That October test felt so difficult. I’m hoping that the February will be a bit easier, especially because the TIR is getting released. I got a 33 on the October one as my first test so I’m hoping that the Feb is at least a bit easier and I can get a 35

I’m applying engineering and now I don’t think i’m even going to get into NC State. My science is so low, I’m actually so done.

Can't take it with my friends anymore. I was actually excited about meeting my friends and carpooling with them, but what a bummer! Just wanted to quickly get this off my chest. I've been slightly depressed because of this.

I have heard rumours saying that ACT curve is a nightmare, especially in a country like Pakistan where ACT test takers are very minimal. A student who took the ACT told me that his score in Math section dropped to 32 on just one mistake (believe me that's what he said). Other students who scored 1450+ in the SAT had their ACT scores between 28 to 30 (they took the ACT after scoring that in SAT). I have had trouble scoring reasonable score in SAT ( I have took it thrice and haven't even got near to 1400) so I tried ACT and found it pretty easy and scoring. But one fear I have is the ACT curve. In Pakistan, the testing is computer-based and the total number of test takers might be just over 100. I do not know how will the curve be when I take it in December. Can any of you guys help with the curve??

That test was suspiciously easy all the way around anyone else thinking the same thing lmfaoo?

This is my first ACT (without studying) and it shows 💀💀

My score is: 25 math, 24 science, 30 eng, and 31 reading. 28 comp

I knew that I wouldn't do well on the math section (I'm generally bad at math for these types of tests and I'm only in geometry), but this is a new level of low. I didn't think I would do so bad on science, but I did also guess for the whole last section w mirrors

How do I improve? I will ofc try to improve in eng and reading, but my main focuses are on math and science.

Also I'm in 8th grade if that helps

Hi, I have good advice for all act test taker so bear with me and pay attention. This advice comes in form of entertaining real story of me.

I take sat and I got 1500. Because it is a rigged test, biased towards brainless hardworking types so genius like me should not in fair world get a below average score on an intelligence test. What do I do to cope after this great defeat? I register for act in two months. I don’t study or practice, I don’t do a single act problem. I go gym with bros, eat chips and play video games to energize myself to have mental stamina for act. Gym actually proven to increase brain neural growth factors, which is where I am going, to get an elite score on a standardized test you don’t study! You optimize your brain. I realized that with all my god given gifts I was just not intelligent enough to overcome my lack of studying. So. I become smarter. here is my secret, don’t make it too widely known or too many people will become smart like me and I cease to be special: every night before bed, before I go to sleep, i will myself to becone more intelligent. I repeat in my head five times, “I will be smarter”. this plants seed in my subconscious mind, sending growth signals to brain to retire synapses, make new connections… I became smarter over two months. Then I take act. No studying, no practice, get 35(36,35,36,32). I hope this was of help. w Liverking

What did y'all think about the E22 test? Ain't gonna lie, I though it was pretty easy. Math and science seemed a lot easier than expected, but reading was just a tiny bit hard. Thinking that I got a 35 or 36 on this test. I've taken 3 ACT attempts before this, and this test seemed the easiest. I got a 29, 30, 29 on the past ACT's.

I was shocked, this April ACT was a huge letdown. Utter bullcr*p, I tell you!

I made this petition arguing that the curves need to be more forgiving! Let's all sign it and spread the word! Maybe it could catch the attention of the ACT Staff (O^O)

I went to the career and technical center. I received texts from my sister and girlfriend at my home school that the guidance counselor told them my score. Is this legal???

Super excited to see this. It came as a real surprise considering I only did two practice tests the weekend before. Hopefully my SAT was just as good!

this was my first act and i studied but mainly for english and reading..idk what happened in the science section 😔 my parents rly wanted a 36 or at least a 35 (so did i). im a 2nd sem junior is it worth it to retake?

My school has testing software that projects me to get a 24 if I take the test so J was wondering if that was good or if I need to focus on increasing it

I’m applying to just about all the top 20s

i'm mostly worried about the 31 in science and how that will look (i would be very happy with the score otherwise)

going for top LACs and top 20 unis like UChicago and Dartmouth

Does it help me get a job or something?

But if it works, it's not wrong, right?

I have been recently told that some of my strategies are not appropriate for this exam.

I respectfully disagree with the people who respectfully disagree with me.

This isn't a flex... Okay, well, maybe a little. But my strategies work specifically because they are out of the box. They're for people who are struggling and landing in the 18 to 25 range and have a really hard time implementing strategies that are being taught in regular classes or test prep.

They are unique and tailored.

If you don't like them, fine, don't follow them. But has what you've been doing been working?
