Estimate my score...

<p>For some reason, I don't trust the McGraw-Hill method of giving you your ACT score. This was my 2nd practice test (untimed) and I am really thrilled how it came out, but before I get my hopes up, I want to know about how I would have done on your "average" curve, because I don't trust the correction factors haha.</p>

<p>English: 71/75 (4x)
Math: 58/60 (2x)
Reading: 33/40 (7x)
Science: 38/40 (2x)</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>28+ (10char) </p>

<p>Take the real ACT book if you want more accurate predicitons with time.</p>

<p>Welllllll, that’s humbling :(</p>

<p>I can’t believe I seriously thought I had a 34 (lol). Any more opinions on this?</p>

<p>In other words, what percentile would I be for each subject (based on # of incorrect answers) and I will compare it with [ACT</a> Score Information: National Ranks for Test Scores and Composite Score](<a href=“ACT Test Scores | ACT Scoring | ACT”>ACT Test Scores | ACT Scoring | ACT)</p>

<p>I didn’t say you had a specific score, but if you got that on some unknown test booklet not made by ACT inc., then it’s impossible to really guage your score. I’m saying anything between 28-35 is completely possible. It’s just that non red book isn’t a very good measure nor is not using time restrictions (if you want an accurate score, better to practice with none tho).</p>

<p>Did you take this out of a McGrawHill book or you just didn’t want to use their score conversision? McGrawHill is definitely much easier than the real ACT. It also hurt that you took it untimed. Go with cjgone’s advice and use the red boook</p>

<p>Canderson: I took it out of a McGraw-Hill Book. I’m taking it untimed for now as practice because I don’t take the real ACT until April.</p>

<p>ok. i would highly reccommend princeton review for practice. McGrawHil questions do not compare to the ones you will see on the real ACT. The math is especially not up to par. Use PR 1,296 ACT questions. there are some typos but it is the best practice and models the ACT very well.</p>

<p>^get a real prep book… mcgraw’s ok for the sat, but the test questions are a joke for the ACT… I mean… how did I end up with a 37 on math with their scale? I’ll never know…</p>

<p>unkike the people above i will break it down for you…
based upon about 5 practice tests i have from real act prep, to princeton, to barrons</p>

<p>english 33-34
math 34-35
reading 28-30
science 32-34</p>

<p>composite- 31.75-33.25= 32-33, if the test was graded easy you would be about 1-2 questions away from a 34 :frowning: </p>

<p>pm once you get your results</p>

<p>^Amazing post. Thank you FutureENTSurgeon. I will shoot you a PM once I take it (in April) :D</p>

<p>I’m not 100% sure about that FutureENTSurgeon. I took a McGrawHill test with other practice tests when I first started studying and the composite score it gave me was 2-3 points off from scores i was getting in princeton review, red book, and my score in September. He may not be that close to a 34, especially since it wasn’t timed. Sorry we didn’t answer your question like you wanted but this is what you would eventually need to hear anyway</p>

<p>That’s cool, I don’t NEED a 34 for where I’m planning to apply, but a 30/31 would be awesome, not perfect, but put me in very good shape for the school I want to go to.</p>

<p>same here. it would take off 90% of the nervousness for my college admissions. I’m hoping I get that in February.</p>
