This section is a pain. I'm looking around here and many people get great scores on every other section, but that science always seems to be at least 2 points lower than all the others. I'm having the same problem on the practice ones. Is there any trick to these? Some of them seem rediculously hard an others seem really easy. What's your strategy?

I wish I knew. I got a 34 reading, 31 engligh, 33 math, and 28 science. My friend got a 30 english then got a 20 science! It's CRAZY. The only think I can think of is to practice.

i got a 36 on science with no preparation at all (took the ACT for fun) Just look through the section carefully and youll be fine. (btw, my other scores were 34-math, 36-reading, 35-english)

Yeah, Science definitely brought my score down by a lot. It was six points lower than my second-lowest section score. -__- I just didn't expect to have short a time... in any case, I'm gonna try to take the ACT again and this time, be prepared for Science!

I got the same score on the Science section (32) as I did the composite. It took a while to read torugh the experiments and stuff, but if you don't get hung up on one problem, it shouldn't be much harder than the other sections...
