<p>again congrats....keep posting</p>
<p>i just got mine today..
comp. 30
english 30
math 27
reading 33
science 28</p>
<p>.. which may sound low to some of you geniuses but I was happy with it.. I've never really tried studying for these tests, does anyone think I could pull a 31-33 with some studying?</p>
<p>great job lauren...sure you can do better with just a little prep....congratulations...did you pay to see them online or did you get them in the mail?</p>
<p>got them in the mail... a few friends of mine did too, I was surprised they came so early! It's been barely two weeks.. maybe mail delivers fast in Ky, I don't know</p>
<p>whoa..I called today and they said that my test has not even been scored yet....</p>
<p>Paid 8 bucks last week, and they showed up TODAY. I thought they would take as long as the PSAT, but I was wrong-(like I was on the math....) 33 composite isn't bad, but when you get a 36 on the science, you think the math should be better. I am going to take them again.</p>
<p>I got mine in the mail today also.... i guess ky does deliever fast...</p>
<p>i paid for mine last week.. 31! 4 pts up from september!</p>
<p>congrats, sw33tie - that's a great increase and a <em>very</em> respectable score.</p>
<p>I just wonder do ACT questions (in reading and science) appear in chrological order; in other words, does the testmaker ask a question about first paragraph, then another about second paragraph...and so on; or, do the reading questions just jump around?</p>
<p>Well this blows...they still don't have my scores.</p>
<p>chris - I believe the line reference questions are in order, but the passage still seems to skip around some in questions. I got a 32 on the reading by actually reading the passage (at a quick pace) and then answering most questions from my memory of the passage. I finished with like 2 seconds left over so if the passages are more difficult this might not work. But I think it is easier to focus really hard and understand the passage so the questions will come naturally and take up less time. gl!
oh and snappymatt, I still don't have more scores either =(</p>
<p>i got a 35 on reading (no idea how) but what i did was i skimmed through the passage first to get an idea, then i went through the questions without looking at the answers and referred back to the passage.</p>
<p>What books did you guys use to prep for the ACT? Barrons, Kaplan, Princeton Review, or other? Good job to all that took the test!</p>
<p>AHHH! i just got my score back</p>
<p>33 Composite
33 English
34 Math
35 Reading
28 science (ewwww)</p>
<p>I might take it again (im a junior)...but seeing as that was the 4th time ive taken it, i dont know....saturday mornings are really meant for sleeping in :)</p>
<p>33 composite is a VERY VERY great score singingal - If you want to retake go for it but great job! (I only have a 29...:/</p>
<p>what is a sat to act conversion, for example, what is a 1500 on teh sat equal to on the act when colleges look?</p>
<p>i dont think its a good idea to convert between SAT and ACT... they're pretty much imo two very different tests, althought some of the topics may overlap...</p>
<p>if u really would like to know... u could just compare percentile scores, since tha'd make the most sense... however.. i dont kno wut they are.. so i cant help u there lol... sry.</p>
<hr>
<p>yea... i have to take the ACT AGAIN... the college i want to go to requires the new ACT w/ writing.. which they dont offer as a separate test... <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>i'm pretty sure you can take the act writing by itself and add it to your act test.</p>
<p>I believe it goes like this</p>
<p>ACT Score of = SAT Score of
26 = 1180
27 = 1220
28 = 1260
29 = 1300
30 = 1340
31 = 1380
32 = 1420
33 = 1460
34 = 1520
35 = 1560
36 = 1600</p>
<p>I got these numbers from the University of California website under admissions criteria. hope this helps !</p>
