<p>If your writing prompt is should students be allowed to graduate early, you are at the right form.</p>

<p>I took ACT for the first time, and comparing to the Red book, english is a bit harder, math is 36, reading is hard (the prose fiction), and science is relatively easily except the thunderclouds.</p>

<p>Some questions for English:
For first question, is the answer: (period). That was fine with me.
Basically I chose the one where you separate the sentences? Is that right?</p>

<p>Another is oozing " " sth
I chose through. Or is it delete the portion? </p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>As far as I remember, I chose “period” and “through” as well.</p>

3

<p>anyone else had Form 64D?</p>

<p>Nope, sorry.
Guys, some answers in the math section were strange… For example when we had one angle and one side, schearching for another side (in a right triangle), the answer was cos30º * 10 = 8.66, but 8.66 was not proposed as an answer… There was 5*sqrt(3) which is approx. 8.66</p>

<p>Yes. In fact, you don’t need to have a calculator on the ACT and every question can be solved without one. In that question, you should use the property of the 30,60,90 triangle - its sides are x:xsqrt(3):2x. That’s why they put 5sqrt(3) there.</p>

6

<p>Guys, for the question about the inscribed angle, was the sum of the two angles 45 degrees? </p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>

7

<p>Can’t remember, sorry</p>

8

<p>What questions do you remember from the test mate (just asking to see if we had the same paper, as we might have different forms depending on the country we’re from)?</p>

<p>Guys, do all international students do the same test, as my test looks like the one that was taken in the US :S</p>

<p>Just to clarify, what was the essay question you guys got?</p>
