-- Posted by note to self at 10:46 am on June 14, 2008 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 -- Posted by major at 10:47 am on June 14, 2008 the science part is the easiest part all you need to know how to do is read graphs. that's it. -- Posted by palepalepeach at 10:48 am on June 14, 2008 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. -- Posted by rainingxXxsunshine at 10:49 am on June 14, 2008 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. -- Posted by 2kewl4u2know at 10:50 am on June 14, 2008 i hated the science part too...i preferred the SAT far more than the ACT -- Posted by Mieux at 11:55 am on June 14, 2008 Quote: from Major at 1:47 pm on June 14, 2008 the science part is the easiest part all you need to know how to do is read graphs. that's it. QFT 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. -- Posted by Applequest at 12:40 pm on June 14, 2008 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). Hope you do well though! -- Posted by Mieux at 1:14 pm on June 14, 2008 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. :(
