ACT

Produced by ACT, Inc., ACT is a standardized test for college admissions and high school achievement in the US. It is widely used in the Southern and Midwestern United States, and is usually offered four to six times each year.

Is an Ivy League college possible if you are a sophomore and have over a 4.1 GPA unweighted and you haven't taken the ACT or SAT yet but you have been in key club and swimming for two years?

Getting into an ivy league university is more difficult than it was when I applied in the early '80's. I think that now they're looking for depth in one or two extracurricular activities rather than the 'well-rounded' that was more in vogue earlier. I would say that writing a book, especially if you could get it published, would be extremely helpful. Poems not so much, probably. Unless, again, published. If you've been doing something for two years make sure you keep doing it, take as many AP classes as possible, and make sure your essays are kick-ass. Do something unusual and stick with it if you can (hence the approval for book-writing). Make sure your standardized test scores are very very good. Study and/or hire help.

Are lowest test scores dropped for repeat testing on the sat 1 test?

Technically speaking, no. The Collegeboard will keep your test scores from all test dates on record under your Collegeboard account and profile (unless you specifically call to cancel your scores in the event of a calculator malfunction or illness during testing). This means that if a college asks you to send all of your scores (yes, they CAN ask students to not use Score Choice), you will have to send those low scores.

However, colleges like to make themselves look better when they can. (They have to report the average SAT scores of their incoming freshman classes to US News and World Report for ranking information, and they also have to provide data to profile books like the Princeton Review. Of course, higher numbers make them look more selective!) Colleges also like to help you out in the admissions process. So most of them are willing to look at only your top scores. This can be either from test date to test date or even from subject to subject.

For example, if you score 520 math/ 400 reading/ 560 writing on your first test but a 600 math/ 510 reading/ 420 writing on your second, a lot of colleges will ignore the lower math from test 1, the lower reading from test 1, and the lower writing from test 2. Some colleges (Tufts) have a computer system that will automatically select the highest scores you enter on your online app. These highest scores are the only ones the admissions officers will ever see, as the system hides all other scores for you.

In general, try to do well on the SAT. It's an important test that plays a huge role in college admissions/ scholarships/ etc. But if you do poorly on one section or test date, don't stress. Most likely, an admissions officer will ignore it if you retest better.

Good luck.

Can you take the ACTs and the SAT 2 subject tests?

It is certainly possible, and actually quite common, to take both the SAT examination and SAT subject test(s) in the same sitting. If you choose to take that route when registering, after taking the standard SAT, you must touch base with a proctor, who will then take you to your subject test. Common subject tests include Chemistry, Math II, and various foreign languages. Subject tests are typically not required, or can be replaced by the ACT, for college admissions purposes. Their traditional value has come in determining placement into intro college courses.

Could your SAT or ACT test scores affect your becoming a pediatrician?

Certainly. They affect the schools you can get into for your undergrad degree, which has an effect on the admittance into schools. It is a variable, but isn't going to prevent you from doing it.

What is the passing composite score for the nln--pax?

A composite percentile score of 50 or better or verbal percentile score of 60 or better is required for the level exam taken. For students interested in the PN program, the score can be found under the "DI" column. For students enrolled in the ADN program, the score can be found under the "AD" percentile column.

Your ACT test score is 23 what do that mean?

It simply means that the average score of the four sections (English, Math, Reading, and Science) was a 23. This score is known as the "composite" score, and is typically the score that most people or colleges are interested in.

That score places you slightly above the national average, which for 2009 was a 21.1. A 23 is a perfectly acceptable score, and will allow you to attend a number of universities if you so choose. However, if you aspire towards a "tier one" university that has more selective standards, you should likely re-test in the hopes of a higher score.

How do you write a program that prompt the user to enter five test scores and then prints the average test score?

public class TestScores10{

11 public static void main (String [] args);

12

13 {

14 Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);

15

16 //Variables for Program

17

18 double TestScore1 = 0.0;

19 double TestScore2 = 0.0;

20 double TestScore3 = 0.0;

21 double TestScore4 = 0.0;

22 double TestScore5 = 0.0;

23 double averageScore;

24

25

26 //Prompts for user input

27

28 System.out.println("Please enter Test Score 1: ");

29

30 System.out.println("Please enter Test Score 2: ");

32 System.out.println("Please enter Test Score 3: ");

33

34 System.out.println("Please enter Test Score 4: ");

35

36 System.out.println("Please enter Test Score 5: ");

37

39 averageScore = (TestScore1 + TestScore2 + TestScore3

40 + TestScore4 + TestScore5 / 5);

Do the ohmmeter test confirm the go-on-go test for the diode?

Yes, but only at a basic level.

If the diode measures low resistance in one direction, high resistance in the other, you know that it is not short-circuited.

But...

1. If it's a voltage-regulator/reference (Zener) diode, you do not know whether it has the correct breakdown voltage,

2. If diode leakage is important, you have not tested for leakage and the ohmmeter test does not do this reliably,

3. Your ohmmeter test voltage is probably no more than 9 volts, so you have not tested for high-voltage breakdown, and

4. If it's a rectifier (especially a high-current diode) you have not tested its forward voltage at full load current.

Why is perimeter measured in units and area measured in square units?

When you're measuring perimeter you are only dealing with one dimension. If I asked you to find the perimeter of a square whose side measures 2 m, you would instinctively say it was 8 m. You would probably show your work like this:
p=4(2)
p=8 m

Now do it, but carry the units m throughout the calculation.
p=4(2 m)
p=8 m

In one dimension, this is trivial. Let's try in two. Find the square's area. Once again carry the units.
A=(2 m)(2 m)
A=4 m²

When multiplying meter by meter (m times m), you get m². The same principle applies to volume.
v=(2 m)(2 m)(2 m)
v=8 m^3

What is the act of giving birth of the cow?

Parturition is defined as the process of giving birth. It occurs at the end of the gestation period, or pregnancy, as it is more commonly called, and it's a very critical management phase in the production cycle of livestock.

How do you start a 1989 century that sat for a year?

You may need to drain the entire fuel line, replace the fuel filter and clean the throttle body injector since fuel tends to go bad after that amount of time. There may be a lot of varnish buildup in the lines that prevents the car from starting. After you've drained all of the old fuel, put in some fuel line cleaner then if it still won't start, try a little starting fluid down the air intake. Once it starts, let it run for a while then put a little fuel line cleaner in the tank for the next few fillups.

Explain why perimeter is measured in units and area is measured in square units?

Because the perimeter is a linear measurement, and area is measured by multiplying 2 linear measurements together.
