View Full Version : Act
what'd you guys think?
i thought the math and english were really easy, didn't really have enough time on the reading and the science was pretty difficult.

math was so damn hard, i had some good guesses tho cuz after i asked some smart people and they said those were the answers they got.
English was easy.
reading was easy after first passage.
Science and reasoning was the easiest
but overall the test was hard.

I did not take the most recent ACT, but heard it was easier than the previous one. The last one had some real tough reading. English was challenging, too. What was the writing prompt this time?

You can't really look at easier or harder when comparing scores of one ACT to the other. One could be easier or harder overall but it doesn't reflect in the score as the test scores are in a normal distribution and your competing against others that took the test not truly number right or wrong.

yeah i know what ur saying, i got this class i go to where i take a practice one each week and i ended up getting a 28 composite on the latest practice one, but on the real one i dont think i got higher than a 24...the newer ones are suppose to be harder though, thats just how it is.

yeah i talked to a friend who takes a class and thought it was harder than the practices.
And i really dont think one section is really harder than the others, its just what you are good at. Like many people think reading is hardest, where i did best on reading

the english and math sections were easy (to me) but the science was pretty tough and the reading, oh the reading... did anyone else have a section on liberals or something like that? anyway i spent like 20 mins on that and only had 10 mins for the last 2 passages. overall i think it was harder than the practice one, last years i think, that i took (which i got a 31 on).

I hear the ACT classes are overrated. My friend took it, got a 17 on his ACT. I never wasted the $300 on the ACT, but a $50 ACT book, used it as a coaster for pop, and got a 26 on my ACT. That's how ya gotta roll.

yeah the liberal bashing section was kinda hard. the first one was the hardest whatever it was.
and i agree ACT classes are overrated, they give you like overall 5 good tips, and thats that. And if ur having trouble on math just get a tutor, you dont need a class.

That government one was pretty hard, but the one about the kid and his grandfather balanced it out.
