Official ACT June 11th thread

<p>and why was the narrator's sister a desert? or maybe it was, what did "desert" imply in her case?</p>

<p>I put "Were dinosaurs endotherms or ectotherms?", Grumpy.</p>

<p>That's what I put</p>

<p>She was lonely...at least what I put</p>

<p>Question : is there any hope of 1 wrong being a 36 on the math...has it ever happened?</p>

<p>I put it implied that she suffered from either aloneness, or isolation, dont remember which</p>

<p>yes thats what i put too :) it just seemed a little too simple...</p>

<p>With the Betty passage:</p>

<p>What was the answer to the question that had the choice about them both wanting to be accepted or something?</p>

<p>Remember, ACT likes simple explanations... Don't ever try to read too much into the answer choices or you will die!</p>

<p>Is there any hope 10 wrong will be a 35? haha :D</p>

<p>Ivy: Dont remember that question... I think that was an answer though, they had that in common</p>

</p>

<p>I was unsure on that one. The question was "What main point does the author convey"</p>

<p>I was stuck between the "both wanted accepted" and "rejection is common in high school"... I went with both wanting acceptance.</p>

<p>Yeah, that's what I wrote shahein.</p>

<p>i said wanting acceptance too</p>

<p>For the Jazz Music passage in English, what was the answer to the question: "If the author had deleted the preceeding sentence (The Vanguard (sp) is an underground Jazz Club blah blah blah)?" I think I put "It would lose information describing the setting blah blah". is that right?</p>

<p>I put they both wanted acceptance as well, it was all about him understanding his sister, and that is what he came to understand.</p>

<p>I thought the ACT was extremely easy.</p>

<p>I really didn't care that much about it, so I felt a lot more relaxed than I did the time when I took SAT and SATII.</p>

<p>On the science part I ran out of time. I was breezing through the first questions, then I got to this problem about Einstein or something, and wasted like 20 minutes there. By the time I got to last set of problems (which was really easy) the time ran out, so I filled random ovals.</p>

<p>I thought the Math was reeeallly easy. English was a gazillion times better than the SAT writing, and the reading was better than the SAT CR. I think just the fact that I wasn't stressed about it made me do a lot better.</p>

<p>The AC wasn't working in the place where I took the ACT. I was soooo hot. By the time I had to write the essay, I was like ***. So I don't think I did that good of a job at the essay.</p>

<p>P.S. How many of you are paying the $8 and getting your scores early? (next Tuesday I believe)</p>

<p>I think that was right... I really don't remember the english passage stuff very well though. Probably because I don't like english very much!</p>

<p>TSA: That is what I put as well</p>

<h2>I said something that it was important. I mean, when you looked two sentences down, it would make no sense without the club's reference; the lines of pictures on the wall and what not.</h2>

<p>TSA- I wrote division.</p>

<p>For the Grandma/Tomato passage, what did you replace for "wedge"?
-Division
-Intervention
-...</p>

<p>I put division.</p>
