard, are worth the same. so if you have doubts on a question and dont know the answer in 30 seconds, then mark it and skip it and just nail all the ones you are sure on. from there, use your judgment - if you can eliminate one or two options, it is probably in your favor to guess. | ||

I figured it was a careless typo. if it were "I, II and II" it would imply "I and II" and either both options (b) and (e) are right or wrong. So that makes for either 2 or 3 wrong choices, rather than one, as the guy who posed the question pointed out. | ||

So basically, if you can eliminate 2, just go for it and guess. If you're aiming for a 750+, consider that the raw score is rounded UP, so you can miss two your raw score will be the same as if you had left the answers blank. When I took the SAT and its affiliated subject tests, I was never in a situation where I could only eliminate an answer. Sometimes I had to choose btwn 2 or 3, and that's when I just guessed. Worked out pretty well, I got a 2310. | ||
