<p>What is the best ACT prep book? Any opinions? thanks.</p>
<p>Red book, cracking the ACT, and 1096 questions from princeton are the general consensus for the ACT around here(the last book’s full of typos… but it’s good practice as it has 6 practice tests)</p>
<p>Princeton Review and the Official one from the ACT are the most useful
Make sure you buy/get recent years for the books for the best practice tests</p>
<p>Thanks guys! Umm the red one is the REAL ACT Prep Book correct? Oh and how many months do you guys usually spend studying for the ACT?</p>
<p>I study for the 2 months leading up to the ACT.
For the 2 weeks leading up to the ACT, studying is crucial and I’m talking about 1-2 hrs a day. </p>
<p>Hold on…I just realized it completely depends on what you plan to score. Still my method works well.</p>
<p>red book is usually a good choice for most</p>
<p>red book for tests + princeton for studying = success on ACT</p>
<p>olleger I don’t agree. While Princeton Reviews 1296 ACT questions is a great book for tests, the review book from PR doesn’t quite cut it. It does not cover advanced topics and in my opinion, does not give enough info to score 28-30+</p>
<p>Barons: 36 Aiming for the Perfect Score.</p>
<p>I used PR then went with this one afterward for the more advanced practice problems.</p>
<p>I had a lot of success using the redbook</p>
<p>Wannago2college: How much info is necessary for the ACT? These books teach to the ACT not to what we may need to know for the future</p>
<p>Also, someone on this board uploaded three previous “Preparing for the ACT” booklets - they’re real, previously administered tests. If you find those, and use the Official ACT Guide, that’s 6 real tests right there.</p>
