Project 365: Day # 153 - Saturday, February 11, 2012 "Take 2"

Well today's the day that I take the ACT once again. I felt as if it was somewhat easier than the first time I took it. I took my parents' as well as my tutor's advice which was to try to answer every question but at the same time, to make sure that I take my time and not let time get the very best of me. I really hope that I have improved this time. It also felt shorter compared to the SAT. Even though both tests are somewhat the same duration, I think that the SAT feels longer because of its 10 sections where as the ACT has four plus the writing.

Project 365: Day # 152 - Friday, February 9, 2012 "A lot going on"

I have a lot going on today. Yesterday we were given an interesting project in AVID where we were put into pairs in assimilation to the "Hunger Games". Our job as pairs to support each other in every way we can in order to really get to the bottom as to why we're struggling in our daunting AP classes and in other classes that we might be having trouble with. And today was the day before my retaking of the ACT. But this time I feel more confident about it since my tutor gave me a great pep talk.
