I was taking a practice SAT II test for Latin, and one of the questions was:

15. Timeo _ne_amicas_meas_non_videam_ hodie.
A) that I may see my friends
B) that I may not see my friends
C) not to see my friends
D) that my friends will not see me

And you had to translate the underlined part. I chose A, because for verbs of fearing ut and ne are reversed, but the answer key said the answer was B. I was wondering if someone could explain why.

It's because in the subordinate clause, you have "...NON videam..." = I fear (that) I may NOT see my friends today.
