Dun goof'd moron. Coulda got good money from that.
My act was 20 so good job lad
Awful. My sister got 33, and she was retarded. Never took the ACTs. SAT master race.
The education problem could be solved overnight by granting unlimited free-of-charge access to e-learning while at the same time imposing severe fines on ignorance.
>>28526363
30 is 95th percentile m8. You can transfer from cc if you want with ease as long as you get decent grades. I was a 3.05 student with a 30 act and got into a pretty decent tech school. My English and reading were trash, but I had 35 sci and 32 math.
>>28526363
some places will let you transfer in as a sophmore if you have some freshman credit and SAT or ACT thats good enough.
No idea who or how it works though
Poste you're act socres

Don't ask me how. I don't know either.
>>28526363
I got National Merit Finalist and got my tuitions paid if that counts. Still don't have friends though...
ACT had way too much fucking reading.
>>28527231

good scores senpai, what breakdown?
i got 700CR 770M 730W (didn't even apply to ivies)
>ITT: Everyone likes about their ACT scores
I got 30 too. I believe it was a 34 in English that brought me up.
Hopefully I'll get into med school in a few years, though my grades aren't stellar.
>>28527343

my friend got a 2380 or a 2390 (idk exactly) and has a 4.0 from a really tough private school but still got rejected ED from columbia, shit's tough
he's going to uchicago though so it's not like he did poorly in the college process

Honestly, It shouldn't matter if you get into an Ivy League or not as long as you go to a good state school and get out with connections. I feel as if the feeling of euphoria of getting into an Ivy will fade away after a day or two.
Join the military and live live better life than any of the retards going into debt for the rest of their lives to go to school

That's your typical smart but lazy score. Also fuck this entire thread for reminding me how far I've fallen. Depressed NEET here, former National Merit Finalist, 35 ACT, 2250 SAT.

Go to a community college and transfer in 2 years
College is a waste of money for you with that score
>>28527673
I feel you anon. I was the dude that has no friends but made National Merit Finalist. I just hope that once I get to college I make friends and connections and actually motivate myself to work hard.
>>28527673
No it isn't 30-32 ACT is awful
>2250 SAT/35 ACT
is actually good
you might actually have a claim
>>28527741
Bad habit of procrastination stemming from zero willpower. You need to connect with your peers so you can have a social safety net. Try to keep yourself occupied and focused away from the web. Be brave and do not retreat within yourself like a turtle. Pick a major you actually like and are passionate about and stick with it. Be proactive with professors and network.
>>28527813
That's a good grades because study 24/7 score,
why do tryhards like you always have disdain for us natural smarts
>>28527186
same
i got a 34 and a 2250 on my SAT, and i got rejected everywhere. studying mathematics at state uni now.
>>28527565
Top 10 is top 10 for a reason
better peers, resources and networking
>>28527939
Your competition for top10 all have that score, along with 3.9 unweighted 4.6+ weighted and extra curricular
>>28527728
The other guy who responded to you isn't me.
Anyways what happened was basically I had some really shitty teachers and I handled it in an awful way
>24 in reading
wtf? I got a perfect reading score by just fuckin reading it, didn't even do any of that gay annotating shit that they told me to do
>>28527927
Nah it's bad
>>28527186
2270 here too.
I got a 8 on the essay which brought down my writing score to 750. fuck
Which univ are you going anon?
>tfw couldn't take the ACT because lost my driver's license and they were assholes about needing identification
Why the fuck is that even a requirement? Am I going to pretend to be somebody else?
>>28528049
Asians literally hire people to take tests for them so it's actually common
>>28527977
nigga i had a 4.65 weighted (3.95 unweighted) and extracurriculars
it's largely a dice roll, man
>>28528049
otherwise lots of asians would be taking lots of tests for rich white kids
>>28528063
Are you a white male? If so, you might as well reduce that GPA by 3 points.
>>28528063
Oh that sucks then. Sorry for assuming
>>28526363
I got 31 without trying so do it again fuckmunch.
>>28528079
yup, i'm a white male. a couple of my other friends were a bit luckier and got into places like Stanford.
>>28528081
it's cool.
>>28527794
BTDT--you will have zillions of opportunities to meet people; spend your first semester doing that, but gravitate towards those who have good study habits. If you're like most college kids (certainly me, back in the day), your biggest problem in studying is constant distractions pulling you away. If you have friends who don't study, it's MUCH worse, because even if you want to study, they will usually talk you into skipping it. It didn't help that my roommates for the first two years were both slackers--one flunked out and the other almost flunked out but went to summer school to save his hide. I was friends with both, so I would be studying and they would say "let's go do ____" and I would.
Best way is to join a group you're interested in like a service group, choir, etc. with a "purpose" you like (not a social fraternity necessarily--as if a Robot could get in a frat) and you will meet people of your same "caliber". It's definitely true that the people you meet in college will help guide what you do in your first days out of college, so choose wisely and hold on to them.
>>28527939
You didn't suck the right dicks
>>28527492
uchicago >>>> columbia anyway
columbia is for unserious rich people. uchicago is for people who are actually smart
Got a 31
Three times
>>28528292
he's happy of course but columbia was his #1 (probably location desu)
ayyy we got some other national merit finalists in here. took the ACT the last possible date without studying and got a 34, national merit is paying for half my tuition at USC so thats nice too
>>28526363
>24 in reading
are you illiterate?
>>28528354
You can get national merit from ACT? I got it from the PSAT and it's paying for more than half of my state uni's tuition.
> It's another "everyone on r9k is a high schooler and not only that but a genius too" thread
got a 2400 SAT, currently at a top tier ivy. its worth

