<p>Alright, guys.</p>
<p>For the question with upgrade/stimulate/foster/improve, I put stimulate. I honestly believe that the answer is stimulate. I looked up all the definitions and stimulate is the most different from the other three. </p>
<p>Am I the only one that thinks this? Everybody else is going back and forth with upgrade/foster…</p>
<p>no.</p>
<p>it’s upgrade.</p>
<p>it makes perfect sense to stimulate interaction between seniors and teenagers.</p>
<p>however, it makes no sense to “upgrade” it.</p>
<p>Upgrade is like to upgrade a weapon or something.</p>
<p>yeah its upgrade.</p>
<p>“It’s her first book.”</p>
<p>good, i put her first book… that makes me feel better</p>
<p>"no.</p>
<p>it’s upgrade.</p>
<p>it makes perfect sense to stimulate interaction between seniors and teenagers.</p>
<p>however, it makes no sense to “upgrade” it.</p>
<p>Upgrade is like to upgrade a weapon or something."</p>
<p>i thought it was upgrade too… my friend and i have looked at it and he put foster… i could see that too… i was between foster and upgrade… here, i’ve looked up definitions of all 4 choices and thesaurus entries… they are all synonyms of each other… which is dumb… i just figured upgrade because usually when i think of upgrade i think of upgrading levels or upgrading equipment… foster literally means to further, but then if you think of foster care, it’s “nurturing” care… which isn’t furthering, but sustaining… so that’s why i was stuck bet/n foster and upgrade… i ultimately put upgrade b/c foster was used later on in the passage and had a meaning similar to improve… so i put upgrade as well</p>
<p>ok here’s the thing:
to ________ interaction between seniors and teenagers. possible choices are foster, stimulate, upgrade, and improve. ok, we all know that improve works, so does foster. Fostering interaction makes perfect sense. my intuitiveness tells me so. so now its between stimulate and upgrade. stimulate works better thatn upgrade because when i think of upgrade, i think of upgrading a thing or something, but it doesn;t make sense to upgrade interaction. thats just wat i think</p>
<p>sry for my emailish language when i type :S</p>
<p>Dang it!</p>
<p>You guys are right. Well, I know I got at least one wrong in the Writing section…</p>
<p>you mean the english section?</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the answer to the flagpole question in the Math section? It had like someone looking up at a 40 degree angle 35 feet away or something like that.</p>
<p>On the Tubman coauthor/1st book, I thought the options said that it was Larson and the other lady’s 1st book? That’s why I didn’t choose it.</p>
<p>those numbers sound right… well it would be set up like this ---- tan(40) = height/35 (opposite over adjacent)</p>
<p>so, multiply by 35, and you have height = 35tan(40)</p>
<p>that should have been an answer on there</p>
<p>^ that’s what I got as well, 35 Tan (40)</p>
<p>Does anyone remember more questions on the last 2 pages of math? I was so time pressed that it’s all a blur…</p>
<p>i just remember solving the last 4 problems in less than a minute and a half (barely finished in time)… it was exhilarating to finish that fast… other than that, i can’t remember specific problems</p>
<p>I’m not sure that you should keep the “air pollution” because what they do is alter a passage with errors then tell you to fix them. Since later in the passage they used the phrase that went along with “and air pollution” (sry i dont remember, fog or mist or something like that) without the “and air pollution” attached which meant that it never should have been there and the ACT put it there</p>
<p>i wasn’t sure about the air pollution, but i looked at the other 3 choices and the reasonings weren’t right… so i went with the one about keeping the air pollution (can’t remember the reason, though, but it was a better choice than the other ones listed)</p>
<p>i put tone as the reason why to get rid but it was a toss up with keeping b/c of relevence to sentence but finding that they omitted “and air pollution” later made be go with getting rid of it</p>
<p>no, you should have kept it.</p>
<p>The tone has nothing to do with it. the tone was an informative tone that tells what is going on, and saying “air pollution” doesn’t say the tone.</p>
<p>There is no reason to delete air pollution because it’s relevant to the passage.</p>
<p>curses, I was soooooo careless and stupid on that triangle problem.</p>
<p>quick question since this was my first ACT, how long till u get ur scores back and how do they round the composite; do they round if theres a decimal or if .5 or higher?</p>
<p>jetsny: yes, they round
i.e.
30. 25 = 30
30.49 = 30
30.50 = 31
30.75 = 31</p>
