ACT English

<p>Hello, I'm a new user and I've seen some good tips around here. So, I am asking for some help in improving my ACT English section score.
My highest composite score thusfar for the ACT has been a 30 with subscores of: Reading-36, Math-28, English-27, Science-27. I know I can improve my math, I made really silly mistakes when I looked over the optional test + answer key, and my answers. And science is really just an odd sort of reading comprehension. And I've received a 36 on the reading section the 2 times Ive taken the ACT, so I feel set on that. Therefore, I would really like to improve my English. </p>

<p>I am aiming for a composite of 32, but obviously the higher the better. I feel as a white male, with good grades and activities, etc. a 32 should be solid for getting into a decent college, not necessarily Top 25 caliber, but good enough. I also am a rising senior, so I can only take the ACT just about one more time (NO PRESSURE!, haha). </p>

<p>Anyway, I've never really had grammar classes or anything of the sort, so my grammar is pretty shotty. Therefore, I was wondering if anyone has any tips for improvement. I am willing to do most anything, Im extremely motivated to improve. I feel like if I started from the basics, in terms of grammar rules, and worked my way up I could get into a higher score range, but I don't know where to start. </p>

<p>All help is appreciated! Thanks!</p>

<p>Take some time and just write. Write WELL, too; don’t be embarrassed to use some kind of grammar textbook from the library. Then evaluate your writing on the basis of the sense it makes, but more importantly on its grammatical correctness.</p>

<p>Thank you for the correction, see! :p</p>
