Those who run the ACT & SAT better get their stuff together and clamp down on the cheating that went on. Of course, they'll be hiring plenty of attorneys to deal with the lawsuits they're going to be hit with by legitimate students.
Boy was I lucky...I only took the ACT, way back in December 1971. As I recall, my biorhythms were great that day, having sufficient time to recheck my answers on every question twice.
As it turned out, I took the ACT on the last possible date to qualify for an Army ROTC scholarship, a fact I was unaware of when I scheduled the test. Like I say, I was lucky.
It was a perfect storm of events: decent grades, good test score, and undoubtedly a diminished pool of applicants due to the draft and Vietnam. That scholarship allowed me to attend Gonzaga, and graduate with zero student debt.
Anyone who gets through college debt free these days has good reason to gloat.
