well i just took the ACT for the first time and i am pretty sure that i did terrible... the science didn't make any sense at all.
I really need to do good or else my family will make fun of me. They already make fun of me for fail ing my permit test twice.
It sucks to be in a family full of geniuses so much more is expected of you

the science part is the easiest part all you need to know how to do is read graphs. that's it.

The goal of the science portion is to answer the questions with the knowledge you have and the information they give you. It's like a puzzle.

It's hard when you go to a charter school, and get bs and as and get called stupid because your little sister who goes to a normal public school gets all a's too.

I always do best on science. Don't bother reading the passages. Go straight to the questions. Most of the answers can be found in the graphs, charts, tables, etc.

I took the ACT today as well. This was my third time, and I thought I did the best on this one. I actually went down 3 points on the second try though =\
I always feel the science is hard when I'm taking it (its harder than practice tests and stuff), but I usually end up doing fine. This one had a few questions that needed prior knowledge (Which usually doesn't happen).
There was one term in one of the science passages that I didn't know, and it bugged me to death. Well I found out a few minutes ago what it is...I definitely got that question wrong. :(
