I feel really really stupid compared to you guys on here…but seriously, please stop complaining about 35 or 36 composites. They are VERY good scores, and there are millions of people that would kill to have their names attached to those-less than a tenth of a percent of ACT takers get a 36. So be grateful and proud of yourselves! My score was still in the 96th national percentile and was not close to a 35 or 36, and I am okay with it. Anyway, here are my scores. I took it again yesterday and think I did MUCH better on science!! I didn’t have any prep either time, so I think I did well considering that factor.

April 10 ACT scores
Composite: 30
English: 34 (Essay: 10. I think I wrote a better essay the second time too)
Reading: 33
Math: 27
Science: 25

I have no idea how I did on math this time around…I didn’t know how to do the last question, where you find the roots of an equation that has x cubed, x squared, x, and a number. I couldn’t factor it and use the quadratic formula…well it’s over now, I will live. Plus I had to sit behind this guy I haven’t seen in over 3 years but he bullied me every day of junior high…I was terrified. That screwed up my concentration a bit. Ugh.
