<p>Im taking the SAT for the 2nd time on June 7, and was thinking of taking the ACT for the first time on June 14. Is one week enough to prepare for the ACT if i want to score 32+ ? I know i could start reviewing for it earlier, but realistically, i will probably focus on the SAT until June 7.
Also, for those of you who scored 32+ on the ACT, what was the best book or method of prep for it? Thanks</p>
<p>prepped one week for a 36, used real act study guide</p>
<p>I got a 34, but I studied way more than Ephemeral2 did. haha... I think I spent like two months, but the ACT was the first standardized test that I took. I also used the Real ACT Study Guide along with two other books which weren't as helpful. I think that you'll do fine if you've been studying for the SAT for a while; the ACT is a little different, but I thought it was easier than the SAT. For reference (if this helps at all), I took the ACT in April of my junior year and the SAT in June of the same year (after two AP tests and two SAT II's... I don't recommend doing this because I was drained after taking that many tests).</p>
<p>i agree with sandybeach - taking too many tests really will drain you</p>
<p>Stick with the Real ACT book. It's the most reliable, in my opinion.</p>
