33 or 34 I can't remember. I'm also a really good standardized test taker I find them kind of easy, which was clutch because my LSAT score is the only reason I got into law school (completely slacked off at OSU so I don't have a good GPA).

Manhattan Buckeye;818133 wrote:Agreed on both, re the first probably the average at my HS was a 19. I'm Facebook friends with many of them, and some of them have trouble even constructing a coherent message even if we're just discussing what they did last night. People here might post ideas I disagree with but for the most part the presentation is intellectually sound. I would guess the average ACT of an Ohiochatterer is in the high 20's.

I've ended up blocking the posts of most of my high school friends from my facebook newsfeed. I swear that most of them aren't functionally literate. Every time I hop on facebook, I feel worse about America's future.

115 lbs. 17 inches around. Think about it.


As for the other question, I don't bench.

That "18" is a bit misunderstood. I think it's actually a 17 though.

The way the NCAA does it is stupid. The NAIA is actually stricter in terms of academic qualifications.

i took mine in the middle of college and flew through most of it and got a 97 too. i remember the other guy i took it with scored so low his only options were infantry or transportation.
They usually call those guys marines.

Mine next year will be a 31 or so.......but I was only in the 5th grade (they made me take it during recess and I fell asleep and I was drunk with no sleep going into it and I just didn't care but I was ok because I'm really good at taking standardized tests) I got a 26 in kindergarten. Only scored a 22 from my embryo.

I got a 19!

I was going into the Army though at the time, and my mom forced me to take them anyway. I went through the entire booklet in 15 minutes, randomly guessing, and then I slept the rest of the time.

21 the first time 24 the second. 2nd time we were playing in a district soccer game at noon, so the people at Lancaster High school allowed us to take the test at our own pace. I swear the reading section I didn't read one word. Just tried to skim for answers. I rushed sooo much, yet got a better score. I laughed when I got my score.

My cousin Court missed 3 total questions. Graduated from Harvard. And my old gf from hs scored a 35 and was a 4.0 student at Notre Dame. I wish I had the smarts or study habits that others do. I made a joke of hs. Made going to college do much harder. Hopefully it's easier this time around.

I actually just looked at mine, as they are in a folder in the filing cabinet. I was wrong. I got an 19, then 24. Which makes sense because I remember the lady at capital telling me I'd have to take it again and get at least a 21 to get in to cap along with my grades if I wanted to play soccer.

LOL :D Seriously, my kids must all be a bunch of retards. I think their highest was a 24. I can't believe they can even function out in the real world.

...My nephew scored a 17...TWICE!. They said he was qualified to be a "fire watcher", not the kind that works in state parks/forests, but a person who just sits and watches fires burn.

Someone mentioned the ASVAB back a page or two, I tell you, that test made me feel like a fuckin genius. The coding section, I was remember saying to myself, I don't have to do any math, just scan lines for a certain number?

Of course our military would have a test that made us all feel like Ken Jennings.

If you're accepted to both, you'd be stupid not to go to NYU. Though this is probably a conversation for another thread . . .
