<p>Hey CC Board!</p>
<p>Just wanted to ask if any of you guys think the ACT has gotten (is that a word) progressively harder each testing date this year. If yes, how? And what should I study. And of course, any reading/science tips?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>I don't know which versions of the test might have been harder than others this year, but I do know that the different versions are weighted and the scoring conversion is adjusted so that scores on different tests are very very close to equivalent. If you look at the score conversion tables for different sample tests, you'll see that each one is unique. On some of them, for example, you can miss one Reading question and still get a 36 in Reading; on some of them, you can't. This means that the latter were determined to be slightly harder than the former. That means that if you do get a slightly harder test, you aren't at a disadvantage, because the score conversion is slightly easier to compensate.</p>
