The Pessimistic Failures Club

<p>Who else hates their September score...</p>

<p>If you didn’t do well I wouldn’t say that “pessimistic” is the right word haha.</p>

<p>I hate my 34. It’s not a bad score, but I wanted to get a 35 my first time around. Reading screwed me over. :(</p>

<p>I honestly should be the only one that can be deemed a “failure”. 27 ftl. It’s better than a 26, but a 27? I wanted at least a 29. -.-</p>

<p>I got a 29 but I was hoping for a 30+
I didn’t really study for it and I didn’t take any prep classes so I’m definitely retaking it.</p>

<p>-raises hand- MEE!!!</p>

<p>Me too!!!</p>

<p>Yaay! I fail fail!</p>

<p>^forreal ACTTester? You’re upset with a 34? So I’m assuming you’re one of those kids who sits in his/her room all day studying and will bang his/her head against the wall if he/she get’s less than a 100 on every test?</p>

<p>Get a life. Seriously.</p>

<p>i destroyed the science section with a 24, my other scores were alright for a first timer. idk if i should retake it.</p>

<p>most def…</p>

<p>I got a 29 in June and was pretty mad that I didn’t get at least a 30.
So I signed up for September and studied for it, aiming for at least a 31.
A couple days before the test date, I came down with an illness.
Not sure what it was, but it lasted a week.
Needless to say, I felt like crap when I took the test.
Got my scores yesterday…and I got a 27.
■■■.
I signed up for October, so hopefully I won’t be sick…</p>

<p>Guys who wants leadership positions in this club!!!?!?!??!!</p>

<p>I took the September ACT and my score dropped from when I took it in March. In March I got a 30 composite and in September I dropped to a 27 composite. My scores were sent to some of my schools because I expected to raise a point or two. I now realize that that was not a good move. My worry is that I will send my score from March to my schools and they will notice that I dropped and will count that against me. So now I must decide whether to register for the October ACT or not. I also have to worry about school work because I am taking four AP classes, plus advanced classes and on top of that I have to worry about college applications. But I must register by October 1st at the latest. Should I instead wait until December because I would have more time to study? How would that affect me if I did that? Most of my school’s deadlines are in January. If did take it again I need tips for not getting stressed the night before because I think that was what messed with me on the September ACT. Also, what are good strategies for studying if I do decide to take it again? I would appreciate any help! I’m so mad that I dropped, I completely stressed the night before and it seriously messed with me during the test I guess…</p>

<p>

Wow, *** do you know about me? Just because you got a low score gives you the right to run off your s**** mouth? ■■■■ scrub.</p>

<p>Dude ACTTester, we are in exactly the same pos. 34, reading screwed me over. My other scores were 36 math 36 science 35 English i’m not gonna post reading lol</p>

<p>^ Yeah, I know man. ACT really screwed us over this time with the ambiguous questions and very harsh curve for Reading (-1=34). :(</p>

<p>Holy balls that was the curve? i honestly don’t feel as bad with that kind of curve</p>

<p>^ I think it was. We’re not 100% sure but absolutely no one has posted a 35 in Reading so that’s what it seems it was.</p>

<p>Almost as bad as my first B, my second 32 after i was confident i 34+'ed.</p>

<p>Really been bummed since is saw my scores. couldnt even sleep at all last night</p>
