December 2010 ACT Reading Discussion

Test Preparation ACT Preparation
1

<p>Discuss all Reading questions here after the test tomorrow. Good luck! :)</p>

2

<p>this one was pretty hard. Math was easy. English was okay i guess. Science was pretty hard as well.</p>

3

<p>Proud to say I bombed the reading (I thought it was harder than usual)…still hoping for a 35 superscore!</p>

4

<p>reading was definitely harder this time, the 3rd passage killed me and I ran of time on the last section :/</p>

5

<p>Reading was the easiest section IMO, Science was also pretty easy as well. Can’t say the same for math xD</p>

6

<p>I ran out of time on the fourth passage. The proctor called time when I had seven (unanswered) questions remaining.</p>

7

<p>So…anyone want to start discussing questions?</p>

8

<p>what was the painter’s view of Haarlem?</p>

9

<p>

</p>

<p>There’s so few top schools that super score the ACT. And if they superscore, that just means you have a ton of competition. People with 33s can superscore 35s quite often anyway.</p>

10

<p>^No…i am too scared to know what i got wrong.</p>

11

<p>^ I put a place he can only leave temporarily or something like that.</p>

12

<p>I think I put that too, but I wasn’t completely sure :/</p>

13

<p>^I know that’s right for a fact. Because in the passage it said he lived there for the REST OF HIS LIFE. So he can only temporarily leave from Haarlem.</p>

14

<p>

</p>

<p>Thank you for your “subjective” answer; do you have any evidence of this?</p>

15

<p>Question about who created all of the dances in the festival?</p>

16

<p>the narrator? that’s what i put.</p>

17

<p>That’t what i thought, but i ended up putting the previous generations.</p>

18

<p>I put the narrator because it mentioned her creating a song/dance</p>

19

<p>I said last generation, because it only mentioned her creating the one song, and she mentioned how she hadn’t learned a new song in forever AND it said that songs / dances were passed generation to generation</p>

20

<p>^Earlier in the passage it stated that it was a tradition to have earlier generations create songs that they danced and celebrated. So I put earlier generations. It never said the narrator was the one who was creating the majority of them.</p>
