June 12th ACT, Official Reading Thread

<p>Geddy that’s correct</p>

<p>i ust realized that i may have forgotten to answer one question… the one that geddyleerulez asked about :frowning: oops</p>

<p>average worker it talked of how he worked for 115 or so hours just as others average workers do</p>

<p>^ok im convinced you are right about the EDISON one.
So far i have -4. What is that equivalent to?</p>

<p>well the reading curve is quite generous compared to the others and so i suppose it would be 33-34 which is still an exceptional score</p>

<p>I put prarie dogs on peripherie warn the others but I’m really unsure about the passage as I was in a rush.</p>

<p>ok then. Thanks. This is my first time with the ACT’s (about a month ago, i didn’t even know they existed lol) with fairly moderate amounts of prep. How much would i be able to improve my reading the second time?</p>

<p>sorry can’t help you there. this was my first time taking it too. I just approached this reading section as literal as possible.</p>

<p>Guys what was the awnser about the buffalos and the prarrie dogs “following” it gave 4 words that could be awnsers. I put came after or something like that. I thought that after the buffalos left an area the prarrie dogs came in. This may be the only question taking my 36 :(</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Yup, I had the same thing. For me, I had to do 16 questions based on a passage, but my sister had 15 questions like you did. Mine was about an orange falling from a tree and hers was about some Indian tribe. I don’t think it will count towards the composite score; it’s most likely survey-related.</p>

<p>UVA - it was that they acted like them i think…idk tho…i thought either that or yours</p>

<p>UVA, it was came after. The Prarie Dog came followed the Bison/Buffalo.</p>

<p>Was the answer for the gotta get in shape one choice B? Because that’s what I put. I completely agree with what you guys are saying; I just don’t remember if I put that.</p>

<p>consolidated list anyone?</p>

<p>Consolidated list</p>

<p>Fire questions
urban development that revitalized downtown
William – most important developer
to transport people to another place (not sure about this one)
sensory effect
Literally talking about the new construction</p>

<p>Prariedog Questoins
Dogs “came after” buffalo
prarie dogs react to danger depending on situation
stayed underground for a year –question about young</p>

<p>Story teller questions
Smoke throughout store
Get in shape = he wanted to test out treats on kids</p>

<p>Edison
he wanted to be like average person
All except that he wanted to be wealthy
Scraps of paper</p>

<p>“urban development that revitalized downtown”</p>

<p>Don’t think that right. I remember something more along the lines of ritual of sorts.</p>

<p>I remember a question that asked about Edison punching the clock. I think the answer had something to do with long labor hours.</p>

<p>No, the second paragraph focused on how the people used to go to bed and the downtown turned into a “ghosttown” however with the new fire crap it was revitalized.
What about this one “to transport people to another place”. It was either that or something like take a hold on people or were those two different questions because I’m sure they could have been</p>

<p>I don’t think that the answer was “to transport people to another place” and the praire dog question about young was stay underground for a few months not a year.</p>

<p>I am almost certain that the Edison one was about the long hours like the rest of the working class. Wasn’t the question asking how he was like an American?</p>
