ACT Oct 25th 2008

Yeah I took it. One more test next weekend (SAT) then I'm done till the Dec. 13th ACT. This was my first ACT and the science was really hard for me- I probably guessed on half the questions. math was OK, reading was OK, english I think I did decently on. Essay- I thought the topic didn't give you much to discuss so I probably got a 6 or 7 on that. I like the SAT much better.:lame:
 
I think I did well on everything BUT the science portion. I was seriously only 75% of the way through when the proctor said "FIVE MINUTES LEFT!" haha. It was kind of ridiculous.

I took it as well (this being my second time). I always think the reading/english is fairly easy (last time I had a near-perfect score, combined with my essay), but this time I don't believe my essay was up to par. For some reason, I ended up running out of time. I was on my second body paragraph when the proctor let us know we had five minute left, so I had to end it in sloppy fashion.

I think my math probably improved from last time (similar to how I improved on the SAT Math section), but I don't know if my composite score will improve from a 29. Oh well, a 29 is fine for me, especially coupled with my 1300 SAT.
 
I am really upset because I did the worst on the science portion. I only made it halfway through, and the questions I did answer I guessed on.
Everybody I talked to agreed that the science was ridiculously hard. I've taken practice tests with kaplan, and I breezed through them.. its too bad it didnt prepare me for the actual test.

math was so easy! and the critical reading also, but i never have enough time to finish them.
