<p>was the act actually harder than the last one that was offered? just curious.</p>
<p>I thought English was roughly the same, Reading was easier, Science was about the same, but Math was much much harder than the February Act.</p>
<p>for the love of god please be lenient on the curve</p>
<p>how do they decide on the curve?</p>
<p>it depends on how the nation does as a whole</p>
<p>well i hope the nation did terrible. =P</p>
<p>^^^ no…the curve is predetermined from what I hear</p>
<p>English: Easier, though last time was easy as well.
Reading: Slightly easier. Passages seemed slightly more straightforward.
Science: About the same. Maybe a touch easier.
Math: Noticeably harder - ran short on time unlike last time.</p>
<p>am I the only one who thought reading was harder?! last time I got a 33 and the passages were much more interesting… I think I’ll probably get closer to a 30 this time. math was 20x harder, English was the same, and science was about the same, maybe a little harder! I’m hoping that since this test was so difficult the next one may be better!!</p>
<p>I took it in April for the first time btw</p>
<p>First time taking it but I thought English, math, and reading were really easy and science was awful. The essay was decent.</p>
<p>Isn’t the point of a curve to normalize scores? How can it be predetermined?</p>
<p>I’ve taken the two ACT’s prior to this one, and I found the math to be significantly harder than usual.</p>
<p>I did better on English and science, similar or worse on reading, and way worse on math. Math was DEFINATELY harder than the April test.</p>
<p>math was noticeably harder</p>
<p>and for science it was easier</p>
<p>English was extremely easy, although there were some debatable ones.
Math was super duper harder. I scored 31’s in the Red Book, but I had to bubble in C or H for a bunch I couldn’t answer.
Reading was okay, I mean the questions for pretty straightforward, but I didn’t have enough time to answer one passage, so I bubbled in C or H.
Science was hard, too. I’m able to finish all of the science without major problems in the Red Book, but I was lost for the most part in science.</p>
<p>Overall, THIS TEST WAS SO FREAKING HARD. Except the English.</p>
