I thought all of the ACT's were the same on a given test day...

<p>I mentioned this in the Math thread, but no one responded. I was looking through peoples answers to questions and I had honestly ZERO of the questions you all had. For every section. I even asked people in my test center and they didn't have the questions I had. </p>

<p>Does the ACT give out different tests on the same day now?
my form was like 70D.</p>

2

<p>I think mine was 70A (?) could be wrong though. It would be really strange for you to have a different test than all of your friends though, wouldnt it?</p>

3

<p>Yes. I only asked two kids, but still.
Like in the math my third, yes third question was an arithmatic sequence. I was like ■■■.
Or there was one with the cost of building a hotel by floor.
Or one of my science ones was something about humans causing the extinction of some north american lion.
Do any of these ring a bell?</p>

4

<p>I was unaware that the ACT had experimentals. Interesting. Weird.</p>

5

<p>Ohio is known to have different tests than the rest of the US (don’t ask me why) on the October ACT administration of each year. Did your test room have many different colored test booklets?</p>

6

<p>How did you know that ACTTester? That is really weird…</p>

7

<p>^ This was discussed before in old threads I believe.</p>

8

<p>But he talked to other people. Haha</p>

9

<p>

Huh? 10char</p>

10

<p>^My thoughts exactly…</p>

11

<p>How do you do the quotes?</p>

12

<p>^

Type that in without the asterisk. Oh and here is a thread that discusses this “phenomenon”: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/act-preparation/586702-form-68e-discussion.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/act-preparation/586702-form-68e-discussion.html&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Yes there were different colored books. If it is “experimental” the curve better be better because it was hard as hell!</p>

14

<p>I am from Ohio and I had 70E and it doesn’t match with anything I’ve seen or any friends I talked to from my test center also…did we get experimental tests? I’m confused…</p>

15

<p>Idaho and got a 70D or something. But I’m pretty sure I got different math questions than a lot of my peers. We were discussing it today and I didn’t remember any of the ones they were talking about.</p>

16

<p>I don’t know how they can do that…if the test is “supposedly” on a national curve, then there is no way an experimental test can show a fair representation of all the students in America. The bi.ch is that there is no way to contact the ACT and ask them, because it would kind of giveaway the fact that we are talking about the test</p>

17

<p>I don’t understand how it’s standardized if a portion of the test taking population are taking different tests. Anyone want to explain this to me?</p>

18

<p>I had form 70D. Passage about Battlestar Galactica, some Mexican mural painter guy, and a crazy hard science section, right?</p>

19

<p>Yes i think. I don’t remember the battlestar one but i had 70D for sure</p>

<p>Some people take it on sundays for personal (usually religous) reasons</p>
