The Official February 10th ACT Thread

<p>i cant remember the letters of the last three math quesitons, only the actual problems.. i do remember those being kind of easy for being at the end though.</p>

<p>nope i don't remember any</p>

<p>anyone remember the answer to the math question wehre I, II, III were given. i ended up having to do a complete guess on this because of time and gettin stuck on another problem. i put H...did i get lucky?</p>

<p>what did everyone put for the telephone one where it asked how long they had to talk for the prices to be equal, I didn't think any of the answers worked.
also, on english, what did everyone get for the one that asked about being caught by a fisherman?</p>

<p>for the english one, i said yes. after that sentence it then described a fish swimming really fast, giving the impression of it trying to escape.
the telephone one was 11. im assuming u thought it was 10..i did too. when i then remembered was that 10 was teh amount of minutes in addition to the first one. 10+1=11</p>

<p>Yeah, I put 11 on the telephone also. For the fisherman question, I chose to include it, but I can't remember which of the two "Yes; ..." answers I chose.</p>

<p>i think the '"yes" i chose had something to do with it relating to the next sentence/remainder of the paragraph</p>

<p>what about the goosebump one? i thought you could include it because it talked about cold in the next sentence.</p>

<p>no i definitely dont think that the fisherman question was "yes" because the essay was describing the incredible feeling that the swimmer embraces when snorkeling--not about being scared to be caught by anything.</p>

<p>i agree for the fisherman one. i put yes because it limited the freedom</p>

<p>pall, which question is "i put yes because it limited the freedom" referring to?</p>

<p>i thought that one was easy. The answer was "no" because the passage was about a person who was once fearful of the water, yet embraced the beauty of the underwater world--so there's no way that "-being caught by a fisherman" should have been added b/c at that point the author was describing how she felt free like a fish. to be caught obviously contradicts the author's message that she felt free.</p>

<p>haha sorry, i actually meant that i put no since it limited the freedom</p>

<p>sorry for not clarifying, i meant the fisherman one</p>

<p>what did you guys get for the third to the last math question? it was about finding the function that contained the points (-3, 0), (0,0), and (6,0)--i dont remember the choices but i put H.</p>

<p>On the goosebump one I put yes for the same reason pall said.</p>

<p>On that math problem, I don't remember the letter of the answer, but I solved it by expanding x(x+3)(x-6) = 0.</p>

<p>oh its fine, just got a little confused. i agree with the sense of freedom..i chose yes (not the one about being afraid/chased) because the following sentence(s) described the same actions a fish goes through (fast swimming, gliding through seaweed etc) when avoiding being caught. opposite of being caught=freedom...just my train of thought...</p>

<p>i knew it was xcubed for x to be positive and have three points on y=0, i just plugged the xcubed equaitons into my calculator. only one of them worked. i want to say it was the last one</p>

<p>i was really unsure about the the fisherman and goosebumps ones, but i said no (it restricts freedom) for the fisherman and i remember saying yes for the goosebumps one...</p>

<p>english: grammar was easy, but the style questions were harder than october
math: easy, but way too many word problems toward the end
reading: hard- i didn't come close to finishing.
science: easy, with the exception of the dualing scientists, which i saved for last. we happened to be learning about RNA replication right now in ap biology, so the sixth section was incredibly easy!</p>
