I suspect the cheating will be uncovered shortly

Eta: saw they were Asian/Indian.
Congrats to them

I'm sure Gravy is going to have something to say about this.

I got a 34 without studying a minute, could’ve easily got a 36

Sophomores Grace Qian and Krishna Pochana and junior Robert Chumbley all earned a perfect 36 on the February test.
Things Qian, Pochana & Chumbley are NOT doing today:

Worried about co-eds on the Quad
Thinking about Les Miles' control or lack thereof
Wondering about the derivation of the OT's use of "Germans"
Touching a member of the opposite sex
Yard work
Being amazed about Paige's apparent rehabilitation

My daughter has made a 35 twice as a junior. She is pissed and is taking it again later this month to try and make 36.

According to Feinberg, less than one-tenth of 1 percent of students perform perfectly on the test.

They should be forced to give some of their ACT points to the dumb kids. #occupyACT

Is this really big news? Two kids in my class scored perfect on their SAT. This was 15+ years ago.

It isn't a test of knowledge. It's a test of patience. Simple mistakes are what drop you into the low 30s.

You can be the most patient dumbass in the world, and you’re not going to make a 36.

What are the odds any of these kids go to LSU? I'm think they're very small. Even smaller odds they end up working in Louisiana.

I know, it’s a mix of patience and intelligence. I wish I would’ve taken mine again after I got on adderal senior year. I had all the patience in the world

Qian plays the violin and is in Beta Club. Pochana is in Science Olympiad, Key Club and enjoys programming video games. Chumbley plays piano in the BRMHS Jazz Band, likes writing, and enjoys learning languages.

For certain none are going to college in LA. I'd guess Ivy League, MIT, and some liberal arts college. Though #2 might decide to waste their time at somewhere like SCAD.

Do accredited colleges accept the ACT?


All of the schools in the Big 10 and PAC 10 use ACT now.

She may already have a 36 super score, for those colleges that accept super scoring. My daughter got a 34 as a sophomore and two 35s as a junior with at least one 36 in each section. She got accepted to nine selective colleges. Good luck to you.
