Anyone know if these tests are any harder or easier historically? Is it just a crapshoot as to the difficulty of the test?
The March ACT test given in Michigan was considered harder than the national ones.
I just took it today, they are the same throughout the state, maybe even country. But, they are harder if you could not tell after today. What was your form three digit number?
I don’t remember my form #, but I found it pretty hard. Last time I took it I got a 26 without any studying. I took it today and feel I did a bit worse with studying. I didn’t finish the science(had to guess on the last 8 or 9 questions) and had to rush on the reading. The only one I felt very comfortable in was the English, where I probably missed 2 or 3. Math was iffy. I’m kind of mad I sent these scores. I still haven’t sent my scores from my last test either. Luckily for me, for the college I want to go to, a 26 is more than enough.
I don’t remember my form # either, but I didn’t think it was so bad. I personally thought the english section was a bit more challenging than before, but I’m interested to hear everyone else’s opinions on the test
ALSO, my stupid teachers didn’t let us use our own watches…?? I complained and complained and they refused to let me use my SILENT watch. I’m so pissed about that. Can I report this to ACT or something?
ALSOOOO if you got form 72A, looks like they reused it from Feb 8 2014!!! Time to go check my answers!
I’m using this link: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/act-preparation/1613833-february-8-2014-official-act-answers-thread-p3.html
My teacher told me to put away my watch too! Luckily for me, I had a printed out copy of the ACT’s website FAQ section regarding watches and time keeping devices!
I took it today as well as the April 18 national test. I thought science and math were a tad easier today. Reading def harder and English about the same.
@CBeal23 what was your reading test about?
DELETED BY MODERATOR Discussion about specific questions is not allowed.
@ACTStudent twitter saying scores from the April 28 test will be mailed out first (3-8 weeks) and that after this, you will be able to see them on your Student ACT on-line account.
So will it just appear in our account with maybe an email to notify us? Or do we have to get it from the mail and manually add it to our accounts if we already have one? I’m at a residential high school and we all used our home addresses.
@StuckInState2016 I was told they will be mailed first and then if you have a Student ACT account from a prior national test, they will try to merge this score into that account. If not, we’re supposed to call and they can add it to your account. But was told the first we’ll see the scores is in a mailed report, mailed to the address you used on the test. Sounds like we will not see them on-line until later.
Has anyone received their scores in the mail yet?
This is pure torture. I don’t even know if I’m going to show up at the June 13th test because of this
Nope. Still haven’t gotten my scores. Parents checking the mail everyday an haven’t gotten a thing. I’ve been checking the website on the off chance that it gets posted there before I get it in the mail but still nothing. I don’t know anyone that’s gotten theirs yet.
Looks like the people who took the state tests in March received results 5-6 weeks after the test. Since 11 states tested in April, I would guess we have another few weeks to wait
Have not received mine either. I’m thinking I may get my June 13 test results before these.
DS received his results from April 28th exam (administered at his HS) on Friday. Nice way to ruin his weekend. :((
What state? was it the ACT with writing or without?
Test state is AL; it was the version without writing.
