**December 14 ACT Thread**

<p>What was the question about chronological order in the first passage about the train or something like that? I believe it was question 9 or 10 on reading.</p>

<p>I wasn’t sure if we were supposed to consider the events in his flashback as happening first or the actual first event that was described in the passage. </p>

<p>Everyone seems to agree that reading was easy, but I thought it was one of the harder sections. In order of increasing difficulty: Math, English, Reading, Science (but only because of time constraints)</p>

<p>The only math problem I couldn’t get was number 60. The wording seemed ambiguous to me. Can someone explain?</p>

I think 71E or 73E, maybe 74. Haha, sorry I can’t remember. I had the passage of the painter and ski spas and fake snow.
As far as I’m concerned, I have the same test as the one you guys are discussing
Idk though, it might be the same passage but differently arranged questions?</p>

<p>I was pleasantly surprised by most of the test (especially math and english). I last took the ACT in June, my only time, and have studied quite hard with “Cracking the ACT 2013 Edition” and I can honestly say it helped me so much.
Old scores
English 20
Math 23
Reading 22
Science 25
Composite 23
What I am expecting
English 30+ (was not sure about 7-9 questions, but it is more subjective than say math so shooting low)
Math 32+ (knew all of them for sure but maybe 4-7 questions)
Reading 27 (time…)
Science 28 (judging by the google doc)
Composite 28~29
Time really killed me on reading and science, I just wish I had more time to practice. 71E
@shanethesemi I took it literally and did consider flash back and picked the grassy field one.</p>

<p>Me too my friend!</p>

<p>The google doc got destroyed. What a shame…</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the question after the “what’s unusual about this fossil” question in the science section about the ancestors of a bird?
I honestly remember putting feather twice in a row as an answer, but I don’t remember the question that well</p>

<p>My 7th grader took the test today. He ran out of time on the science section. He said he didn’t even answer the last 10 questions. While he went in without any studying and wasn’t expecting to do well I’m thinking that the science section maybe harder than other parts of the test. I’m sure he guessed a lot on the other sections but at least he was able to read through all of it and answer something…</p>

<p>I have the document in word (didnt refresh, saw it was deleted here and copied it lol) but the doc page is set off to comments only so i cant paste it and I don’t have a google account. create one and share the link through here</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the English question where the choices were like </p>

<p>No change
(New paragraph)
(New paragraph) Nevertheless,
Nevertheless,</p>

<p>I put no change</p>

<p>can’t remember but im almost positive it was one that didnt involve making a new parragraph.</p>

<p>was it like me or like I?</p>

<p>^Like me.</p>

<p>Like is a preposition and can only be accompanied by an object pronoun, not subject.
For example, you don’t say, “That kid is really cool. He is like I.”
Just try to rearrange the sentence a little bit if you get confused on some of those things.</p>

<p>Anyone whose test was cancelled hear about re-scheduled date? Concerned because of upcoming potential conflicts. Wishing luck to all those who took it today. My D had mixed feelings…more time to study…more time to stress.</p>

<p>@saddtictac5 as awesome as that would be, I don’t them it will be the same one. They have a ton of different forms.</p>

<p>They also know people discuss it even though they shouldn’t Lol</p>

<p>@shane
Number 60 was about a circle and you had to find the angle of a triangle right?
A of shaded =32pi r=6
Find the area of the whole circle, it is 36pi
with this you can find that the angle is 40 degrees inside the circle
180=90+40+angle
angle=50 degrees</p>

<p>@Axel0102 can you put it on here? Thanks
<a href=“ACT - Google Docs”>ACT - Google Docs;

<p>I agree with geaux. Also, how much/what did you guys write for the essay?</p>

<p>I’m sorry, as soon as I found out some people had not yet taken the test I deleted it.</p>
