<p>For those of you that brought up your ACT scores a good amount. How did you do it?</p>
<p>Can't say much for composite, most of my scores just went up the second time I took it. As for english, however, my friend gave me this policy: "The smallest dancer is the best dancer," meaning that the shortest answer that makes sense and is gramatically correct is generally the answer because that's how the grammar test is made. Just following this policy, with no studying, review, or anything, raised my English score three points.</p>
<p>I was shocked with how much my composite score improved after taking the test a second time. I guess it was just due to familiarity with the test, and the fact that I was pretty relaxed because I knew that if I didn't score well, I could just take it again in a month or two. </p>
<p>First time I took it, I got a 30; second time, 34. Got a 7 point jump in science, and an 8 point jump in english; I doubt I could duplicate this.</p>
<p>OH YES YOU CAN! Believe me I only took one week of hardcore studying and I raised my score from a 28-->33 (well I guess I got a 32, but overall a 33) ... my English didn't go up, but Math went up 4 (31->35) Science went up 7 (26-->33) and Reading went up 8 (26-->33) it was amazing... just study really hard for a week before, that's all I did</p>
