English was easy, Reading was okay, math was hard, and lets just say I didn't even read the science questions after number 3(;

how'd you guys do on your ACT? or how do you think you will do?

I find that they asked quite a few math questions that i haven't even taken classes for yet, like pre-calc, trig, and all that rubbish... it kind of annoys me, because how do they expect me to know that when i haven't even taken the class yet? >_<

I haven't taken mine yet, but I'm expecting to do relatively well. I haven't studied at all, nor for my SATs. But honestly, I'm not applying for any schools where my scores that I will get without studying will restrict me from being accepted. Plus, if I don't like my scores, I'll just take them over. :)

I get my score in 5-8 weeks, i think i got at least a 20. I need 20-25 to go to the college I want to go to, which is Michigan State, so i hope i can manage that. If not, then retakes are nice(:

I haven't taken it myself yet. My brother got a 29 on it.

I have the SAT coming up on March 12th.

Will you be taking both or just the SAT?

I did way better on the ACT than the SAT. I really, really hate the College Board :( I'm so sick of given them money for the SAT and AP tests.

Do you have to pay to take the initial test? Here it's free.

I got a 26 the first time I took the ACT. Considering I didn't study at all, I think can do better. I'm taking it again in April. I want at least a 28 before I graduate next year.

I haven't taken the ACT, just the SAT.

For SAT I got 800 on Reading (yes, aced), 720 on math and 690 on writing.

Can't really complain about the reading since... well I can't do better. :P Hoped to do better on the math, and colleges still don't even look at the writing section. XD

Jealous. My PSAT's cost me...not very much, if I remember correctly. MY SAT was $48, and I think the ACT is around there as well. Combined two AP exams for me, that are each around $100, and you've got a shitload of money heading out of my pocket to take tests.

Yea but just think if you get good enough scores on those APs to count for college credits that it will be saving you big money!
