What did you guys think was hard?

Test Preparation ACT Preparation
1

<p>I thought math was hard--the word problems were way too long for me to read through--even though I do the best on math practice tests than any of the other subjects.</p>

<p>What did you guys think was hard?</p>

2

<p>I was brutalized on the science section like no other. Thought the rest were fairly easy.</p>

3

<p>Science man… couldnt finish it nearly in time cuz some of the questions were just ridiculous. I had to guess on some math problems as well, but the rest was pretty good.</p>

4

<p>Reading.</p>

<p>My mind was fried after reading the first passage with all it’s details.</p>

5

<p>hmm, well i would say science, the freaking mitosis!</p>

6

<p>I felt good that the ONLY thing I remembered from Freshman Bio was mitotis lol</p>

7

<p>mehhhh.</p>

<p>that science section was ultra ultra ultra buzz-killing.</p>

<p>seriously, that was the best ACT/SAT/AP testing i’ve ever been through, but the science just totally pwned me.</p>

<p>i felt on top of the world after that test, i was pretty sure i got 33-35, but now i’m starting to second guess myself, especially re-evaluating my performance in the science section.</p>

<p>blast, i wish colleges used superscore or whatever for both the ACT and SAT, because that’s going to kill my composite.</p>

<p>if i get 34-36 eng/math/read, but get a 29-30 science score, will colleges just look at the 32 comp. or is there any chance they actually care about the section scores by themselves?</p>

8

<p>well the thing is the questions are actually quite easy for me..its the time that kills me. any suggestions on how to finish in time and FAST?</p>

9

<p>Some of the math in the 40s and 50s got me. I could’ve done them but I had no time. Filled in the bubbles randomly :/. </p>

<p>I flew by the science but I think I got 1-2 wrong in each one. Not too worried though since I managed a 24 my first time with 13 wrong. There’s no way I got that many wrong this time around :D</p>

10

<p>I thought the science section was only supposed to test reasoning skills, not actual knowledge! I was quite shaky on the whole mitosis thing, and I didn’t finish the last part with the osmosis. Actually, I remember the osmosis thing from the PLAN test last year. Or am I wrong?</p>

11

<p>For a while I thought I might get 34+. That test was absolute purity until Science came along.</p>

12

<p>Science was real hard. The last 10 math problems were pretty hard too.+</p>

13

<p>I got raped on the math section. I just could not concentrate, I started freaking out during it. Had to guess on like 12 questions. If I could have calmed down it would have been so much better. Wasted like 10 minutes trying to get it together.</p>

14

<p>I also screwed up on the writing section. I forgot my introduction!!! I mentally thought of it but i forgot to write it on the paper!!! Noticed right after I finished my essay. It was horrible and the rest of my essay was so good I was thinking a 11-12 score :-(.</p>

15

<p>Math, for some reason, I was 10 mins. ahead of time by the 30th question(if you count a min. a question) but at the end, I ALMOST ran out of time…actually, I had to super fast guess on some of them, although I was pretty sure about them. </p>

<p>Science, anything non related to biology. I just took AP bio course so it helped a lot but physics just killed me. and I hate it when I miss a question that I knew I should’ve gotten right(it was a bio question btw)</p>

16

<p>i LOVED the math this time.
i only guessed on ONE question.
for every other question i calculated an answer that was one of the choices.
SO happy</p>

17

<p>I was so happy after the first 3 sections; I was thinking I might actually get a 34 or 35 composite.</p>

<p>And then the science kicked my ass, so I’ll probably only get a 31-32. :(</p>

18

<p>Math was beautiful this time around <3</p>

<p>The science was way harder than I expected ._.</p>

<p>And highhopes: I’d kill for a 31-32 >.></p>

19

<p>science had it’s moments… but i probably got my usual (either a 31 or a 33)
math was pretty easy except for 1 or 2 questions, and i got those right (36)
english was easy as usual (35-36)
reading was easy for me for a change (31-34)</p>

<p>i’m guessing anywhere from a 33 to a 35</p>

<p>preferably at least a 34 b/c i got a 34 last time in April</p>

20

<p>The science called for so much previous information and I couldn’t remember much from classes I took as far back as 8th grade and freshman year. I probably missed 6 or 7 on science, boo. :frowning: I was hoping for a 34 but I may be condemned to a 31 at this point.</p>
