<p>I just ordered this and the red book. How well will these two prepare me for the ACT if I got a 2190 SAT (690R 720 M 780 W)?</p>
<p>Well enough.</p>
<p>The red book doesn’t give much “tactics” or “tips” (apart from boring “pace yourself”, “read questions”, “answer every question”); it’s more about the 5 practice tests and answer explanations. (If the answer is A, it is explained why is it so and why it’s not B C D).</p>
<p>Barron’s 36 goes more into detail, but I don’t know precisely, since I got it yesterday.</p>
<p>Hey, I was just looking at ordering this on Amazon yesterday. They have it on kindle, so I was able to preview the first couple of pages (in full) because of Amazon’s new ‘try on kindle’ function. It seems really useful for a general tip on how to get at least a 32! It goes into specifics, in terms of the tips. However, if you know the areas in particular that you need to improve on, it might be best to also get specific prep books for those.!</p>
<p>But in terms of getting it with the red book, I think it was a good idea, since the 36 book suggests that you use it with a supplement! So best of luck with the ACT - practice makes perfect don’t forget!</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice guys. Yeah I bought both books but I got the red book with only 3 practice tests. Ah oh well.</p>
<p>What’s difference in Barron’s ACT and ACT 36?</p>
<p>
From what I know: Barron’s ACT is made for those who need preparation in general for the ACT, while Barron’s ACT 36 is made to help those who already have high composite scores get higher scores.</p>
<p>Any good for math, science, and reading?</p>
<p>Ordered the ACT 36 one, the Barron’s English, Reading, Writing book, and the International Student handbook 2014. Since im from the UK</p>
