4/14 ACT Thread

<p>acupuncture sucked.</p>

<p>the question was asking the average amounts of points scored per match.</p>

<p>but i believe some schools, brown and wash u come to mind, look at the highest for each section and will recalculate it, or that's what i saw here before</p>

<p>Who i believe</p>

<p>I think it was who...... Like 90% of the time its who.</p>

<p>i put who, but i wasn't positive</p>

<p>so what kind of scores are you guy hoping for?</p>

<p>i don't remember the questions for the acupuncture because i had 5 minutes left and i was still reading the passage. i would probably remember my answers if somebody knew the questions, though.</p>

<p>it was who. i think it said "the tortoise ____" or something like that and it would be who because whom is only used after a preposition.</p>

<p>i used the Real ACt, and the McGraw hills one, and like im also pretty good at bio and stuff, like i did well on the chlorophyll one but the very last one, although i t had to do with bio, it was more reading comprehension and u could only assume prior knowledge for maybe 1 or 2 of those questions... </p>

<p>All in all, i find the science stuff "unique" meaning all i see are straight graphs in practice and on the acutal thing they get more complex with diagrams and everything</p>

<p>for the "each of the parent('s)/s' question, the answer would be s' because of the preposition "of," which connotates one out of many. Each of my colleges' blah blah blah, etc. You couldn't say each of my college's blah blah. Same principle with the question</p>

<p>acupunture possible answers:
--i think the answer to the yang one was pale face. </p>

<p>--and also exposure to light.**</p>

<p>--qi wouldnt make someone ill if it was change in temperature</p>

<p>i agree with 2 of yours yanksman, i dont remember anything about exposure to life</p>

<p>yeah I think so too... I thought the real ACT book is easier. My score from the March 13 (in michigan) act was 4 points lower than my practice test. Maybe you should get old real ACTs....They claim the ones in that book are real...but who knows how much they have edited them or what not.</p>

<p>they sold out of the real act book when i went to the book store, and only had learning express, and it was useless other than the internet stuff that you get when you buy the book. however, i did find the kaplan cds to be useful, although not sure how good the book is but i'd assume it's useful</p>

<p>my bad. haha im so stressed about how difficult part of this test was</p>

<p>Acupuncture question:</p>

<p>Placebo effect:</p>

<p>I putting sticking a needle in a non ______ nerve.</p>

<p>sorry not sure what the word was</p>

<p>I remember another answer was:
traveling up the spinal cord into the brain and released chemical</p>

<p>Headache I put for another answer.</p>

<p>Another answer:
sticking needles on the outer foot.</p>

<p>ooo i remember one where a placebo was used, and they knew it worked cuz they tested a non acupuncuture point or something, i remember D?</p>

<p>Yeah exposure to life?</p>

<p>do most good schools (ivy and ivy-comparables) take teh best out of the best of each ACT score, like can u mix and match to make a SUPER SCORE? thanks</p>

<p>i dont think it was headche, i thaught it was nausea, it was rite out of the passage</p>

<p>lol yeah they like stuck in the big toe.</p>

<p>And one was like the spinal chord and brain that RELEASES chemicals?</p>

<p>i don't think so omarr, but a few schools do, i remember someone saying brown (which is ivy) and wash u (close to ivy compatible) do</p>
