<p>I'm taking my second ACT in 3 weeks and I need to improve my English score. The first time I took the ACT I got a 33 C but a 27 English (36S, 35M, 34CR FYI). </p>
<p>How can I improve this score, and what materials should I use to improve my grammar recognition?</p>
<p>Have you looked at the Barrons ‘36’ book? It has some great help for English regarding commas, tense usage, etc. However, a lot of the English section can be done by testing each answer and saying to yourself ‘which sounds better?’ or ‘does that sound right?’. If you are having trouble with that part, I’m not sure what would help you the most. Congratulations on how well you did on the other sections! ps I liked their tip about ‘less is more’. Do not pick the answer that says the same thing, but has 10 additional words in it!</p>
