<p>I agree with that review of the test. Science was definitely most difficult section. Reading a couple were toss ups between two but rest were easy. Math mostly easy, 5-10 challegening ones, but I think I got a lot of them. English-easiest section ever (is the curve on this always harsh?)</p>
<p>EDIT: I'm pretty sure it was 7 for the h(x) one.</p>
<p>The question read that the square is 10 x 10. A second square (S2) formed by the lengths made by the midpoints of the square has an area of 25 (5 X 5), 1/4 the area of S1. Each successive square has an 1/4 the area of its "mother square." Thus, S3's area is 6.25, S4's 1.5625, S5's .390, etc...</p>
<p>All of these added together equal 133ish (400/3 = 133.3333).</p>
<p>Unless I'm completley full of it...someone please explain if i'm not getting it..lol</p>
<p>Wishin you all the best on the ACT...let's hope that none of us ever have to see it ever again (standardized testing=manifestation of satan, IMHO).</p>
<p>i got 7 because if you solved it it was something like 21x+14</p>
<p>English: Very Easy
Math: Very Easy
Reading: Easy
Science: Moderate
Writing: Easy</p>
<p>Did anybody else cite self-regulating markets and consumer rationalism in their essay? It's as if my MicroEcon course was a year-long class on how to write that essay...;)</p>
<p>strawberry mango: this side lengths for S2 wouldn't be five. They would be they hyptenuese (sp?) of a right triangle with legs of 5, i.e. the sq rt of 50. I think you're interpreting it wrong.</p>
<p>and what were the awnsers to the fewer/less questions in english?</p>
<p>400/3 or 200? </p>
<p>200</p>
<p>here's why</p>
<p>the sides of the smaller square are not half as large as the sides of the one it is inscribed in. the first square has sides of 10, the second square has sides of 5root(2) because the sides of the inscribed square are hypotenuses of 45-45-90 right triangles. so the first inscribed square's sides are found by finding the hypotenuse of a 45-45-90 triangle with legs of length 5. you multiply the length of the leg by root(2) to get the hypotenuse. thus the inscribed square has a side length of 5root(2), making its area 50, not 25. following this pattern, each inscribed square has an area one half that of the one preceding it, not one fourth. adding them up, it approaches 200, not 400/3.</p>
<p>I basically combined 'super-size me' and health class for my essay; it sucked, needless to say.</p>
<p>What was the one in the Latino passage about the singer being intimidating and gracious, ect., ect.</p>
<p>I said Gracious and Intimidating</p>
<p>i kinda felt like writing about the fat kid sitting in front of me...</p>
<p>something and loyal
and
something and accessible</p>
<p>for tito puente</p>
<p>ok.. the question on math that was find the median of the numbers.. am i just really stupid or were none of the answer choices the median?</p>
<p>Did anybody get four in a row on the last row of english? DJDJ I did but I don't think it was right</p>
<p>I thought the median was the middle number, so i put down 19. Can some one tell me if that is correcto?</p>
<p>inguyen: Tito Puente was "_____ and approachable." I forgot the first adjective.</p>
<p>Reading was a little harder than the practice tests, while Science was a bit easier.</p>
<p>Were we only supposed to get a 5 min break between Math and Reading? I thought it was 10.</p>
<p>EDIT: for the median question, it was 17.5, I think.</p>
<p>i did something (i forget too) and accessible</p>
<p>He was definitely the first thing (i still forget), i remember for sure. I said he was also accessible because the narrator's friend was able to get his attention and he wasn't like arrogant and walked away but instead offered words of promise.</p>
<p>on the reading there was some question with a bunch of percentages in it. it was probably easy but i couldn't find where it talked about it in the reading with the vcr's. i think i put 20%</p>
<p>did anyone get ''fewer'' as the answer to like 2 english questions?</p>
<p>also the math questions with the 'nonoverlapping' i got like 24?</p>
<p>i never remember the stupid median rules. so i just put 18. i just didnt feel right averaging 18 and 20. o well...</p>
<p>yes, but 17.5 wasn't an answe choice!</p>
