<p>i know students who smoke weed all the time and amazingly do extremely well on the ACTs... like 32,33 .. WHAT IS THIS? it's been VERY consistent... is there some science behind this??? </p>
<p>any explanations or ANECDOTES???</p>
<p>it doesn't, i know people that have smoked weed before the SAT and ACT and their scores were at least 200 pts (or 7pts) lower that they should have been getting. i know it might be hard, but you should probably cut back on the weed for a week before, because it takes 1-2 weeks to get your full thought process back. i know all this because at least 3 of my friends tried to smoke before both tests.</p>
<p>on second thought, go ahead and smoke before you take the ACT, it will set the curve lower and give all of us higher scores, and thats always good isn't it :-)</p>
<p>i dont smoke weed</p>
<p>I really hope that this is a joke...</p>
<p>i heard you get higher score while jerking off during the test.</p>
<p>Whatever it takes...</p>
<p>there are some stoners are my school who, while clean, are very very very sharp. while stoned out of my their minds they are still pretty smart. sorry bica, some ppl are just like this. the stoned kids getting 32s could probably get 36 if they werent stoned.</p>
<p>Shark_bite and bica24, come to your senses. A high ACT score will not procure an automatic admission at the top-tier colleges/universities. I personally think the essay plays a huge role for an applicant to be admitted into an elite university.</p>
<p>My $1.00.</p>
<p>Smoking marijuana will probably sharply decrease your chances from even graduating high school.</p>
<p>lol.... honestly i think smoking weed makes you smarter also. it like opens up your brain to think more broadly or something. true story: i know this jewish kid who's naturally smart and got 2190 on the SAT's, which i think was before he turned into a pothead. after he started smoking, he retook and got 2300....</p>
<p>I was being sarcastic...You have to be a fool to think a mind-altering substance will increase your test scores. Its like showing up drunk.</p>
<p>ok, two days before the ACTs. shall I try this new score improving method?</p>
<p><strong>note: COMPLETE sarcasm here</strong></p>
