I've tried many different programs in a desperate attempt to boost my ACT score, but I have not been able to improve it anyhow. Are there any tips that can help a Junior out before his next ACT test coming out?
From what I've learned from the Princeton Review, Huntington, as well as external sources from my school:
English (45 Minutes, 75 Questions)
- Take 9 Minutes per passage
- Read EVERYTHING in the passage
- "Its' is not a word".
Math (60 Minutes, 60 Questions)
- Draw Objects out if necessary
Reading (35 Minutes, 40 Questions)
- 10 Questions per Passage (8-9 Minutes / Passage)
Science (35 Minutes, 40 Questions)
- 3-4 Minutes on the Charts / Graphs
- 4-5 Minutes on the "Multiple Experiments"
- 5-6 Minutes on the Reading Passage

Read more. Read variety. Read the Classics. Read, read, read.

Just keeping taking the tests at the back of the help books. There are also some free ones online. Honestly, it is a matter of luck of what problems you get and how confident you are going into the test. If you have a particularly hard time with one section, just study that for a couple days straight.
