October 22nd ACT

Did anyone take the October 22nd ACT?

My feelings:

English - Easy as usual; there were a few quicky questions, though.

Math - Extremely difficult for me; the math section was much harder than the packet they give you

Reading - Pretty Easy; The passages were pretty easy, so were the questions

Science Extremely difficult; the passages were extremely verbose and required too much thinking

Ughh, I'm now going to rest.

Do you still sick to your motto: Having trouble with the SAT, try the ACT? now the other way around?

Babypurin,

My son could not finish two questions of Math. He said that they were too hard to solve. Other parts were easy. He did okay on writing, reading and science.

Again, he will take both ACT and SAT again in December. That would be the last. I wish he can smile after Dec.

Hmmm I've taken the New SAT 3 times, and the ACT with writing 3 times; and still stick to my motto, many people (including me!) seem to do better on one test or another.

The only problem is that the ACT is given in very few countries outside of the United States. Test centers will be extremly sparse and you can't take the "optional essay" section that many U.S. colleges require.
