<p>I took the ACTs in October for the first time. I didn't study and got a 26. I want to get into the 30s. With the Feburary ACTs coming in about a month I'm preparing myself for a total social life shut down in order to really focuse on studying. I definitely feel like time management/nerves/lack of studying really attributed to my terrible score, but I'm hoping to change that next time. Can I have some tips that may help me improve? General or more specific to each subject.</p>
<p>Shutting yourself off from life seems a little extreme. Maybe you can form an ACT study group so you can be social and get some studying out of the way.</p>
<p>To ask for any advice is a little broad. So to help you focus on your specific needs, take a practice test under simulated test conditions. Find out when and where you struggle. Then at that point figure out your plan of attack. (i.e. what you need to study, etc.)</p>
<p>If you are still lost, you could find a coach or consult with somebody to put you on the right track.</p>
