<p>i agree with the understated choice. the other choices seemed like the captions were, i guess, needed to display the power, whereas the previous sentence says they were effective on their own.</p>
<p>Lol I agree necro- i see your point, and you are probably better at english than me, i've gotten a 35 on it three times probably because i miss this type of problem.
score predictions
e- 35-36
m-36
r- 33-34
s-31-33</p>
<p><em>sigh</em> I don't think I did well at all. I didn't think the questions were hard at all, but I take too long. There were a couple math questions I didn't get to, and a bunch of science questions. This was my first time taking the test. (I know I'm really behind for a Junior.) I guess I'll take it again in June.</p>
<p>Anyway, apart from my slowness, I was surprised at how easy the math questions were. The trig questions were some of the easiest for me.</p>
<p>Pffffffft. Whatever.</p>
<p>Predictions: </p>
<p>E: 28
M: -100
R: 30
S: 26</p>
<p>haha ok i'll go:</p>
<p>eng: 35
math:35
reading:32
science--depends on scale:32</p>
<p>composite--33.5=34!!!</p>
<p>I'm only good at grammar because I had Dr. Twomey of Johns Hopkins University (graduate program) tutor me. (yeah that's pretty insane). I also said it understated. If he realized the power, he would have highlighted it. The understatement, awfully close to underlining, is the best choice for that.</p>
<p>As long as we're predicting our scores...
35-36 English
36 Math
28-32 reading (I hope)
32-36 Science (don't know of anything wrong but I got a gut feeling...)</p>
<p>I pray for a 34+ :/</p>
<p>English: 34+
Math: 35+
Reading: 26 (I'm praying for this)
Science: 31+ (this was ehh was me)</p>
<p>Composite: 32 or 33 but most likely 32 :/</p>
<p>Retake</p>
<p>Yay Predictions!</p>
<p>English: 35-36
Math: 36
Reading: 30 (If I'm lucky)
Science: 30-31</p>
<p>Predictions:</p>
<p>English: 34
Math: 35 or 36
Reading: 31
Science: 31</p>
<p>Composite: 33</p>
<p>I'm feeling confident even though it was literally the first ACT I ever took (I didn't even take practice tests).</p>
<p>so that's it? no more questions?</p>
<p>I just want to ask everyone to post your scores here once you get them. Would be more interesting to compare yourself to equals than "national average."</p>
<p>english: 33-35
math: 34-36
reading: 33-36
science: hoopefully 31+ (guessed on entire last section, so all depends on scale)</p>
<p>what was the answer to the english one about the rainbow colored binder, choices were like briliant, multi hued, diverse, cant remember the last one</p>
<p>brilliant
all others are redundant</p>
<p>I put diverse.</p>
<p>it is brilliant. You already established that the rainbow is multi-colored. It doesn't make sense to repeat that message. Instead, you should say "dazzling" or "brilliant" to add more description.</p>
<p>what was the one about confidence/courage? it was on english.</p>
<p>i put confidence for that one.</p>
<p>Have we decided on why the guy made the boat on the reading passage? That question STILL gives me a headache. I put "to make money". ://</p>
<p>I can tell you FOR A FACT it wasn't to make money. Couple of reasons off the bat:</p>
<p>-monks living in monestaries don't need money
-prose fiction is about how people DON'T NEED money, not how people need money (usually about self-development or growth)
-the capitalism was linked to the question of "why innovate"; not why he made the boat</p>
<p>I don't remember for sure but I think I said to have something to do :/</p>
<p>what was the confidence/courage question? can someone please give some specifics because I don't remember it.</p>
<p>it was on the speech passage...something like "practicing the speech beforehand gives you the _______ (confidence was choice A--don't change)</p>
