<p>Just saying, but this math was the most tricky one I have taken yet ( <- only took practice tests). It may be due to the fact that my watch was taken away, but still.</p>
<p>EDIT: sorry for double post, I thought few people would’ve posted, but I guess not…</p>
<p>I wish that reading would have more generous curve this time…
36(-1) instead of 36(-0)</p>
<p>Ok, thats what I put. And yeah I also got “untangle” for the English one</p>
<p>I didn’t think math was too bad, but science was horrible…</p>
<p>Anyone know if this was like the december 2011 one which was an exact copy of another exam? Would be nice to look back on threads instead of waiting on new ones.</p>
<p>A friend of mine told me he had taken the exact December 2011 test before, but I didn’t believe him. Did they really make an exact copy? And no this wasn’t like the December 2011 one. </p>
<p>I’d compare them like this:</p>
<pre><code> Dec Today’s
</code></pre>
<p>English easy easy
Math easy Hardest I’ve ever taken
Reading Moderate easy
Science Hard moderate</p>
<p>@cheesecake AGREED! That was so CRAZY!</p>
<p>If I missed one reading question can I still get a 35/36 on reading? It won’t go down to a 34 will it?</p>
<p>It was the opposite for me.</p>
<p>Math was the hardest > English > Science > Reading</p>
<p>@inTheo , I understand this wasn’t exactly the same as the Dec. 2011 one (I took that one), but yeah the Dec. 11 one was identical (same questions) as the October 2010 one (I think?).</p>
<p>When do results come out by the way? Two weeks?</p>
<p>Cheesecakke,</p>
<p>In most cases, a -1 is a 35. In some cases it’s a 36, and in very few cases a -1 is a 34.</p>
<p>1 am on feb 27th</p>
<p>Math = Normal
Reading = Easy
English = Normal
Science = Hard (IMO 100x harder than the December one which everyone thought was impossible)</p>
<p>Argh… I usually get 34,35s on the practice tests… But I’ll probably get like a 32 on this one…</p>

<p>Wow, I didn’t think ACT would do that. Can’t you order your test booklet and practice the ones you got wrong? Then you could do much better if it were to show up again.</p>
<p>On the comedian passage, did anyone get an answer like “In a low moment of his career at a low moment, he unexpectedly found Rocky… blah blah.” I think it was A. I felt like it was the only one that made sense but it definitely said “low moment” twice…</p>
<p>@Iris, the test proctor said 5-8 weeks</p>
<p>On this particular test, what do you think a 55/60 on math would equal?</p>
<p>This really sucks. I normally get -0 or -1, but today was just tough.</p>
<p>Bringing up what was mentioned earlier, what did you guys put for the electrical resistance question on the science?
It said the resistance is directly proportional to the length.</p>
<p>I put the electrical resistance decreases because the circuit lengeth decreases as the object is being projected.</p>
<p>@Theo, I wish it was the case where it was like</p>
<p>36(-1)
35(-2~-3)
34(-4)
33(-5)</p>
<p>a.k.a. the last practice test on REAL ACT Prep latest edition.</p>
<p>Writing - I thought I did quite well on, nothing confused me
Math - Think I did well on, but I know I got at least 2 wrong, one of which the time was called just as I was erasing the answer to change it, and the other was the dice question… answered 1/4, but forgot that the desired roll could go either way, making the answer 1/4+1/4.
Reading - Did ok, but reading comprehension has always been iffy, so I’ll wait and see
Science - Holy crap that was hard! Seemed like they expected some big leaps in a lot of questions. Because of this, I ran out of time with 7 un-answered questions… Didn’t even make it to the last section. Don’t think I’ve ever had such a hard science section in my practice tests or the past 2 ACTs I’ve taken.</p>
