Illinois State Mandated ACT Discussion 4/27/11

<h1>1 was departed (emigrate =/= immigrate)</h1>

<p>and it was “who” because whom is objective…</p>

<p>…good lord I feel like a major imbecile right now.</p>

<p>I wasn’t sure about the emigrated one either, but I chose that anyway.

Oh well.</p>

<p>ya i put she who cus i heard that u never use whom on act unless its for whom, also for the geometric system one i got lik 128/27 cus if u looked at it it multiplied by 4 on top and 3 on bottom, so like 2/1 goes to 8/3 goes to 32/9 goes to 128/27</p>

<p>I’m confused. The answer was departed…?</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure it was departed; emigrated made no sense
He departed from Czechoslovakia, right?</p>

<p>for the rdie and tie question, did u say it did accomplish the thing about cooperation, i said it didn’t cus it said like nothing about cooperation but i wasn’t sure</p>

<p>sp3344: You’re wrong on the math. It asked for the fifth term, you answered the fourth</p>

<p>I said that it did show the cooperation thing because it’s a team sport.</p>

<p>azyrk, why do you feel like am imbecile if you supposedly got it right?</p>

<p>I also said it showed the cooperation. I forgot why. it talked about all the things they had to do, like who did which stage, etc.</p>

<p>About the who/whom, she/her question. I actually think it was whom since the sentence was structured “It was she who blah blah blah” Since the subject was “it” which would make whom the object. I could easily be wrong though. Are you sure on your answer?</p>

<p>I’m 99% sure it was she who. the word after who was a verb, im pretty sure. Therefore, making “she” the subject.</p>

<p>i’m not completely sure actually…but i put who because it was acting as the subject in the phrase</p>

<p>What kind of science curve you guys expecting?</p>

<p>Well curves in general are going to be higher because all of Illinois was mandated to take this ACT. I think science curve will be good because there were a few questions that required outside knowledge.
Which student did you say was most scientific? 3 or 4?</p>

<p>I personally thought student 4 was. Also, j/w, why would illinois receive better curves? Wouldn’t that make our scores a bit unfair?</p>

<p>Was the she/who thing No Change, then?</p>

<p>And emigrate means to leave a country of origin…so it makes sense to “emigrate” from Chezch (sp) to USA…subsequently you “immigrate” TO the USA.</p>

<p>well nationally, not everyone is mandated to take the ACT, so only “motivated” kids take it.
now EVERYONE- even “unmotivated” kids- in illinois are taking it, so curves will be slightly better. and historically, this test has been curved more.</p>

<p>Theundertaken: I think it is the last one, I put 120, because there are two trapezoids. </p>

<p>That’s what I did:
[(20+40)20 /2] x 2 = 120</p>

<p>MAYBE WRONG, I dunno.</p>

<p>hmm you might be right, but i’m pretty sure throughout the passage they referred to him as an immigrant and not an “emigrant”.</p>

<p>edit: i looked it up, and I think it’s “emigrate”</p>

<p>I put 120, but I’m pretty sure it was 40+40root 3.</p>
