October 25, 2008 ACT Discussion- Science

<p>sk8rbro posted a description earlier: "what about the one towards the end of the electricity section where it asked about what was closest to 11.8khz/6.5something and 13.8khz/something and it had choices like 11, 12, 13, 14".</p>

<p>It confused the hell out of me.</p>

<p>^I vaguely remember that. I don't remember the question or my reasoning but I believe I chose 14</p>

<p>I remember that. It's like the stupid graph and stuff. I think I put 8.</p>

<p>i think 13? still don't remember though
was it the one about having a magnetic field and then removing it? maybe that was from a different passage actually.
i'm fully confused now haha</p>

<p>was one answer between .75 and .94?</p>

<p>Science kills me.
I remember that question that everyone's talking about. It was the thing about photons, I'm pretty sure, not the magnetic fields. Don't remember what I put, though.</p>

<p>If I get like a 27 in Science I'm going to freak. I'm sure I got 34+ in everything else but Science was **** this time around.</p>

<p>I think I put 14 also for the f^14 one (it was about photons). Either that or 13. I'm almost certain I put D down so whatever was D.</p>

<p>AHHHHHHHH I put dec/inc because I was looking at syringe two......... that's why I was sort of confused....</p>

<p>So much for a 36 in this section <_<</p>

<p>Now I'm probably down to a 34/35</p>

<p>CRAP! I don't think I got my 36 :(</p>

<p>i put 11 for that one because if you guys look at the graph, it corresponds closest to Calcium, which had like 11 frequency or something</p>

<p>on the equation one i was confused it said for 1 liter of gas A, there had to be 2 liters of gas b, and they formed one liter of gas C...so i put NO + 2O2-->NO2
..im guessing this is the stupid people answer then?i know it doesn't balance but....ha</p>

<p>I HATE SCIENCE. i put 8 for one of those with the graph w/ the 4 elements. it was right between two elements.</p>

<p>I remember now! I put eight. It was between Calcium, which was six something and some other thing, which was 8.9 something.
I don't remember a number that was like, eleven or thirteen. Are people talking about two different questions?</p>

<p>8 is right?! :D</p>

<p>possibly. the 8 one took some reasoning but it all made sense when i picked it.</p>

<p>I agree with naz1209. I was about 95% sure when I picked it.</p>

<p>What was the answer to the one on the last passage that asked which one had the highest frequency (frequency was in italics). I had run out of time so I just said the one with the highest period, but now that I think about it I guess it would be the one with the lowest period?</p>

<p>According to my December test, this is the breakdown for the scores. Note that this is a rough approximation because all curves are different.
-7 is around a 28
-6 is around a 29
-5 is around a 30
-4 is around a 32
-3 is around a 33
-2 is around a 34
-1 is around a 35</p>

<p>highest frequency was lowest p value, i think?</p>

<p>the one in the first passage, which cross had 50% of the phenotypes? it seems like it should've been the third one, but i can remember reading that one a couple of times.</p>
