Your ACT Score

• OneBuckeye

  

  32 in math with no calculator. booyay
• lhslep134

  

  33 or 34 I can't remember. I'm also a really good standardized test taker I find them kind of easy, which was clutch because my LSAT score is the only reason I got into law school (completely slacked off at OSU so I don't have a good GPA).

  Didn't score too well, huh?

I'm Facebook friends with many of them, and some of them have trouble even constructing a coherent message even if we're just discussing what they did last night. People here might post ideas I disagree with but for the most part the presentation is intellectually sound. I would guess the average ACT of an Ohiochatterer is in the high 20's.

  
  I've ended up blocking the posts of most of my high school friends from my facebook newsfeed. I swear that most of them aren't functionally literate. Every time I hop on facebook, I feel worse about America's future.

  115 lbs. 17 inches around. Think about it.
  
  
  As for the other question, I don't bench.

  That "18" is a bit misunderstood. I think it's actually a 17 though.
  
  The way the NCAA does it is stupid. The NAIA is actually stricter in terms of academic qualifications.

  i took mine in the middle of college and flew through most of it and got a 97 too. i remember the other guy i took it with scored so low his only options were infantry or transportation.

  They usually call those guys marines.

  You are not functionally literate!

  I'm going to save this thread and compare the answers here to the answers people give when this gets asked a year from now.
• Ironman92

  

  Mine next year will be a 31 or so.......but I was only in the 5th grade (they made me take it during recess and I fell asleep and I was drunk with no sleep going into it and I just didn't care but I was ok because I'm really good at taking standardized tests) I got a 26 in kindergarten. Only scored a 22 from my embryo.
• Sage

  

  I got a 19!
  
  I was going into the Army though at the time, and my mom forced me to take them anyway. I went through the entire booklet in 15 minutes, randomly guessing, and then I slept the rest of the time.

  Wittenberg University for undergrad (so that I could continue to play my sport)
  
  NYU or OSU law next year

  21 the first time 24 the second. 2nd time we were playing in a district soccer game at noon, so the people at Lancaster High school allowed us to take the test at our own pace. I swear the reading section I didn't read one word. Just tried to skim for answers. I rushed sooo much, yet got a better score. I laughed when I got my score.
  
  My cousin Court missed 3 total questions. Graduated from Harvard. And my old gf from hs scored a 35 and was a 4.0 student at Notre Dame. I wish I had the smarts or study habits that others do. I made a joke of hs. Made going to college do much harder. Hopefully it's easier this time around.

  Did anyone besides me get a 24 or less because that's all they got? VERY FEW!

  I actually just looked at mine, as they are in a folder in the filing cabinet. I was wrong. I got an 19, then 24. Which makes sense because I remember the lady at capital telling me I'd have to take it again and get at least a 21 to get in to cap along with my grades if I wanted to play soccer.
• Ironman92

  

  I definately could not find mine!
• redstreak one

  

  Count me in that group ironman, my 18 stands on its own! lol I guess I cant hold a conversation or create a complete sentence either! hahahahahah This thread has made for some lovely reading. I could call my mother, she may have held onto it, but I doubt it since I took it in 1987!

  LOL Seriously, my kids must all be a bunch of retards. I think their highest was a 24. I can't believe they can even function out in the real world.

  Marietta grad as well.

  ...My nephew scored a 17...TWICE!. They said he was qualified to be a "fire watcher", not the kind that works in state parks/forests, but a person who just sits and watches fires burn.
• swamisez

  

  Someone mentioned the ASVAB back a page or two, I tell you, that test made me feel like a fuckin genius. The coding section, I was remember saying to myself, I don't have to do any math, just scan lines for a certain number?
  
  Of course our military would have a test that made us all feel like Ken Jennings.

  You can automatically deduct 4 from each score posted on here.

  If you're accepted to both, you'd be stupid not to go to NYU. Though this is probably a conversation for another thread . . .
