When I was in high school, I did very well on the SAT.
I unfortunately did well because the questions were ‘coded’.
What this meant was that you could solve some style of questions without knowing the answer.
Here’s an example I came across tonight on facebook:
In Stargate-SG1, What was the SGC designation for the Goa’uld homeworld?
- P3X-932
- P3X-888
- P3Z-888
- P6Y-888
I have no idea what the answer is. But I can guess it.
Below the cut is why I guessed it and how to get this type of question right almost every time.
