<p>I prepped for the SAT and improved my score by 400 points, up to a 2000. Now, I am looking to prep for the ACT. For the SAT, I just took practice test after practice test BUT never took each all at once. I always split up the tests by doing around two 25 minute sections daily for about 2-3 months. Should the same method be used to study for the ACT? </p>
<p>For the math section, my only concerns are the Precalc problems. I am just starting Precalc this year and have very little knowledge of it. How much Precalc appears on the ACT? If I'm looking for a score of over 34 on the math section, will I be able to do this if I plan to take it in February? Which Precalc concepts are tested?</p>
<p>Is vocabulary tested on the reading section? Are the passages/questions easier than those on the SAT? </p>
<p>If I scored in the 700s on the SAT writing, can I expect a similar score on the english section of the ACT? What is tested on the ACT english section that isn't tested on the SAT writing section?</p>
<p>Which subjects does the science section cover? Biology, chemistry, and physics? If I am just starting Physics this year, will I have enough knowledge by February to do well on this section?</p>
<p>No it is not. The questions are more straightforward, but time is a bigger issue on the ACT reading than it is on the SAT reading.</p>

<p>More rhetorical questions and the ACT English section contains a lot more questions about commas than the does the SAT. Also tests hyphens and colons. You would really have to take a practice ACT English to see your real score, but a 700 on the writing will be about a 31 on the English (I think). </p>

<p>Although knowledge of those subjects will help, it is not required.</p>
<p>I don’t really know. I don’t usually pay attention to the math section because that is always the easiest section for me and takes the least time. But, from what I remember, just remember basic trig identities and how to use sin, cos, tan, cot, csc, sec when it comes to triangles.</p>
<p>Also, just remember the general equation for a circle and an ellipse, there are usually some questions on that.</p>
