International ACT April 13th Discussion

<p>Any other international students that took the ACT today?</p>

<p>What'd you guys think?</p>

<p>I thought science and reading were the hardest for me, but math and English were okay I guess.</p>

<p>I'm so anxious for scores to come out...</p>

<p>what form were u?</p>

<p>I was 70R</p>

<p>i agree completely; reading and science were super hard while math and english were very easy</p>

<p>Oh I had 64B. </p>

<p>Does that mean we have different tests and questions then?</p>

<p>i’m also international and i think that i also had the 64 one.</p>

<p>Did you have a reading text about that memphis photographer? </p>

<p>Did u also think that math was easier this time?</p>

<p>yes i had that same!</p>

<p>idk about math… I did every problem and I feel fairly confident about it, but I didn’t get a lot of time to review my answers.</p>

<p>Whatd you think about science? I thought it was harder than usual…</p>

<p>You get the questions about the heart?</p>

<p>yes i got that one! i had time to finish science but i had to guess on some questions, i thought some were hard. i hope that they are generous with the raw scores.</p>

<p>one question about math:
remember the question with the 2 lines in the coordinate plane and you had to say the area of the quadrilateral OBED?
i just guessed there 20/3, didn’t know how to do it…</p>

<p>yeah i had a different test than you guys. Where are you from? </p>

<p>In my test, science was really hard along with reading. I am so angry at myself because I am fairly confident i got -0 in math and -1 in english. However, my science and reading scores (at least -6 on each) will ruin my composite.</p>

<p>I agree; science was hard. When they said “is location 2 a vein or an artery?” what did you put?</p>

<p>I didn’t get that. I got a fraction that was equal to 7.75. I didnt know how to do it either at first, but then I split it up into 2 triangles. Then I got the area for them by doing some like complicated **** idk…</p>

<p>but crap I just remembered that I forgot to add the two triangles… so Im pretty sure I got that one wrong… :(</p>

<p>i put vein, because it lead to the heart,right?</p>

<p>and the one of math where u had that formula V(t)= 4.92t^2 - 19.2t,that was my other doubt, remember your answer?</p>

<p>btw,do u know when we get our scores? does it take longer for internationals??</p>

<p>I put artery cause I thought it was going away… but my friend said the same thing as you.</p>

<p>I got 4 for that i think. you?</p>

<p>I thnik we get them the same time everyone else does? 3-8 weeks they said</p>

<p>oh then i got that one wrong I guess, didn’t have a clue about how to do it, i put 14 or so…
but i think i got the rest correctly, hope for a 33/34</p>

<p>yeah but what does that mean? i hope to get them in 3 weeks and not in 8 weeks…</p>

<p>what did u think about english? i had some trouble with the vocabulary ones(emerge,ooze for example,don’t know if u remember?)</p>

<p>well i hope for a 30+ composite</p>

<p>Ohh I just set the equation equal to 0 and solved for it. I think I made a few mistakes on math (counting the one i just mentioned) Id be happy with a 35 on math.</p>

<p>Yeah that one was weird… I forget what I put down… I thought English was okay though. </p>

<p>I didnt like reading or science at all…</p>

<p>Yeah I think itll be around 3 weeks. </p>

<p>Im hoping for a 33+. I would be really happy. Originally I wanted a 34, but I’m pretty sure that’s not happening anymore. I’m guessing a 31/32 :P</p>

<p>I Took it as well :wink: </p>

<p>I honestly don’t know, I guessed a bit and didn’t double check at all, but didn’t leave any question blank. Reading might be lowish, and math too. But i’ll See.</p>

<p>Yeah I think my science, reading and math were all a bit lower (a point or more), but it was okay I guess. I can take it again at least :)</p>

<p>math question: can anyone explain to me how that “log(x)=8x…”-thing works?</p>

<p>EDIT: reading, science and english was strangely easy, imo</p>

<p>Ah yes. I didn’t really think it through. I just graphed both equations and found the intersection :P</p>

<p>really? haha good for you</p>

<p>anyone whose status is already “tested” ?</p>

<p>nah not yet</p>

<p>Mine says “tested.”
Btw, in the english section, what did you guys put for the “glaring” feature question? I think the choices were NO CHANGE, spotlighted, striking, and mindblowing. I put striking. Wbu all?
Also in the english section, what was the answer to the question about how wall building? stone craft? is a lasting art? I think i chose the one about stones being comfortable… I’m really not sure. I think the reading was the toughest part and math the easiest.</p>
