<p>did you guys do a punnet square for that?</p>
<p>You guys are worrying me by saying the reading was easy! I thought that section was an absolute beast! English was harder than usual, math was normal, maybe -2 or -3, had to guess on last two because of time.</p>
<p>Baseball section was ok I had to kind of rush and guestimate due to time.</p>
<p>^ I know when I got to it a few of the questions I answered seemed easy but bc of time I had to guess on most. Ticks me off.</p>
<p>Science was a beast, english was easy, math was ok, and reading was more tedious than usual. Overall I think I did OK. I'm a junior so there is still time.</p>
<p>I think taking the SAT the week before really helped me in ACT considering I didn't study for ACT at all, but Science was just a BEAST!</p>
<p>English I thought was WAY easier than the last time I took the ACT, and I got a 34 then. I think I got a 35, since I put down "whet" as an incorrect answer instead of "disturb" because I was thinking of whet as sharpening and disturb as, well, stimulating lol. The math was hard to me, but it always is =/ Reading was pretty easy, but the Science will decide my fate <em>crosses fingers for a nice curve</em></p>
<p>^wait...so disturb was the correct answer right??</p>
<p>yes because they asked which word would be LEAST acceptable.</p>
<p>I was thinking whet would be the least acceptable, because disturbing does stimulate... and whet in almost all cases means to sharpen or to make keener. The rest were all acceptable, but whet in the context didn't make sense to me as stimulating.</p>
<p>Here's hoping for -1 is still a 36 =P</p>
<p>I was thinking that whet means to arouse, so I picked disturb on that one.</p>
<p>I didn't know what foo whet mean so i went ahead and bubbled it in because disturbed seemed like it could possibly fit in that context.</p>
<p>I was considering putting whet, but then thought of "whets my appetite". lol</p>
<p>Now that I think of it, the passage talked about how the guy (I don't even remember his name now lol) used his creativity to explore science fiction films, and how he stimulated his audiences. In the science fiction context given I would think "disturb" would better fit "stimulate" than whet, and therefore I would choose whet.</p>
<p>This is killing me haha.</p>
<p>It was "disturbing", end of story.</p>
<p>The Q was asking which was least unacceptable and why would he want to disturb people's imagination?</p>
<p>In Science, ball speeds of 100,110, and 120 would have made it over the fence.</p>
<p>It wasn't about whether he wanted to "disturb" them, it was which was most stimulating. Disturbing is more stimulating than "whet."</p>
<p>We'll see how it turns out when our results come back. Until then, there is no "end of story."</p>
<p>disturb was not the correct type of stimulation... it was meant to be more of a positive form of stimulation...</p>
