<p>OH.. there was question that was somthing like: What do conservatives want people to do. Somthing like that</p>

142

<p>yay that's what i put...i think</p>

143

<p>anybody notice that the grammar section had a lot of OMITS as the answer.</p>

144

<p>yes.. many.</p>

145

<p>all the answers were omit...except one</p>

146

<p>what are you talking about?</p>

147

<p>Another was something like which degree measure is equal to cos/sin -5/7? (not sure if -5/7 is the fraction they gave)</p>

<p>Another person who noticed the enormous amounts of "Omits".</p>

148

<p>degree measure of 150</p>

149

<p>I think the answer was 150. or 100 and something. I'm pretty sure I got it right. I'm not entirely sure how to do it the quick way, but I just set my calculator in radians mode and calculated the values of sin and cos, then switched to degree mode and did the same for all the answers. Didn't seem too difficult if you had the time.</p>

150

<p>i got 150 too.</p>

<p>all i did was multiply the fraction by 180 (which is pi), then since it was negative, drew the angle (210) clockwise. that turned out to be 150.</p>

151

<p>lol that's exactly what i did</p>

152

<p>what did you guys put for that grammar question about which adjectives describe how volatile the parachuting was.</p>

153

<p>I got c. it said something about the parachute yanking the guy upwards.</p>

154

<p>i put the one that said yanked if thats the question your talking about</p>

155

<p>yank (yank is violent)</p>

156

<p>that's what i put.</p>

157

<p>This is a somewhat OT question. Do colleges take the best scores from each section and use that for admissions, regardless of test date? That's what my high school councelor told me. I was like o.O because I've heard otherwise from other people who say that the scores have to be from the same test.</p>

158

<p>I think thats true.</p>

<p>What was the question in english, where choices included:
Taut
Tighten</p>

159

<p>I don't see how that would work because most people only report one ACT score. It would cost multiple dollars to send more than 1 score.</p>

<p>Yea i rememebr putting taut and something else for that question, I don't remember seeing yanked.</p>

160

<p>taut and yanked were in the same sentence</p>
