October 2010 ACT Science Thread

<p>^ Ok, thanks. :)</p>

<p>lol why does it matter?</p>

<p>yea y does it matter im curious</p>

<p>^ It doesn’t; I was just curious as to how ACT makes its numbers and codes. Continue discussing.</p>

<p>Mine was 70A as well.</p>

<p>I just switched off and blankly stared at the data for 5 minutes after punishing the other 3 sections, then finally got to work but had to guess some. Not feeling very good about this, have a weird feeling it is gonna kill my composite.</p>

<p>SCI was the worst for me. :(</p>

<p>The distance between the cars was increasing in trial 5 rite?</p>

<p>^ thats what I put I think</p>

<p>i literally had a panic attack during this section. the car problem got me so confused and i never even had time to read the last section which i think i couldve actually done something. i hope my other sections can make up for this…</p>

<p>I’ve never finished the science section, and it’s always been my lowest subscore by 3 points. This time I thought it was insanely easy and finished with 6 minutes to spare. I’m hoping this will bring my composite up at least one point.</p>

<p>I had a panic attack too, a lot of the data just didn’t make any since to me… It’s a shame because I probably had a 33+ in english, 33+ in math, 30+ in reading, and like 20’s in science…</p>

<p>I totally agree, this was the third time I’ve taken the real ACT and I have had many many science practice tests and this was by far the hardest test out of all.
The car one was total crap, no way you had time to interpret that table of insanity, I don’t even remember what the last section was about.</p>

<p>Also, my form was 70A aswell and I put that they were increasing on experiment 5 as well.</p>

<p>what about the homozygous question (learned that word in 9th grade bio but now i hav no clue *** it means) i put 0%</p>

<p>yeah 0% is correct. homozygous recessive =rrpp</p>

<p>i totally failed. this was very difficult. what was the one where the voltage was 10 instead of 4? what would the volage have been then?</p>

<p>btw, i think science was easy, bar the car section, which was easy but hard to understand</p>

<p>well i totally got that question wrong…</p>

<p>nritya, voltage was 10</p>

<p>the first 3 sections were basically easy…i have taken many science sections and did well on the science section the first time i took the act. but when i got to the car section, i have never been so panicked on a test in a long time. i bet it was easy, just the way they displayed the data and described it made it so confusing.</p>
