<p>So which ACT books do you guys recommend:</p>
<p>my brother is a junior and gave the ACT for the first time he scored a C:31. His break down was</p>
<p>M 34
R 30
S 30
W 29</p>
<p>what books are recommended to improve science and reading!?</p>
<p>Thanks Everyone!</p>
<p>reading: kaplan</p>
<p>Barron's if you want a challenge</p>
<p>Princeton Review and real ACT.</p>
<p>Don't really need to read just take practice tests.</p>
<p>do as many practice tests as possible</p>
<p>I actually don't recommend barron's unless it's for math or science
everyone perceives those questions as "harder", but in my opinion it's only harder because they ask questions on english and reading that are quite unlike any you'll see on the real test; same with math and science, but with math, that just means you'll be able to see tricks easier, compute faster, etc. and same for science: tricks
but for english and reading...it's bogus</p>
<p>for reading I recommend kaplan and princeton review
I've never used mcgraw hill personally, but I've heard that it's easier than real thing =/</p>
<p>princeton review reviews the math section in great detail (more than any other book)</p>
<p>and finally, for overall practice (especially good for if you want accurate feedback on english I thought) use the red "real ACT prep guide)</p>
