Since I write my papers like this, I also end up with around four

EWI’s can be expensive and time consuming to update or upgrade. Often times with software updates, the entire system needs to be shut down and rebooted a few times before activity can continue. Installing a separate system for instructions is highly unlikely; consequently, the shop would need to wait for the system to be back online before employees can resume work. In doing so, Evco is losing money and depending on the nature of the business, it could be creating angry clientele. Moments like these

My ACT Experience I have not taken the ACT’s yet, but I plan on doing so in the near distant future. I would like to take this important test somewhere in my junior year, and then most likely retake it to get a better score. I would like to reach a score of at least 30 when I take the ACT’s.
