September ACT-POST your Predictions and Thoughts!

<p>OMG THE MATH SECTION
am I the only one who thought so?
well, it wasnt that hard as it was time consuming. I had 3 or 4 questions left at the end that I had to guess on =/
but for the other sections, I literally thought that I aced them. The reading and science sections were easier than I had ever seen them, and the english section, was, as usual, incredibly elementary
oh, and patricklin27 the answer was a lot - alot isnt a word</p>

<p>londonx105, every ACT test is curved to 'standardize' the tests. One test might allow you to get one wrong and still get a 36 subscore, while others might require perfect answers for a 36 subscore. This accounts for the difficulty of the test. Generally, the easier the ACT, the harsher the curve; the harder the ACT, the more lenient the curve.</p>

<p>The curves are decided based on the raw scores of the test takers. After analyzing all the tests, they set the ACT curve to determine what is fair.</p>

<p>OK thanks so much!
I think I go 30+ on Math & English..
Reading..28+ hopefully...easy but kinda got distracted.
also science i sorta bombed..1/2 1/2...either knew a question or didnt...can i still get a 30+ composite???</p>

<p>I also put 108 degrees...i almost f'd that one up too. i couldn't read my handwriting and used 300 instead of 360..thank god i double checked it</p>

<p>oh yeah i have to thank my iPhone for the 'a lot' problem everytime i put alot in a text, it wouldn't pop up</p>

<p>Thank you apple!</p>

<p>bleh that math section omg....</p>

<p>i know i got 30+ in the other sections but the math :C </p>

<p>ive gotten 3 29s b4 this ACT i cant afford another 29 CUZ OF FREAKING MATH</p>

<p>never had a problem on ACT math either that section was a curve ball. im praying right now that the curve was nice on the math section :C</p>

<p>does anyone remember the reading question where it asked how the 11th paragraph was different than the 12th and then all the answer choices were time periods? what did u guys get for that?</p>

<p>was it like 2002 and why they put that date?</p>

<p>Barrack, what question are you talking about? Which passage? I answered every question and didn't really guess, hope I didn't happen to miss one.</p>

<p>no but what did u get for that?</p>

<p>im talking about the reading question on the passage where the brother doesnt like gossip...there was that question about what time does the 12th paragraph take place or something</p>

<p>um itwas that te 11th paragraph was one evening and the 12th para was over a course of several years</p>

<p>hmmm i wanna say i put a period of several years in the past...does that sound right?</p>

<p>also was it one evening or one afternoon?</p>

<p>I think I put one afternoon... another option was one evening? uh oh. lol</p>

<p>And the answer was a few years in the past. Definitely. Choice A I think.</p>

<p>English: Easy...thinking somewhere around 31-33</p>

<p>Reading: omfg....so much easier than usual THANK YOU ACT 34</p>

<p>Math: omfg *** ACT I hate you!!!!! I don't even want to predict how this will bring down my composite</p>

<p>Science: I actually thought it was as easy as Reading, probably bc of some apbio crossover terms. 33</p>

<p>but my essay definitely came out a bit strange.</p>

<p>i said one evening
wait
i feel like those were two different questions though....</p>

<p>Questions:
1) 7up and doctor pepper = 10mg/250ml per?
2) The venn diagram one, with fb, bb, tf. What was the answer?
3) paino reading, what was the author purpose in saying the "why would I go into the store"
4) what were the 3 rose question answers.
5) science, what was the star questions along the cental line, was it star T?</p>

<p>barrack yes thats the correct answer...
and sorry i confsed u guys..it was aftenoon..but u get the point..basically one day.</p>

<p>omg that rose bush question set was hard..it sucked i had nearly verytrhing else in math BUT those questions.</p>

<p>7 Up was 10mg/250ml, I think. That is what I put.
The venn diagram one was 55....if memory serves me right, not sure though.
He would go into the store.... I dno't remember why exactly -- some options and I will remember.
Rose bush.... the consensus seems to be 27 (yay)
I did get star T for one answer, not sure which though.</p>

<p>no i think it was why Luc worked there... or something like he wanted to work with 53 pianos... i dont remember really. </p>

<p>and what did you put as Luc's opinion? Mozart?</p>
