march 13th ACT

<p>Personally I thought it was incredibly easy. The science rocked, it was easy. Math was a bit tougher, English was easy, and Reading was tough (as always for me).</p>

<p>English
When it asked for who/whom, I left it as it was. They both came out to be who.
I said for the one about the Japanese dude, "During the 1920's" made most sense.
There were many rhetorical questions on this test.</p>

<p>Math
The last 10 were tough.
The even fxn I put (-a,-b) and I'm pretty confident that it's right.
The perimeter was 38.
The first area question could not be solved.
The sum of the solutions of the lines was 3.
I didn't know which answer wasn't a factor; I put x-9.
For the pie graph, I put the nat'l corp would increase and all others would decrease.
2.41 million was an answer for one.
y-x was the positive/negative answer.
I think 83 was the mean, or something like that, I don't remember.
-2/7 was an answer to the slope.
The distance of the radius for the circle was sqrt 68.
25/36 was an answer.
sqrt A/r was another.
I think another was 53.2%, it was about the pie graph question.
For the Cos one I put B, I really didn't know.</p>

<p>Reading
I put cynical for the except question.
The narrow entranceways; I put it reminded him of the jobs at other places: this looked it exactly like another answer.
The least talked about relationship was Cuba and Dominguez??
The lady that did the diva writing changed from being critical to participating.
I hate the reading so I don't remember much.</p>

<p>Science
I put it displaced 40,000 tons because the data showed 80% so I took 80% of 50,000 and it gave me my answer.
For the solutions one, for student 1 you needed to know the mass.
The diagram would look like the left side had less solution and side B had more solution.
One answer asked what would the magnetic force be if it were 0, it was 0 N.
For the planets, one was the Rho blah blah planet.
3 years was the period.</p>

<p>I will try to remember more for this test; by and by, it was much easier than the Dec 06 test. I will be very surprised if I don't hit at least 29 or 30.</p>

<p>what was the period question in science?
and um.. you did get some wrong joshrk.. sry
but u'll def. hit ur mark b.c. a lot of ppl thought that this was tough</p>

<p>You had to look at the table and you found it to be 1100 days or something and you divide it by 365 and it came out to about 3 years.</p>

<p>What did you put for the warmer and colder science question. Like if you look at the data at a period what is the temp most likely to be? I put -36.</p>

<p>The pressure vs. temp graph was D. As pressure goes down temp goes down. So you do the opposite and see that as P goes up the T is also going up.</p>

<p>Hmmm...reading was not nice at all. I'm hoping for a generous curve on that. I think I got the grandmother question wrong...definitely missed the fact that they were spanish. </p>

<p>For the temp/pressure one, it was the last graph. The one with a positive slope and closer to the x-axis because (0,0) is a point on the graph.</p>

<p>I didn't think the P/T one was E, maybe it was. I just know it was linear and it had positive slope. I didn't think any points were at (0,0).</p>

<p>What do you think the curves will be like?</p>

<p>English
1 wrong - 35
2 - 34
3 - 34
4 - 33
5 - 32
6 - 31
7 - 30
8 - 30</p>

<p>Math
1 - 35
2 - 34
3 - 34
4 - 33
5 - 32
6 - 32
7 - 31
8 - 30
9 - 30</p>

<p>Reading
Not really sure</p>

<p>Science
Not sure either, 5 wrong is probably a 30.</p>

<p>Sry, I meant that (0,0) is supposed to be on the curve. You extrapolate on the last one.</p>

<p>Hmm, maybe we are thinking of the same one...</p>

<p>On the reading, what did you put hindered phages?<br>
For one, I put the 3 guys didn't fully believe in wide spread use or something like that.
Another was they hid in cells where phages couldn't reach.</p>

<p>In the English passage about Mae Jemison, was her curiosity "about" (choice C) or "for" (choice D) astronomy, space, etc.?</p>

<p>"For" I remember that one.</p>

<p>^^ i put about</p>

<p>but i remember not being sure :(</p>

<p>it's for</p>

<p>how about those tone problems?
i remembered one on the first factory question and something for the spanish kid's section</p>

<p>The spanish kid was sad but reminiscense.</p>

<p>Why was it for?</p>

<p>I thought it was about. That's the idiomatic expression.</p>

<p>I think it's "about" also. Shoot!</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the exact context of that question?</p>

<p>it was like something about getting rid of her curiousity ____ and then it listed off like a bunch of topics. i know some of the choices were for, about, and of.</p>