>>28528400
nah from the PSAT, my post was just worded lazily. most schools give you shit nothing for it but some schools hand out real scholarships which is nice

>>28527577
unless you're Daniel Callaghan, you're not staying in the military for life; getting out after twenty years with a degree from ITT tech and lifetime of knowledge of peeling potatoes and sweeping won't get you far
32 here with no studying or practice test. My dad used to tell everyone about that.

this board has changed, anon.. in fact I doubt it was ever exclusively used by "robots"
690 writting, 670 reading and 750 math without any prep, didnt even bother to take the ACT. One of my teachers encouraged me to apply to at least one ivies, I scoffed, what a retard. I ended up in a shitty state school.
I got 28 I got a perfect score on math and nearly perfect in reading and writing
I absolutely bombed the science section
>>28528621
nigga that was the easiest one after math
>>28528406
more like a

>>28528621
Got a 28 too
34 in reading
18 in math (it's always been my worst subject, my mom can't even multiply 2 digit numbers without a calculator
Bad in writing
29 in science
Science section is more about how well you can read graphs than anything

Holy fuck youre me
National Marit Finalist
2250 SAT
35 ACT
Got rejected by Ivies but got a full tuition scholarship to a state school
>>28528658
Honestly the SATs/ACT are not even that hard. They cover what, algebra or precalc if I recall correctly? The thing that most people get fucked over on is the very basics such as adding. Theres a time limit therefore everyone is rushing, naturally making some mistakes. Im sure that given enough time I wouldve added up two numbers correctly. There is no way a student taking some form of calc in high school deserves anything below 800 on SAT MATH I, its just nonsense. They just write their questions in a stupid manner so you get confused and make a mistake.
>>28528652
>>28528665
I feel like my brain ran out of juice when I got to the science section
I would read the question over and over again and it wouldn't click in my head what exactly it was asking for
Pretty much how that entire section went
I got a 2060 on my Sat
Writing was my lowest score
American exams are a joke; they require nothing.
>>28527186
Ivies are for Nouveau Riche idiots to learn how to parrot their professor and suck dick for a living.
Also got 30, I am a certified dumb fuck. I hate that test because it switched my parents mindset for why I get bad grades from me being dumb, to me being lazy.
I just am not interested in any of that shit, I don't give a fuck about academic subjects and my performance in those areas does not mean anything to my perception of myself.
>>28528697
Ask me anything /r9k/
>>28526363
You kind of ruined yourself by taking that year of community college since you won't be eligible for incoming freshmen scholarship (as far as I know). Plus ACT alone won't get you much; I only got $7000 at a mediocre state school for a 34 with 3.3 GPA.
My SAT scores
Not bad, considering I dropped out and got my GED.
>got a 29 by guessing on a fourth of the test
>3.77 gpa from nothing but ap + de classes (still piss easy)

is this normal? am I really expected to pay $24,000 a year?
>>28526363

800 reading 660 math and writing. anyone else similar?
also took an ACT I didn't know I was scheduled for while I was rekt on an edible and got a 30
I had gotten a
>32 in English
>28 in Mathematics
>30 in Science
>29 in Reading
For a comp. 30 score if I remember correctly.
Was a few years ago, and I didn't study so if I decided to be a good student I could probably get a 34 easy.
>>28529012
What are you majoring in
Good job btw
>>28526363
that's a decent overall score, but study the reading part, hard, and get a 36 in science. All the info you need is provided in the test. There is actually no need to know science, just to gather information from reading texts and having good common sense.
kill it lad, get a grad school scholarship.
>>28529175
something like 730 reading, 720 math, 620 writing, but I never even knew how to find logarithms when I took the SAT. Not sure what happened with the essay; I think I was trying to write 5 paragraphs in 25 minutes but since I have shitty motor coordination (i.e. handwriting speed) I had to rush it. Still feels pretty good tibietch.

>>28529601
I've seen the SAT and it's basically our 9th grade exams but in one piece instead of four hour long exams.
At a senior level, there are 2 mandatory 6 hour exams (in written and multiple-choice parts). Formerly, this structure expanded to the senior maths course and the three sciences, but now they're just 3 hours long, multiple choice.
The only flaw is that the exams are often biased to the marker, as they are forced to drive at least an hour to the provincial capital to mark exams for hours, after writing them themselves, for a small increase to salary (and no choice to decline unless something like a funeral is planned, but even then that's just a day off).
I took these exams a decade ago, but was punished with a poor mark due to essentially writing beyond what was expected, and thereby making my finished work too difficult to give a proper mark.
It's a much more massive and demanding exam, with less resources to study on.
>>28529630
Yes
>>28529733
>he doesn't understand the purpose of standardized testing
You could probably learn about that topic at one of the USA's top ranked schools

Idiots believe this means anything.
Schools are ranked by a filthy empiricist metric (publications/alumni/ratings/research). None of this speaks of the actual quality of education.
>>28530138
The only degrees cared about on an international scale, outside of a few institutions (London School of Economics, Ecole Polytechnique, etc.) are top rated American schools. Name one foreign institution that produces (and attracts) people like MIT.
>mfw foreignfags are both dumb AND jelly
can you explain what you guys are talking about to a foreigner
>>28530270

Not a valid measure of quality.
MIT and other trash schools only attract bloated idiots and general Nouveau Riche trash.
Filthy, filthy empiricist brat.
