<p>Hehe. I guess I'll join in here. just my first time taking it though, not sure if I'm going to try to raise it.</p>
<p>Composite score of 30.
35 in science :D</p>
<p>So I'm a member, but just barely. 30.25. If I had only done better in the math section.</p>
<p>English: 35
Math: 27. kill me.
Reading: 30
Science: 29</p>
<p>30 comp., in spite of miserable 23 on science. Any suggestions on how to raise science. I ran out of time and just filled in B on last 10 or so. Probably not good idea.hmmmm</p>
<p>Was thinking of sticking with SATs but if I can just get that science up, ACT would certainly enhance. Sure would be nice to just delete science from the equation...any schools out there allow that???</p>
<p>31.5 ---> 32 WOOOT (first time taking it)</p>
<p>comp: 30
barely made it too</p>
<p>english: 33
math: 29 <--?! supposed to be my best section
reading: 26 <--failed miserably
science: 33 <-- suprise</p>
<p>Comp = 33.</p>
<p>oh boo</p>
<p>Composite 31
English 33
Math 33
Reading 29 (soooo happy for this thought I would surely get a 25)
Science 27 (do not know what happened, got a 34 last time)</p>
<p>This was my first time taking it... no prep! =)</p>
<p>Composite: 32
English: 30
Math: 32 (I don't know what happened... math is my strongest subject)
Reading: 31
Science: 34 (I was worried about this one...Just goes to show that some practice tests are crap. Took 2 of Peterson's and got a 20 both times)</p>
<p>Yeah! First time! Thank goodness for rounding.
Composite: 34
English: 33
Math: 32
Reading: 35
Science: 34</p>
<p>I thought I did horrible on this test. When I checked my score, I was praying to break 30. Ironically, I thought I was going to ace the math section and fail the science section. For all you Feb. takers, when should we get our essay score back? Thanks.</p>
<p>Mine is actually up right now. I don't know how long it's been there since I just checked it.</p>
<p>Question: If a college does not require the writing section, does it matter if you took it and did rather poorly? I got a 34 composite with a 9 on the writing section...and English/writing stuff makes up a huge portion of my ECs. I'm a strong writer but I guess I suck at standardized essays.</p>
<p><em>sigh</em> I'm sad. I thought I was done (first time taking it). But now I have to retake in April just to fix that stupid essay section.</p>
<p>Is it that easy to nail 34/35? ACT seems easier than SAT. but do you guys read the whole passages? and I assume writing is harder.</p>
<p>What books does a person need to ace the ACT. ( The act official test, Princeton ACT, ? )</p>
<p>A 34/35 is NOT easy to nail, no matter what anyone says. I mean, come on, it's in the freaking 99+ percentile.</p>
<p>it's easier for some people than a 1500+ SAT</p>
<p>yeah...i think i'm a pretty good example:</p>
<p>1st ACT:
composite-33
math-32
english-34
science-32
reading-33</p>
<p>essay- 6 haha...long story</p>
<p>2nd ACT:
composite-34
math-35
english-35
reading-33
science-33</p>
<p>essay-??</p>
<p>1st SAT:
math-740
reading-630...far from a 33 on the ACT
english-740 w/ 10 essay
total: 1370/2110</p>
<p>it just depends on which is easier for YOU. i work so much better with the way the english questions, math questions, and reading questions are worded on the ACT</p>
<p>Hi all. First post! :)</p>
<h2>35 comp</h2>
<p>35 english
32 math
36 reading
35 science
10 essay</p>
<p>1st time taking it and I was uber surprised. When I saw it the first time I thought it had to be a mistake!</p>
<p>Just got writing in.</p>
<p>English: 34
Reading: 34
Math: 28 -<em>-
Science: 34
Writing: 8 -</em>-</p>
<p>Since that was with no prep, a retake is probably in my future.</p>
<p>35 Composite.</p>
<p>This was my first time.</p>
<p>Composite: 33 (Bleh)
English: 36
Writing: 36
Math: 30
Science: 30
Essay: 10</p>
<p>Math and Science aren't good, but I really thought I would do worse. I ran out of time and totally guessed on about 5 questions with both. I'm not thrilled with a 33, but it definitely is better than I thought I would do right after I took the test.</p>
<p>My first time back in December:</p>
<p>Composite: 30
English: 34
Math: 25 ... meh. I'm not too great at math
Reading: 31 .. that was a surprise
Science: 28
Writing: 11</p>
<p>I'm taking it again in April and hope to get my terrible math score up and my science score as well.</p>
<p>Posts 138 & 139: RETAKE!!! It's all about the timing. Now you know what to expect.</p>
