4/14 ACT Thread

<p>I am pretty sure it was chicago though..</p>

<p>Yeah, I used that same book, but it says that because theres this "correction factor," which is the curve, I'm assuming. But without the curve, like a 33-34... I probably got like a 32-33 without curve.</p>

<p>yah just wish i got the effing who vs whom right...</p>

<p>it was headache not nausea... dont remember why but it was defiantly headache</p>

<p>what scores are you guys aiming for before you send them off to college?</p>

<p>That Ice Age passage was so totally lame and uninteresting. The only one I really liked was the Louie Armstrong one. All the others were so weakk.</p>

<p>haha i love how ppl say its defintely headache or defeintely nausea</p>

<p>who actually read that passage?
i didnt cuz i didnt have enuf time, so i guessed headache for the same reason (it sounded the most painful that acupunture could help)</p>

<p>Was the very last triangle problem, where it asks for area, 4? I was rushed for time... it looked easy enough.</p>

<p>Well apparently acupuncture helps relieve headaches AND nausea. But...when you think of pain, you think more of headaches. Nausea is more of...discomfort.</p>

<p>I think the math and science are going to have better than normal curves.</p>

<p>By the way I found out from a friend that this test was the EXACT same test that was admistered in October of last year. That test wasn't released though.</p>

<p>Akalboy-- I just want anything 30+</p>

<p>nausea was a distracter because it mentioned something about doing accupuncture on pregnent women with nausea. but the question referred you to a specific paragraph, and asked which one it cured, and it was headache because of hte pain thingy</p>

<p>Headache was the only with pain.</p>

<p>who actually read that passage? </p>

<p>ME!!!</p>

<p>I read all the passages and get done w/ 5 min left... no lie</p>

<p>cant do 60 math problems to save my life though</p>

<p>Damn, I don't remember what I put on that one.</p>

<p>I think I put headache aswell..</p>

<p>I thought it was the area of the triangle was 4. I suck at math, but I thought the height was like 2 and the base was 4...so that would be 8, then /2 is 4. I dunno thought. I was hesitant about putting that because it just seemed to easy and a bunch of the other answers had square roots in them.</p>

<p>i think at first i put headache, then read closer and put nausea? bah this is just a big mess</p>

<p>I'm trying to get a 34-35, but I'm almost positive I got like a 32-33... unless there's an uber nice curve. :D</p>

<p>wow, wish i had taken it in october instead of the sat's then, lol. do you know the curve from october?</p>

<p>and yeah, i really hope i broke at least 30 because my parents are really pressuring me, lol</p>

<p>I would be happy with anything 29 + for this is my first test. I am somewhat happy my first test was difficult because I plan to retake so hopefully the next will be easier.</p>
