<p>cheating is why I hate high school, in every single class, there are phonies who always find ways to cheat and get better grades than me as a result. Or they just sweet talk their way through the class.</p>
<p>Aren't all the ACT books the same? One of the kidsfrom my school got a 22 the first time then got a 30 the 2nd, and kids saw him cheating. That really ****es me off, lucky he isn't applying to any of my schools.</p>
<p>lol....how do you program formulas in your calculator?</p>
<p>ok, as a student, i hate to cheat. I would much rather understand the principles than get a high score on let's say a physics test. On the other hand, i can easily see why many students would cheat, even with these sort of morales. It doesnt matter if your mistakes are stupid, or if you knew the stuff, or you had to go poop during your test. Your number is all the college is going to see, granted some colleges may be kind enough to understand. That is why I think some people would cheat. Of course some people just dont even care if they cheat on anything. O well, if no1 cheated, maybe the sat curves would be nicer eh lol</p>
<p>Seriously! It's not fair how much pressure they put on us.</p>
<p>Musicgirl... unfortunately practice wont always guarantee better. I did all the practice tests in the bluebook, and was getting maybe 2 or so wrong on each writing section, and i got a 640 on the real exam :/. I seriously wish there was a way to review your answers without paying the CB</p>
<p>I hate how people here at my school are sooooo happy with a 22-25 on their ACT's...and if I got that...I think I'd lock myself in my room and cry...I guess it just doesn't seem fair....but some people are applying to HYP...and others are applying to...well other schools...sometimes I wish I wouldn't set such high standards for myself.</p>
<p>what is HYP? and i completely understand. Like my sat score? Its not even that bad. I got like a 28 on my act. But to ME, that is failing. If i get a B on a test, i see that as failing. I hate being like this :/</p>
<p>HYP - Harvard, Yale, Princeton</p>
<p>I know...I get really upset when I get a B...and I beg the teacher for extra credit to improve my score...</p>
<p>Yeah I'm taking the ACT's this saturday....the minimum score I'm aiming for is a 30....it's a harsh life for us. lol</p>
<p>Ha. I want a 32 or above. 30 IMO is too low, as well as 31. We'll see. I feel so bad, all my teachers and every1 says im smart, but i just cant show it on these stupid tests. Lucky i dont want to go into medical school, id probaly fail those standardized tests too (mcats i think they're called?)</p>
<p>haha yeah I'm going for a 30 this time and then a 33> the next time...one step at a time for me.</p>
<p>I know exactly what you mean...I suck at these tests, but positive mentality people!</p>
<p>We are gonna ROCK these tests!</p>
