Countdown and Results Thread for December 2008 ACT

<p>^Ditto</p>

<p>Half of the people in my class started putting their heads down half-way through the science test, and I doubt it was because they finished early.</p>

<p>Seriously, I had to guess on like 8 questions....hopefully D works this time...</p>

<p>I was doing great until I got to science. The science is going to screw me over, holy crap.</p>

<p>Luckily, the ACT curve is based on how well everyone else did I think.</p>

<p>I guessed D on the ones I didn't know...
: P</p>

<p>I really do hope it's like that hipster...how many can i miss and still get a 29/30 in science? I just need a 34 composite...</p>

<p>EDIT: I studied the past ACTs and D usually is prominent the most with 10 to 11 answers being D and the others with 9/10.</p>

<p>Math is going to suck bad for me :(</p>

<p>26 if I'm lucky. 36 reading 34 english? 35 science/ I think</p>

<p>35 science? whoa, nice, do you remember what you put for the question about (H) (D) increasing or decreasing, which was second to last question, or the one about R and T are genes 10 map units apart?</p>

<p>i think i put h and d were both increasing</p>

<p>^Thanks, that's what I got too (though i guessed on that)</p>

<p>H and d both increasing, but the crossover thing was the only one I couldnt 100% figure out. I put Rt Tt</p>

<p>SCIENCE WAS IMPOSSIBLE - I NEED A MIRACLE TO HAPPEN to DO WELL on that!!</p>

<p>THe others were ok - I had time left on the English </p>

<p>Does anyone know what the usual curve for the science is?</p>

<p>My S1 also said science killed him - had to bubble in last 7. Hope for a good curve.</p>

<p>did the question ask for the crossover of RR and tt, or Rt and rT? I can't remember but I might know the answer.</p>

<p>@Mango Man</p>

<p>I think its Rr Tt. It was the one that didn't have 2 capital lettesr or the rT.</p>

<p>^ That's what I got too, but I'm not sure because the recombination factor is so small the alleles shouldn't seperate</p>

<p>what did you get for the one where it asked for which degree would the ball end up over the wall?</p>

<p>i put B (110 and ###)</p>

<p>it is rT and tR. I'm fairly sure i got it right but im not sure im remembering it correctly because we did in bio class a month ago. </p>

<p>r T <---- These switch and combine to rT
R t <---- These switch and combine to Rt</p>

<p>spaza that was one of the two i guessed on. I put (B) for both so thats what i got lol.</p>

<p>Yeah science seemed incredibly hard, but I'm really hoping on a good curve. Does anyone else think that if they seriously just gave us 5 extra minutes on science, reading, and math it would be much easier?</p>

<p>Spaz is right, that's what I put I just couldn't remember lol. </p>

<p>@above
You switched capital R with little r like how they did in the diagram. rR and rT</p>
