ACT Improvement Advice Needed

Test Preparation
1

Hello,

I am currently working to try to improve my ACT score before April 19th. I have been studying for quite a while, but I can’t seem to improve my reading score. I have put in a great deal of time to improve it, but I can’t seem to reach the score I want (I consistently miss 4-5 questions). I have tried improving my timing, looking at strategies, and learning incorrect answer types, but all have had little impact. I would like to figure out how to improve my score on my own as I can’t afford a tutor, but I’m not sure how. Any advice would be extremely beneficial!

Hi @epalm18 , I’m not sure if you’ve already tried doing this, but I’ve noticed that reflection can help a lot with studying. When you get questions wrong, think about why you got them wrong. Was it a silly mistake, were you rushing, did you not understand the question, etc. Then go back and review the reasons why you’re messing up and use those insights going forward. Hope that helps a bit!
