June 14th ACT ****************************

Test Preparation ACT Preparation
261

<p>English: really really easy. Had 10 min. leftover, usually I have 2-3
Math: geesh. Somehow, I ran out of time. On the last 2 pages, I started having a minor panic attack and I guessed on 3-4. On all my practice tests, I consistently scored well on math. oh well!
Reading: easy. I can’t even remember what the last passage was about though.
Science: I thought it was easier than real ACT science.</p>

<p>I know that ACT claims you don’t need prior knowledge, but on this test, I don’t see how that was possible. I took Bio ~2 years ago, so I had NO idea for which picture is prophase.</p>

262

<p>i took ap chem and i dont even remember viscosity!
plzzzz throw it out [nice] ACT people!</p>

263

<p>just to be sure…viscosity is resistance to flow, right? i remember learning that in my honors chem class.</p>

264

<p>would they throw out such a question? or is that out of the question? (hah. i like it when i make word associations.)</p>

265

<p>i don’t know.. does the ACT really throw out the hard questions, just because a huge percentage of test takers didn’t get the right answer?</p>

266

<p>if they throw out a questions wouldn’t they make a 36 possible by missing one?</p>

267

<p>what were the mitosis questions? the one about prophase was the circular stuff, right? and metaphase was the picture of the rods lined up down the middle…i think</p>

268

<p>oohh ohh there was there were two physics questions that i really hated… one asked for some decimal related to TME and i totally guessed and picked .059… another answer choice was .092… maybe i got lucky? :(</p>

<p>the other was right after that. it asked about speed (i think) at points s, t, and u from slowest to fastest. i put s, u, t but never ever took a physics class so i felt so screwed</p>

269

<p>that’s what I got.</p>

270

<p>yeah you are right about descriptions mitosis prophase was picture 4, metaphase was picture 2</p>

271

<p>the one closest to the ground i think was the fastest and the on in the air was the slowest for sure!</p>

272

<p>gymfreak was there also an answer like .0596 or something?</p>

273

<p>wasn’t the answer .092 ?</p>

274

<p>could someone explain to me how you got 19 for the third side of the triangle inscribed in the circle? Please</p>

275

<p>English- Very easy
Math- Fairly Easy
Reading- 2 passages were easy and I got lost in 2 of them..
Science- Beasssssssstly bad.. ugh. </p>

<p>Oh and the viscosity problem made me wish I took physics.</p>

276

<p>the physics one was S, T, U. since s was the highest point and U was the lowest point, right?..</p>

277

<p>noo… i had no idea; i’ve never ever taken a physics course… that’s why i’m putting the question out there… one answer choice was .059 and the other was .092 and they were b and c, respectively. i dont remember the other values, but i dont recall .0596 as being one of them. the ? was 2nd to last on the physics</p>

278

<p>u was the point on the circle thing (i really didnt get why that was that way), s was the point at the top of the incline, and t was the point right where the horizontal line and the incline met</p>

<p>that one was the last physics question. i got s as the slowest, u in the middle, t as the fastest, but had no idea why bc i never took physics</p>

279

<p>i think i put .059 then</p>

280

<p>was s the point in the sir for the physic question?</p>
