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

<p>yeah i know the curve can change. but so far it sounds like people on CC had trouble with the science. i highly doubt -2 will be 32. i would trust the real act guide more than the kaplan book.</p>

<p>how many do you need to get to ensure a 30 in math?</p>

<p>@AKittka, Heh. Well, would you rather be disappointed thinking you got a higher score or elated thinking that you got a lower score? </p>

<p>I'M TRYING TO BE NICE. :P</p>

<p>for math,, up until 50 it was the easiest. but the next 10 held me for quite a while and i ended up guessing on 4 of them....no likey</p>

<p>probably 5-6 wrong will get you a 30</p>

<p>^depending on the test curve, in my act prep chart it says you could get 10 wrong and still get a 30 in some cases.</p>

<p>English- easy
Math- fairly easy
Reading- fairly easy
Science- difficult
Essay- easy</p>

<p>ok i understand that. but if you took the test today do you really think -2 will be a 32? (don't give me that 'you never know' bs lol) a typical score for -2 science is 33-35.</p>

<p>English - super easy. I might have missed one or two questions.
Math - I ran out of time...like last time. I ended up bubbling in random answers for the last seven questions. :(
Reading - easy as pie.
Science - easy for the most part. Two questions stumped me, so I guessed on them. I think I got the rest right.</p>

<p>I liked the essay. I wrote over 3 pages.</p>

<p>I agree with your curve AKittka. I was doing so well until the tough science portion arrived.</p>

<p>when can we begin discussing the test questions? i'm soo anxious :O</p>

<p>math - easy, i finished with ~10 minutes to spare somehow
writing - easy
reading - surprisingly easy, but needed more time
science - hated the physics tme passage, other than that was fine (thank you AP Bio)</p>

<p>English - Easy stuff.
Mathematics - 3 questions stumped me... but I think I guessed well for at least 2 of them.
Reading - That Khiem passage was horribly boring. Luckily the other passages were as easy as hay-hay.
Science - Easy for the first part (but it calls on actual Biology knowledge, lolwut? Did ACT break their own rules?), but the later questions were a beast.</p>

<p>I'm feeling kinda depressed from Science... x_x</p>

<p>i think it's okay now to discuss the questions. It's 9 in Hawaii, so everyone should be in the test center by now.</p>

<p>How long does it usually take for the scores to get posted online?</p>

<p>No last time around the ACT had like 3 questions that required actual knowledge of the topic in order to do, they always throw a couple in there</p>

<p>Scores should be out by Sunday/Monday via hack, Wednesday without hack</p>

<p>hack?</p>

<p>on the act website, they said they would start posting scores by June 25.</p>

<p>what were the answers for the mitosis question that required matching the cells with the phase?</p>

<p>Wait like TOMORROW Sunday? And THIS Monday/Wednesday? And how do you do this hack? And...science sucked : (</p>

<p>i'm pretty sure he meant next sunday</p>

<p>I'm glad most people thought Science was difficult, better curve and a better score for me :)</p>
