ACT April 4 ---- main discussion

<p>BarristerDad, April 15 (a Wednesday) is the earliest date you can see the scores online. midnight for the Midwest (central time), 10 pm West Coast, 1 am Eastern time, etc. ACT Headquarters are in Iowa, so that explains why the central time has the midnight score release</p>

<p>typically how many people get their scores posted on the first night of it? do most people ?</p>

<p>Yes. Most people do unless you had some kind of error on your test like a mistake in your match number or something.</p>

<p>^^okayyy good :) thank you !</p>

<p>For the ratio one it WAS 2:1 becaue it was from B TO A. If it were A to B as most peope would assume, it'd be 1:2 but it was actually the opposite. I'm 100% sure.</p>

<p>You're also 100% wrong.</p>

<p>It's 1:1.</p>

Wasnt it ",but" on the english section because it was contradicting something earlier in the sentence? something along the lines of "the store opens at 7, but i arrive at 6:30 or something."

<p>I'm pretty sure it was "although." That's what I put atleast. However soundd bad, and but sounded too short.</p>

<p>can anyone explain the logic behind the ratio problem?</p>

<p>its seems that most ppl are saying its 1:1, however some argue that it is 2:1</p>

<p>Can anyone please answer my query about different question papers for different countries?</p>

<p>I think someone mentioned this before, but one question was about "her wife vera"</p>

<p>I think I put</p>

<p>"so that, his wife, vera, could.... "</p>

<p>There were two ratio problems, I thought. One was line segments.. one was something else. The segments were 1:1, I think the other was 2 to 1.</p>

<p>does anyone know the answer to the last question on the test??</p>

<p>i guess (F)...it was something about temperatures</p>

<p>LOL how my name for the thread change??? It said offical...now says maindiscussion. Wierd...</p>

<p>I have a question off subject off of the April 4th act test..will colleges like UT take into consideration that I live in a small town that offer only 2 AP classes if I apply there?</p>

<p>I cant completely remember the problem but it was number 36. i didnt want to spend too long on it cus i was running out of time. i think it involved parachutes or something. i just remember putting c. do u guys know what it was?</p>

<p>I got:
conduction
1:1
saturn
condescendingly
between 6 and 7
i said it was the final set
erroneous bats
i think i got the merchandise one wrong
and the weeks/months on the flower passage wrong too. cus i remember in the passage, it said. The next week. And it asked for how long the person used the book, and it doesnt say that the girl used the book the next summer, so i said weeks.</p>

<p>for the snowflake one, the problem said that the electron microscopy thing saves money because....?</p>

<p>yes it did say that she used it next summer
the passage was set up into two columns
if you looked on the right side, i think the second paragraph, it said "The next summer..." and she was still talking about flowers she was looking for</p>

<p>There is a big debate in the ACT Reading Forum whether it is months or years. Both sides make a pretty good case. </p>

<p>Reasons for months: </p>

<p>The question says several _______, so several months would make more sense than several years if it is implying “next summer”</p>

<p>Reasons for years: </p>

<p>The passage has a quote stating that it was her companion for years.</p>

<p>Either way it is fair to say the answer is not days or weeks.</p>

<p>Yea,can’t wait to find out cuz I ordered and back :).</p>

<p>but it couldnt have been years, because in the passage it stated that she used it again the following year. so it has to be months. it cant be yearS because only one year passed, and year isnt plural.</p>

<p>if that makes sense</p>

<p>It said it was her companion for years in the book. Also, due to the wear we saw in both the passage and another question, it can be inferred that it had to have been her companion for more than a few months, leading us to the correct answer of years.</p>
