<p>Was there ever a time when a test taker got 5 wrong but still got a 36?</p>
<p>or a time when a test taker got 1 wrong and got a 32? have those scenarios every occurred in the history of the ACT?</p>

<p>You will never get more than 2 wrong and get a 36. You will also never get 1 wrong and get less than a 34. ------> From what I’ve seen.</p>
<p>I don’t think I’ve ever seen a test where -2=36 </p>
<p>But there are quite a few science sections where -1=34 or -3=32</p>
<p>One of the red book reading sections has a -2 = 36</p>
<p>June 11, 2011 math had a -5 = 34.</p>
<p>This is the most lenient i’ve seen</p>
<p>April 2011 science had a -2 = 32 and a -5 = 28 </p>
<p>The harshest i’ve seen</p>
<p>I saw one test where if you missed 7 in the right place you could get a36</p>
<p>I saw a few of the curves for tests administered in 2003-2005 somewhere yesterday, and they were definitely not the msot forgiving curves. Very, very harsh indeed. On one of administrations, in not one section did a -1 yield a 36. Either society is getting dumber as a whole or the ACT is getting more difficult. I wouldn’t be suprised if both were true… :)</p>
