ACT drains juniors
March 1, 2022
There were a variety of feelings after juniors took the ACT on Tuesday.
“In the middle of the math section, started crying because I was thinking and putting down my math answers right,” junior Ariana Nguyen said. “And I was like, ‘I should just give up and become a prostitute.’ Like I’m thinking if I can’t do this, if I get a bad score, there’s something wrong. I should just give up, die and reincarnate into something smarter.”
“I think I did pretty well on the English section. Most of the other sections I think I did pretty less well on,” junior Shawn Kipp said. “The stress of taking standardized test was very greatly diminished since I was kind of used to it.”
“I think overall I did kind of average, which is kind of poor. If I was still enrolled in some of my older math classes, I probably would have understood. The math unit, that was harder for me to do and I haven’t been in a science class in a little bit. So I was a bit rusty on those things, but I don’t think I did God awful, so that’s good,” junior Lily Downey said.
“It was stressful for this test because I thought I wasn’t going to be done in time for all the tests,” junior Tyson Duong siad.
“On the math section I wasn’t confident at all. I was confident at first, and then as soon as it happened, I just lost all information,” junior Hannah Brean said.
“There was some stuff like the science, for example, there was some questions that were just easy and you could go through. And then some of them looked almost exactly like ones that were on the math,” junior Ajax Ivy said. “English and the reading one were kind of easy for me. My English teacher that I have, he already prepared us for that kind of stuff.”
