<p>@asukumar that may be true for you or for some, but I really think we need to be humble. Accept our scores and give tips on the test to others who want our scores. Instead of chastising others of their misfortune, we need to be understanding and assist others. We are all friends here. </p>
<p>when will writing scores come? you guys think friday? or…</p>
<p>Obviously @asukumar is the same person as @Trolllololololol. But that’s the beauty of America! More opportunities. You can go to China if you really want. </p>
<p>We are very lucky to be living in America (or have the privilege to take the ACT if you are international) because in here, we get more than four (or even more) chances to take ACT in order to get the score you like, but in China, you only get one chance. If you did poorly on the test, you go to a bad college and that’s your life or wait another year and take the test again. So you guys should be grateful for the American education system that it is not as harsh as the one in China.</p>
<p>@An1100345 Don’t even bother, he’s trolling</p>
<p>@viphan Just wanted to point out how lucky we are in America. I didn’t read the posts carefully.</p>
<p>As the OP of this discussion, I hereby banish you, Trolllololololol. </p>
<p>Should I call a mod here?</p>
<p>@Bananabelle96 are you eligible for extra time on the test? I should think that if you receive accommodations at school, by all means you ought to be allowed extra time! </p>
<p>@GB1904 My counselor told me that it was too much of a hassle to try and get extra time on a standardized test. You make a good point though. I took the ACT again on 9/13 and I didn’t have as bad of a panic attack this time around as I did in April. Hopefully I improved my score a little bit, but if I didn’t I’ll definitely approach my counselor about trying to get the ball rolling on an accommodation. Who knows…maybe it’s not as much of a hassle with the ACT as it is with the SAT. </p>
<p>Son got 34.5 rounded up to 35. YAY! Never scored this high in practice tests. Usually between 33-34.
Very happy. He’s done with ACT.</p>
<p>@PaulPierce34 u mad?</p>
<p>First of all I am not trolling and I’m also not someone else. Let me rephrase what I said. In your case you are absolutely not lazy as you said, you have an anxiety disorder. I understand how frustrating it is when someone is ungrateful of what they have. However, my comment was meant towards students who don’t have any issues who are still angry that other people aren’t satisfied with their great scores. Many times in life you aren’t as sucessfull as others, either intellectually, or financially. Sometimes it certainly is luck, but most of the time it is because the person put in the work and gave up something else in their life for this. I personally spent many hours at lunch in math class with my friends even though we wanted to go out because I realized the importance of studying. I personally believe that any able-minded person can get a great score on the act with enough practice.</p>
<p>In your case, I would suggest applying for more time on the test, but I’m not sure they will classify your disability as one that requires extra time. Another option is doing the SAT instead, which gives you some extra time per question. When applying to universities, definitely mention your disability and how you overcame it to become a great student (as shown by your GPA). I’m sure the admissions committee will understand. When taking a test, always go with your first answer and go back later if you are unsure, instead of over thinking it. Also you should complete a page of problems on the test paper, THEN bubble it in on the scantron. This will give you a sense of accomplishment after each page.</p>
<p>The thing I’m trying to say is, you can be ungrateful for your parents money. You can be ungrateful for birthday presents, but you can’t be ungrateful for something you yourself made. Imagine if a famous painter made a mediocre painting. Most people on earth would wish they could make a painting as good as that, but to the painter, it is still substandard work.</p>
<p>Good luck on your admissions and I hope you end up somewhere where you are happy!</p>
<p>@asukumar You’re right. I understand where you’re coming from. The painter analogy really put it into perspective. Good luck on your admissions and I hope you end up somewhere where you are happy as well! You sound like an incredibly hard worker, which is quite admirable. Also, I apologize for my rude comment earlier. Have a nice day, congratulations on your score, and continue to work hard (even through that dang senioritis! It’s the worst, but it WILL go away (at least that is what I’ve been told!) haha). You’re going to go very far in life. </p>
<p>U guys should watch the anime move “Garden of Words” prob one of the best anime movies I have ever seen.</p>
<p>it will help you calm your nerves</p>
<p>I just noticed that the technical difficulties notice has disappeared, will there be a good chance that it will be released tomorrow you guys think? Or still Friday like they had announced?</p>
<p>they said next scores will be out friday so I don’t think so.</p>
<p>@animeswagger supposedly via twitter they have responded to those who have not gotten their scores and said some will be released tomorrow, praying mine will be one of those released scores!</p>
<p>Third time taking the test and got a 25. I have no testing anxiety or anything. I think I am just an average student honestly.
A 25 is the 79th percentile which is decent in my opinion, but I really wanted a higher score for merit scholarships. I’m going to take the SAT for the third time in October. My goodness, congrats to everyone else in this thread. Wow, I am like in the bottom tier on this site.</p>
