i do not understand you have taking a test 6 months prior to graduating and they will not pass you, then maybe the school should not put so much pressure of kids to memorize this stuff when the real world contsts of things that are not taught in the FL school system. You should be able to retake the test that you did not do well on or your grades from your class shoud balance it out.

ohh..thanks..im trying...my grade in economics last semester is a C, i cant focus my self, my teacher cant explain it better, so im struggling, now in american gov't i got a B so far, in Intensive thats the hard one but i got an A last semester and now, i dnt know yet!!!! i hope i can pass all of it, and thanks for yoe advice...it helps me though, anyway! where am i gonna get the ny times, i dnt think my mom read newspaper!!! so should i buy??

Well, the math, and written part of the ACT are good to score on. However, you ONLY need a good score at the Reading, so really try to focus on the Reading section. Also American Gov is a class you would want to get an A in. That will benefit your GPA. Also concentrate in the Intensive Reading class, I never liked the class, however you always want to take advantage of times to study for your FCAT.

Yes, I would definitely say that reading the New York Times helps enhances your Vocabulary skills and reading skills.

I wish you the best of luck!!

ohh anyways u did a lot, good job! i hope i can do that too. im to young actually to be a senior, im only 16 and im afraid of taking it again,but i think i will pass it this time!

ok i will do that, thats a lot though. You comfort me :] wow, that a relief!! that for all the advice, so u mean that its ok if i failed my math, written part of the ACT or SAT just focused on READING. i do read a lot, i read everyday just to help me pass the fcat, and i hope it helps me!! im not taking any MATH's and SCIENCE im done with those. im in intensive reading, gym, ESOL, american gov't and arts. i think most of them are electives. thanks for answering my questions. i hope u can still help me if i have a questions nxt tym i will read ny times.
