From 26(Feb) to 30(April)

<p>I got a 26C:25E 30M 23R 26S for the Feb ACT.</p>

<p>I just registered for the April one, which leaves like a month and a half to study. Is it possible to raise my score 4 points? The thing I'm worried about is that I was lucky for the Feb test and the curves were generous.</p>

<p>lol koreanboi…why is it that all koreans do so badly on standardized tests? (I’m korean as well)</p>

<p>I got a 27C: 25E 36M 21R 26S for the Feb ACT</p>

<p>No clue,haha. Well, month and half for the April, gotta start studying again.</p>

<p>It is possible to significantly raise your score. My daughter raised her score from a 27 in the December test (no prep) to a 31 in the February test (some prep). She’ll probably take it again in April as she thought she would do better. Part of the problem is that the math that they test is now so long ago for her as she is completing AP Calc II as a junior and they are testing geometry. Now if they would throw in some calc problems, she’d be fine.</p>

<p>I just went from a 25 in dec to a 29 in feb. with just doing the red book prep here and there… trust me its possible.</p>

<p>Thanks. It was reading that dropped me pretty hard.</p>

<p>I went from a 27 in december to a 31 in feb. 4 points. DEFINITELY POSSIBLE!!! good luck :)</p>

<p>The curves were pretty generous this time around though (except for Reading). Can we expect the same in April?</p>

<p>heretosucceed92, just curious, how do you know that the curves were generous in 3 out of the 4 subsections? My son has not gotten his scores today, but I was just wondering.</p>

<p>well, i know the curves were generous for math. my subscores were 18,16, and 15 and i got a 34 in math. and I know i missed at least four.</p>

<p>Oh I see, that’s how you find out the curve. Thanks.</p>

<p>doctor, i got 18,18,16 in my math and got a 34 too… AHHH NOT FAIRRR lol</p>

<p>^ same here (18,18,16-> 34) I raised my score from 30 in Dec to a 34 in Feb. I didn’t do any prep in Dec. and only looked through some general strategies in each section with half of a practice test. So with a little work I am sure that you can do better. The biggest thing that helped me was my confidence. Go in thinking that you own the test. lol. Good Luck.</p>

<p>^ Wow it’s not fair at all I got 18, 16, 17 and got a 35. Strange curve indeed.</p>

<p>Korean, how many times did you take the act?</p>

<p>It is fair because the subscores each have a different number of questions assigned to them, for example there are only 4 trig questions on the math part, never more/never less</p>
