Strengths And Weaknesses Of An Act Test For College Students
ACT, the test for most colleges and what students stress over the most. I have not taken the ACT, but plan to take it in the spring. In preparation for the ACT test, I am going to study hard this winter. I hope to get the highest score I can, but nothing below a twenty-two.
For my strengths, I think that I am good with developing ideas for writing and using a wide range of vocabulary. When writing a paper, I am very creative with ideas, characters, and details. I take writing seriously, and always want to do the best I can with every paper. I take good notes, and research topics well and knowing how vital these are to an essay makes me an excellent writer. Along with my strengths, I do have some weaknesses.
Everyone has weaknesses. Mine

    While writing too much is a weakness, it plays into my greatest strength. I write to the point and stay on topic. My writing is easy to follow and only contains relevant information. I give great detail without getting off subject. I never have to worry about not having enough to say.…

    Personally, I’ve always felt I was a decent writer in all aspects regarding research and personal narratives. Considering those are subjects that interest me and that I love to read about. I struggle the most when it comes to making my writing hold a deeper or hidden message when the topics I am told to write about don’t interest me. Having to do rhetorical analysis with old literature and having to explain the main idea was my number one struggle in AP language and composition senior year. But other than that I felt, throughout high school, I enjoyed writing and taking a majority of the writing classes my school had to offer, not only because it was required but because it was something that teachers and myself felt I did acceptable work.…

    I would have to say my writing is average and its nothing really special about it. There is some things I want to work on to make my papers as good as they could be. My strength as a writer is that I stay on topic and I hit all the points I suppose to hit. One of my challenge is that I don’t go into detail about my topic. I usually get straight to the point and I will have to go back and add details to meet the word requirements.…

    There are a variety of ways that tests can be misused and have an effect on the individual being tested. One ethical issue that may arise is how the test scores are interpreted and used. Especially the interpretation of test scored when testing diverse populations (Anastasi, & Urbina, 1997). According to Anastasi and Urbina (1997), scores can often be misinterpreted when testing diverse populations because of the lack of investigating further into why individuals from diverse populations obtained the low scores. They go onto report that researchers must explore other factors that may have impacted the test scores that the test itself cannot reveal.…

    Throughout my time is College Composition I, I learned and developed numerous skills that I will carry with me to college and beyond. While writing the five assigned essays, I was able to identify my strengths and weaknesses. I believe a strength of mine was my ability to add in personal stories into my essays. For example, in my definition essay, I included my fear of disappointment and how I work to overcome this particular fear. On the other hand, one weakness that I struggled with was style. While writing my essays, I would sometimes use wordy and unclear sentences structures. Often times I would focus solely on improving my diction while writing my papers.…

    I will not lie; my strengths when it comes to writing are few. The greatest strength so far has been topic choice. Even though my thesis may not be clear or in the correct format my topic has been strong. This positive feedback from the mentors and significant others has given me confidence and the desire to work on my weaknesses.…

    My strengths are a writer derive from my enthusiasm for writing. I think that part of my abilities stem from my love for writing, because I actually want to hone my skills and perfect my craft. Were there a church where I could mount the pulpit and preach on my feelings about writing, I would be up there doing it. I have said that this is something I must do, and it is true, but as the .love you feel in your heart and your soul for what you are doing reflects in the quality of what you do. Thus, a baker who kneads dough with love in his heart makes a far better loaf than one who dreads what he does, just as a plumber who loves plumbing…

    I would say that I excel at the first bullet point “Engagement” the most. I like writing, although I am not great at it. I especially enjoy learning how to argue and form opinions. I took a class similar to this in highschool and I really enjoyed it. In that class we were instructed to write a ten page research paper on a topic that we were interested in. I wrote my paper on international adoption. I have wanted to adopt kids since I was fourteen, but I didn’t know much about the process. Out of any paper I have ever written, besides my flash fiction papers, that research paper was the most intriguing and energizing for me to write. I would say that I lack the most skill in “Creativity”. I am not a creative person in most areas and I find being creative in a structured paper is difficult. If I was taught to write a research paper one way that is most likely the approach that I will take to it every time. When it comes to creative opinions I also am slow to brew. For exmaple, I did not come up with the my opinion that almond butter is better than creamy peanut butter and crunchy peanut butter until…

    Some of my strengths as a writer is that I am very creative. Once I have a topic in mind I can write a good story. I could also go on for hours typing up a story. Sometimes a writing assignment is so interesting to me I just do not want to stop writing and discussing it. Another strength of mine is that I am very good at research papers. I have always loved to learn about new topics. This has always been fun for me to do especially…

    two strengths I have when writing poetry I guess I can write about just anything if I had to or whatever comes to my head I can put down on paper pretty well I just can't find the right words to go at the end of them to make a clear rhyme scheme. Another weakness I have when writing is I have to kind of be in the mood if I want to write. if I am not feeling like writing it's almost impossible for me to start writing things but once I get going I am able to fluently putt down whatever I am thinking at the time. Maybe a strength that I have when writing is whatever I am thinking about I can express well how I am feeling if I am writing it. I have trouble telling people with words sometimes but when I write it down I can get out everything that I am feeling.…

    I find that my strengths include achievement motivation,school engagement, and reading for pleasure. I'm strong in these areas because I'm a naturally competitive person and find the need to compete with myself to do better then how I did before. My school engagement is because I have a natural interest and enthusiasm for learning new topics. Reading is a strength because it helps me understand people better, it allows me to look into the world and mind of someone new and get and understanding of why they are doing what they are doing. Although I hold these strengths I am most definitely not a perfect…
