***OCTOBER 2015 ACT DISCUSSION THREAD***

English- it was okay…It was definitely harder than September’s…I remember second guessing a lot of my answers

Math-hard, but a little easier than September’s, finished in time but the last 10 were pretty brutal

Reading-easy

Science-easier than September’s, finished all of it! :slight_smile:

Did anyone else think the english was sorta hard?

@deeeznuts Same I thought Reading was easier and I didnt even study for it (havent for a month)!

Never took the ACT before but from the doing all these practice exams, I feel like English is harder, math is harder, reading is easier and science is easier. Just a question tho, how much does the essay count in terms of college application compared to the composite? I feel like I failed the essay…

@jewlsfi I was worried I was the only one getting patterns in science. I had quite a few patterns on the science section. On the English question I put however.

@reppincollege1 I put perceptive.

What’s the curve in Reading for 36-30?

^i remember the question but it was straightforward, you probably answered it correctly.

this test was way easier than the september one. Except the english question with the horticuture. and the math was a breeze. Reading was a lot better except the last one, it was lowkey difficult to keep up since everything sounds the same. Science was hard but I always finish it with 5 minutes left over.

33 in September, hoping for a 32-34 on this one, and if my reading improves, my superscore could be 34-35…pls ACT take it easy on us senior.

Can’t wait sooo much

how was the essay for you guys? I thought it was straightforward, but I ran out of time.

The essay was the only thing I feel confident on. I filled up all four pages we were allotted. I don’t know how it’s graded now though because the essay was changed right?

Math-really easy
English-alright
Science-pretty darn easy
Reading-horrible, had to randomly fill out like 15 because I ran out of time. Whatever, I got a 30 last time and I can superscore at most schools

??? Are these all right

It was actually 4 for the log question @mach809. We might be talking bout different ones idk

I wanted to fight it so badly, but the Math section suplexed me and threw me out of the ring. Even as I tried to stand back up, it beat me with a metal chair. I totally murdered the Reading and Writing sections, though :wink: And I did exponentially better on the Science, this time around. Hoping for a 30.

How many pages did you guys write for the essay? I only filled up 2.25 lol

I thought the essay was OK, not my favorite topic. My examples included Donald Trump, McDonalds Breakfast, and the ACT itself Hahha. :stuck_out_tongue:

damn…sorry guys haha i guess I’m not the most reliable source

Science was so easy! I am hoping that I increased from my first time, I got a 28, hoping for a 30-32.
Reading was okay I think but I was VERY tired at this time and I am not sure. I honestly didn’t even care about the section though because I already got a 32 the first time.
Math was okay I guess, seemed kinda hard but it is not my best subject, hoping for a 29.
English, well I have no idea… Any thoughts?

@deeznuts O.O What was your essay topic?
