Comment: I can get 30-33 in math, english, and reading with math being my weakest (averaging 29 or 30). I rock english and reading with 32-33. I can’t seem to break a 28 on the science though. Never studied it, never cared. So it’s a’ight.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>you can’t “study” for science anyway :P</p>

<p>Hmm, I wonder what you mean by that.</p>

<p>What I meant was, I just skipped over the science section in my PR Cracking the ACT book :)</p>

<p>I took like 8 practice tests, excluding the math section.</p>

<p>every section is 33/34 (always careless errors -___-) </p>

<p>If NO careless errors, i think I could get a solid 35, maaaaaybe 36</p>

<p>On average, how much do you think we could miss to score a 32 on a section?</p>

<p>^ e- 4
m- 5
s -3/4
r - 5</p>

<p>^wongtongtong’s estimate is spot on. I missed about 19 questions, ending up with a 32.</p>

<p>Prediction: 30
Goal: 31+
Will be satisfied with: 31
Will be done with ACts if I get a: 31
Comment: I really hope I can manage my time…</p>

<p>Prediction: 33/34
Goal: 35
Will be satisfied with: 35
Will be done with ACts if I get a: 34. or really just a 34+ on science and reading because those killed my score last time.
Comment: i’m working on speed reading! i hope that helps.</p>

<p>Took the ACT back in April, didnt study, got a 31. </p>

<p>Goal: haha 36, but thats not realistic.
Prediction: 33-34
Will be statisfied with: 34+
Will probably be done no matter what, trying to get all testing done by November.</p>

<p>What would you do if all your guesses are somehow right and you score a 36…</p>

<p>…</p>

<p>Prediction: 29-31
Goal: 32
Will be satisfied with: 31
Will be done with ACTs if I get a: 32 </p>

<p>I took the ACT in June and got a 29 but my goal at the time was 30.
I plan on actually studying this time, so hopefully I’ll do better.
Got 31 and 32 in english and reading, but math and science killed me.
Especially science, as I only got a 25 :/</p>
