Official September 2013 ACT English Thread

<p>@randomguy2, he was friendly because of the way he portrayed bats and helped get rid of misconceptions about them. that’s what I thought.</p>

<p>i remember the photography one. you had to end with period and a comma after</p>

<p>I put superhero because it said that he was not one. Jay, he taught himself wildlife photography</p>

<p>I put the superhero for that one answer… everything else seemed like it could relate to the story in one way or another (scientist, friend, etc).</p>

<p>As a whole, I felt like English took a bit longer than normal. Didn’t necessarily feel harder, though. There seemed to be a stronger emphasis on dashes rather than semicolons.</p>

<p>Anyone remember the one about the river with the fishes? it was like “it stretch from jhfsbis to laskncsjbv” was there a dash?</p>

<p>If it was like the last one, I think you just delete it because it already said it connected the river to Pugnet sound in the fragment before it.
Or do you mean the one in the begining about the port?</p>

<p>did anyone answer like two questions with dashes?</p>

<p>No dash. Just a comma after Seattle (or maybe before…I can’t remember exactly).</p>

<p>what did you guys get for the question in the salmon passage where the answers were which, whom or who?</p>

<p>Pretty sure that was “who.”</p>

<p>“who” was not an option, it was either which or whom , i put which because for whom it would have to be in an object case but it wasnt</p>

<p>Holy crap the whom question I had to come back to that like 4 times…</p>

<p>Oh crap. That was another “who”/“whom” question. The one about fish was “which.”</p>

<p>I think there were a few like that. “Fish which” and “people who,” that’s what I had anyway.</p>

<p>There was a weird question on the Civil War passage where it seemed like all the answers were wrong. It had to be either ‘than be’ or ‘than having been’ (or something like that). I put the former</p>

<p>I put having been for that one, Jazzed.</p>

<p>Put having been as well. Rest of the passage was all past tense.</p>

<p>i put having been for that q
i put which for the whom vs which q
i put superhero bc it explicitly stated he was not one
i put D for the weirs one</p>

<p>What do you guys think the curve will be like? IDK how this test seemed to compare other ACT’s this was my first one. I thought math was pretty easy, and I think i might have missed 6-8 questions on the english.</p>

<p>Hmm. I thought math was a breeze, don’t think I missed any of them. The only one I didnt know how to do i ended up solving it was #55 and I drew a line parallel too the horizontal line creating AIA of 28 degrees at <A and i made a right triangle with the radius and AO. Sin 28=7/AO</p>

<p>100% on this one i can draw it out if i am not explaining it well</p>
