Estimating my Scores and Guessing

<p>Well i have two things I ask of you all..</p>

<p>First, can you estimate my scores based on how much i missed :/..And yes I know i did bad.</p>

<p>Math
-22 or 38/60
Writing
-10 or 65/75
Reading
-10 or 30/40
Science
-13 or 27/40</p>

<p>And Second, in your opinion, which answer was the best to geuss if you blind guessed? I personally just did all C's.</p>

<p>I can’t really estimate your score for you because I don’t know what the curves will be, but I can tell you that if you have to guess blindly, do not guess B or C. The test has been scrutinized so much that the test writers avoid making B or C the answer to commonly guessed types of questions. That doesn’t mean B or C won’t be the right answer, but if you’re gonna guess, try to avoid them. :)</p>

<p>Some questions are worth more than others, its impossible to predict a score</p>

<p>I can give you a rough estimate. </p>

<p>Math - 23
English - 31
Reading-27
Science-24
Composite-26</p>

<p>I did the calculations and these are rough estimates without curves or anything.</p>

<p>I think the calculation you are talking about is:</p>

<h1>Correct * 36 / Total Questions</h1>

<p>Or something like that. I don’t think that’s what they actually use though. Actually, as a matter of fact, I’ve read in 2 places there IS NO CURVE for the ACT. The scale-raw ratio is ALWAYS the same.</p>

<p>well, that’s wrong :P. there are curves for the ACT.</p>

<p>Barely anything said in this thread is true…</p>

<p>" Some questions are worth more than others, its impossible to predict a score "</p>

<p>This is not true. ALL QUESTIONS count as one point. If you get it correct, you get a point. If you get it wrong, you don’t get a point.</p>

<p>" I think the calculation you are talking about is:</p>

<h1>Correct * 36 / Total Questions</h1>

<p>Or something like that. I don’t think that’s what they actually use though. Actually, as a matter of fact, I’ve read in 2 places there IS NO CURVE for the ACT. The scale-raw ratio is ALWAYS the same. "</p>

<p>That is again, not true. The scale-raw ratio changes basically every test… For example, sometimes -1 on the reading may be a 36. The next time you test, if it is an easy test, you might see -1 be a 34 (although very rare, it is possible). The curves correlate with test difficulty and are predetermined before everyone has tested.</p>
