Today’s ACT question of the day is the same detail question about a hat we saw about a week ago.
If you’re ready to review for next week’s test, you can take a look over all ACT tips to make sure you’ve got your strategies down! Don’t forget your test day checklist, either.
Today’s SAT question of the day is a math question that’s rated easy. Follow along with me to see if that’s true – and to avoid falling into a common trap.
For all test questions everywhere, we have to remember to answer what the question is asking. Today’s question asks us the following:
If √x = 16, √4x = ?? Continue reading
Today’s ACT question of the day is a math question about absolute value and number properties. Remember the basic fact about absolute value: everything that comes out of the bars is either positive or 0. Kind of like coming out of prison?
Anyhow. If we have that fact with us, we can answer this question. Continue reading
Today’s SAT question of the day is an improving sentences question about transitions, idiom, and adverbs all at once…though it might look like a preposition issue, too.
Bessie Coleman
Today’s ACT question of the day is an English question from the passage we saw just over a week ago about Bessie Coleman. Today we are looking at underlined portion 5 to see how best to revise it.
Portion 5 comes between a sentence about when she was born and where she would end up and a sentence about life in Oklahoma. The underlined sentence gives us information about how long ago 1893 was, and there’s nothing grammatically wrong with the sentence as it’s written. Continue reading
Today’s SAT Question of the Day is a hard-difficulty, one-blank sentence completion. Not only is the vocabulary level of the answer choices pretty tough, the sentence itself is complex…or so it seems at first. Let’s give it a try.
Today’s ACT science question of the day brings us back to the stick we met four days ago. This time, instead of looking for data in the charts, we are asked about something relating to the scientific method.
They would like to know what remains constant in all of the experiments – in other words, we are looking for something that is part of the setup, definitely not one of the variables that is being measured. Continue reading
Today’s SAT question of the day is a medium-difficulty math question that involves some basic algebra…and multiplying by 4. (I’ll wait while you get your calculator for that last part … ….)
We are told that there are two machines: X and Y.
Machine X works at a rate of X bolts per hour.
Machine Y works at a rate of X + 6 bolts per hour.
They want to know how many bolts are produced, total, in four hours. So, first, we have to figure out how many bolts are produced in one hour. Continue reading
Today’s ACT question of the day comes from a fiction passage – the same passage we saw last week, in fact, in the question about the hat. Our question asks us to consider evidence given throughout the passage as support for why the children are saying “no” at the end of the text.
Today’s SAT question of the day is an identifying sentence errors question about the Sistine Chapel. It definitely won’t take you four years to hear the error in this sentence if you read carefully and pay attention to each word.
