What is a "good" ACT score? Not really. I can't even recall a time when I posted my ACT score on this website.

What's sad is i know multiple people who scored over 30 who went off the deep end and aren't very successful, much less useful.


I read somewhere that "more intelligent" people (which is a loaded term in itself. There are lots of different kinds of intelligence) are much more likely to have substance abuse problems.

I was actually told at the career fair last week that whichever company it was would prefer a lower GPA than a 4.0. I guess having a 4.0 generally means you're a nerd who spends all their time studying instead of working, doing extracurriculars, etc.

Of course there's probably some OT ballers that had 4.0's in college and make six figures now.

Unfortunately being able to manage and manipulate people get you further in life than actually knowing what you're doing.

Damn, son. I would have taken a class specifically geared to reading and science. Could have been life changing.

Reading was pure strategy and efficiency. Once you figured out how to take that part, it was cake. I think I improved 6-7 points in reading just from talking to my teachers and other students and after taking it once.

For someone who is an exceptional reader, I'm baffled at how I could be so terrible at sentence structure and grammar. One would think the two went hand in hand.


Yup. I spent most of my childhood with my nose in a book, so I'm all about grammar and stuff.

You are wrong. It's not just ACT threads, it's MCAT, LSAT, IQ, annual salaries, 40 time, etc.

Unless you truly believe that this message board contains the world's top genius minds.

I know. Being a manipulative, dishonest, backstabbing asshat is one of the life skills I wish I would have acquired.

I still don't know if I'm allowed to end a sentence in a preposition.
