October 2014 ACT discussion thread

<p>Im somewhat confident about math and english. Reading and science teeter on whether I finish or not. I have never practiced the essay but I think I can write a good one. </p>

<p>@scarlettlovesivy Yep cant wait to debate even more questions with u for the next couple weeks</p>

<p>My reading and science scores fluctuate sooo much but i usually score 33+ on english and math</p>

<p>@DAIMYO LOL word, our lives look amazing for the next couple of weeks yay for speculations</p>

<p>@jellybae EXACT position here</p>

<p>Can we do the ACT essay the same way as the SAT essay? </p>

<p>@austin23‌ my. problem. exactly. lately my reading scores have been consistent 34s but science is everywhere. From 35 to 30 to 28 to 33 i just have no idea</p>

<p>Ive never done a practice essay lol idk how they even work</p>

<p>@Jellybae‌
For reading practice tests, i can usually answer almost all the questions correctly but i usually go over the time by about 2 minutes. Luckily on test day my nervousness usually works to my advantage and i subconsciously work quicker. For science, my score usually depends on the passage topics. If they’re mostly physics related i do well, but i am not too familiar with chemistry and biology so those ones are a bit tougher</p>

<p>guys i heard that the ACT now has a comparing passage part in the reading, so do those 2 count as 2 of the 4 reading types or does that make it 5 reading passages</p>

<p>5 passages but the comparing passage has only 10 questions</p>

<p>hat’s still pretty bad :(( </p>

<p>They’re not that hard. The first four questions ask only about the 1st passage. The second four ask about only the 2nd passage. And the last two questions ask about how the 2 passages compare/contrast. Also the combined length of the two readings is about the same as a regular passage</p>

<p>ohhhhhh okay that makes me feel better. thanks!</p>

<p>in fact, that could possibly be easier than regular passages</p>

<p>lol guys! make sure you get a good night’s rest. good luck to everyone!!! </p>

<p>Good Luck everyone! :slight_smile: Bang it out</p>

<p>I forgot my graphing calculator at school… :(( My school better be open in the morning…</p>

<p>I’m desperately praying for my math score to go up. </p>

<p>Did anyone have form 70B? If they did how was its difficulty?</p>
