ACT - June 11th 2005
Does anyone plan on taking the ACT on June 11th 2005 administration? If so, what have you been doing to prepare?
Right now, in the midst of all my finals I've tried to get a mix of ACT prep and final prep, however, since most of my finals are things tested on the ACT, I'm finding it also pretty useful. I heard a rumor that the ACT is easiest in June because all the people who are taking it for sports scholarships take it at the end of their Junior year. Do you have any tips or tricks? |

Re: ACT - June 11th 2005
I'm planning on taking it in June... but I have done no preparation whatsoever because I've been on a retreat for the apst few days. However, I'm just taking it to see if I like the ACT better than the SAT. However, I'm thoroughly scared because all of my friends say it's a pain. As much as everybody disagrees with me, I suggest the skimming passages thing for the ACT because there is VERY little time for everything... also, I advise you to guess the hell out of things because there's no point deduction for wrong answers, at least, that's what my friends said.

Re: ACT - June 11th 2005
Don't study on June 10 so that you can think clearly on June 11. Test taking ability is important for any time constraint test.
Good luck everyone.  Knok

Facts: Be sure to pass all sections of TOEFL iBT (R21, L18, S26*,W24) before applying for FPGEE. Thousands of candidates passed FPGEE but could not achieve TOEFL requirement after several attempts. Percent passing rate on the speaking section is only 10 percent. (http://www.ets.org/Media/Tests/TOEFL...mmary_2008.pdf, page 5) The average score on the speaking section of the US candidates is 22 and candidates from English speaking countries is 23 (http://www.ets.org/Media/Tests/TOEFL...mmary_2008.pdf, p. 9-10.)

Re: ACT - June 11th 2005
Ok, the test is probably finished in most of the country...What did you think?
English - Easy Math - Harder then usual  Reading - Everything was easy, besides the Prose Fiction Passage Science - Easy, except that stupid passage with Albert Einstein/Planets Writing - Easy Topic + what really made me happy was the fact that I finshed Reading/Science without running out of time |

I hated it... sigh... English - easy... grammar's always easy... Math - heh... I thought it was pretty easy... unsure about a few... Reading - egh... I finished... but reading isn't my strong point Science - oh my gosh the thing was a b****... I couldn't understand that mercury heating... whatever passage that was... my mind went blank... Writing - started an essay, realized it was extremely hostile, then restarted... Well, it was my first ACT... not sure how it went, but I hope I did well on the English and Math... and if I don't, I'll be in tears... well, not really... but I'll be disappointed... I hope I do well overall, though...
