What does everybody think the curves will be for the October ACT?

<p>What do you all think you can miss for each section?</p>

<p>i hope they are nice lol</p>

<p>english and reading i think were manageable.
math and science were really hard for me</p>

<p>i didnt know they curved grades</p>

<p>yea, math and english and even reading-if you read fast enough were all very easy</p>

<p>Science, was extremely difficult. I d imagine that there is some sort of “curve”</p>

<p>English and math were really easy. Reading was average and science was a little harder than usual. Maybe a +1 curve on science? I doubt it though. And was -1 on Math ever a 36?</p>

<p>^ Yes, there have been instances where -1 has been a 36 on Math, Reading and Science, not all on the same tests, in the past but not English (at least on tests after 2003).</p>

<p>^ Thanks! I highly doubt that -1 will be a 36, but at least it’s not the inevitable. I never saw -1 = 36 on the red book or some of the official practice tests, so that’s why I’ll be pessimistic for now lol.</p>

<p>^ It’s actually not that uncommon. The most recent ACT administration I can think of where -1 in Math was a 36 is the June 10 ACT. If the October Math section was unusually difficult, it might have -1= 36 as well.</p>

<p>From what it looks like, today’s Math seems to be average. Well, I guess I’ll see what in happens in a few weeks.</p>

<p>english and math were easy for me
reading was about average
science was really hard</p>

<p>Yeah I felt the same way about the difficulties of each section as well.</p>

<p>I think English was probably easier than usual. Im really hoping math was harder than usual because i didnt get to finish. It seems reading was average but again i didnt finish. Im glad science was harder because I, surprise surprise, didnt finish…</p>

<p>I really have to work on timing, and pray for super good curves.</p>

<p>English: Moderate, not that hard but I bombed my essay :confused: (Probably no curve ugh but hoping for one!)
Reading: Hoping for a +1 curve :X
Math: HOPING FOR A CURVE!!! Wish it was like +5… >_>
Science: Definitely definitely seriously in need of a curve… Maybe like +10?</p>

<p>Realistically what do you think of these curves: (This is where you calc ur score then subtract or add points)
English -1
Math +2
Reading +1?
Science +2</p>

<p>English will prob be 0, Math 0, Reading 0/+1, Science 0</p>

<p>I agree with fisawalab.</p>

<p>Science 0? I thought this one was harder than usual? </p>

<p>!!! Why would reading be +1, I thought it was easier. </p>

<p>But yeah, English: 0 Math: 0 Reading: 0 Science: +1?</p>

<p>english math and science 0, reading +1</p>

<p>why would science be 0 but reading 1? That makes no sense considering reading was very easy, but science was extremely difficult compared to previous tests?</p>
