B.O.B. "Real World Connection"
Being a senior I've already had the wonderful experience of taking the ACT. My first score was not at all what I had been predicting to score, so I had decided to take it again. Well my scheduled retake date was the weekend following the start of the new trimester. I had prepared as much as I thought I could possibly prepare. Reviewing my old practice tests and taking advantage of the free online tests, I thought I was good to go. I entered this class not having ever really seen or worked with intervals and interval notation, the only time I had seen it was on the first ACT test I took. Obviously having not ever seen it before that section of the test was not my strongest. That being said I felt a little bit more prepared taking the second ACT, but I seriously was so surprised at the amount of interval questions that were on this test. I am so grateful that I was exposed to intervals right before taking the ACT again, cause if I hadn't of had that exposure I would have bombed the math section. Thankfully though I was able to answer those questions confidentially and with my new scores in, math was my second strongest portion.
I'm so happy that something you learned in this class was useful so quickly, even if it was for the ACT.
