Official June 10th ACT Discussion

<p>19 for the median...I'm positive of that.</p>

<p>It's a fifteen minute break b/w Math and Reading.</p>

<p>Did anyone else think there was an error on the English section? THe waiter was behaving ____ and the answer that "fit" was rude (the choices were like a) No change b) rude c) rude and impolite d) in a rude and blahblah manner or something and only b is short and to the point) but technically isn't it supposed to be rudely?</p>

<p>19 was the answer the median question</p>

<p>Do you or do you not put a comma before "but" :(</p>

<p>edit: before I forget, this was question 31 or something, and then it happened again later in the section!</p>

<p>answer was ''rude''</p>

<p>what was the answer to the first english question???? Was it stumbled against (B) or D?</p>

<p>yeahh i see it now ziggman, thanks.</p>

<p>i appreciate it!</p>

<p>I put "stumbled against..." The others didn't make much sense to me.</p>

<p>Damn. We only got a 5 min. break.</p>

<p>anonymous haha yeah i was wondering that too because i didn't put a comma</p>

<p>asceratin and verify was the answer</p>

<p>yeah, does anyone know if there was supposed to be a comma before that one english question with the waiter</p>

<p>I put happened upon for the first english question but I thought the whole question was kind of stupid.</p>

<p>yeah dude i had the same problem.... it happened twice!</p>

<p>comma before stuff like but and yet commenting 2 different adjectives?</p>

<p>twenty- are you 99% sure that stumbled against was the correct answer?? Because if so im screwd because that's what i had at first but then I changed it to D</p>

<p>I agree SEantor Noodles. THey put adjective in place of an adverb. I hated the science and reading sections cuz i didnt finish..........</p>

<p>I put 2 for the prime number question. Because they mentioned something about one of them being a positive prime. 2 is the only positive prime number. </p>

<p>In the Reading, I kept it at frozen.</p>

<p>What did he "passed" the concert mean? At glance you would assume it meant that he didn't attend. But he obviously did, because he talked to the guy. So I felt the meaning was, he passed through the crowd to reach Tito. I do not think that this question was fair. This isn't an idiom, or standard english usage. They shouldn't test on slang, when there are no clear context clues to determine the meaning. I probably got the question right, by process of elimination, but I'm angry because I still had to go back and overanalyze between two possible answer choices.</p>

<p>it was definitely happened upon... Other phrases had multiple words with the same meaning ... too wordy.</p>

<p>The answer was stumbled up against... you don't need both up and against.</p>

<p>One thing ACT stresses so much is conciseness.</p>

<p>I'm certain that it was happened upon</p>

<p>I'm 100% sure it was ascertain and verify.....</p>

<p>the answer about the gold thingie was "happened upon." its idiomatic.</p>

<p>i thought that one science question about his errors was that he never fully developed a system for like tracking the wind or whatever. it said it plainly in the passage but i almost put that thing about the night too. </p>

<p>the square was 200. theres a therorem. 100+50+25+12.5+6.25+3.125...</p>

<p>what was the thing about what the E1 ecoli couldnt do?
and what was the thing about if you remove "from her friends"</p>

<p>yeah the waiter one with the "small but [something" I was torn between comma and no comma.</p>

<p>"We only got a 5 min. break"</p>

<p>We got a 10 min. break, but it kind of set me off a bit, because I thought we were going to have fifteen minutes.</p>
