Thread to discuss the exam for tomorrow's exam, as requested by si.
How did you read all of S1 and S2 in 10 minutes? What is this saucery, and can it be learned?For me personally, I attempted S3, then the rest by the page order. During the reading time, I read all of my S1 and S2 texts, so I have a foundation when I had to read it again. S1 and S2 were straightfoward for me, except there was a few S3 that I didn't get. I'm not sure what my score is, but I guess we'll find out in two months ))))
More of a skim read, idkHow did you read all of S1 and S2 in 10 minutes? What is this saucery, and can it be learned?
Solved first 5-10 questions by reading passages and stuff.More of a skim read, idk
What did you guys do in the 10 minutes
Did anyone feel like there was little to no Section one questions that were the type in which you extract information from a body of text? I feel like they were everywhere in the medentry papers but the UMAT only seemed to have problem solving, so I got destroyed in section 1. All i needed was a raw score of over 150 and/or 50 in each section since Im a rural student but even thats looking pretty tough at this point .
I agree I couldn't decide between two every time. Also wow you must be good at section 3 it was really hardAm i the only one who found s2 really dodgy. I narrowed the answer options down to 2 and then kidna educated guessed which was right. Other sections were alright, and s3 was fine for the most part except maybe 2 or 3 questions.
1000000% agreeDuring practice exams, S3 was straightforward while my S1 lacked due to the scientific ones. During the exam it was totally the opposite. S1 was fine but S3, some I couldn't do.
What question was "didn't not do worse than"?Oh that flower thing was trash. It didn't make sense, and it took me some time to even realise the tables had the additive switching from top to bottom. But the answers didn't really make sense. There were actually few questions in the paper that had answers that didn't really fit or make sense or were worded badly. (especially that painful "didn't not do worse than" or whatever question)
That was at the end of the cancer question I think (the tables comparing 1970's to 2010 cancer detection). I'm not too sure, but I think that was the question. Anyway, the 4 options for the the answer were all in the form of "treatment a didn't do worse than treatment b at procedure a" and it was a pain to figure out all the double negatives.What question was "didn't not do worse than"?
Also yeah I was like wtf these tables are exactly the same but finally realised it was swapped
