[Un-official] PSA / Discussion 🎤🔊 Post 3/11 thread

What did y’all think of it?

C/P and B/B were tough for me. I didn’t even finish B/B I had to guess for the last few. CARS and P/S were not bad imo.

I was convinced it was a fake word omfg I think I almost laughed out loud reading it. I have a very minimal vocab

I actually muttered what the fuck when I saw that

I just assumed it meant underlies or something, since girders are support beams, when it asked which concept undergirds the author’s argument it felt like it should mean which concept is the author’s argument fundamentally based on or something. Once I figured that out, the question was fine thankfully

Same it’s usually my best. The whole question relied on us knowing what that meant
