I took my act in april and got a 25 I studied really hard and brought it up to a 28 I’m giving it one more shot in September for a 29/30. However, I feel I won’t be able to bring my score up which upsets me because I know the material and I second guess myself a lot. Can I bring my score up by 2 points by studying??? Any tips or hints because I’ve taken so many practice act tests at this point I don’t know what else to do.
Hello-
I might be able to provide some useful advice:
Study, study, study.
Unlike the SAT, the ACT tests not the aptitude, but the skill level in the core subjects of Math, Reading, Writing, and Science. I scored a 1270 on the new SAT, however with the same amount of studying I scored a 34 all around on the ACT. The more time you put into it the better the score. I suggest you study and practice areas you struggle in and periodically take different versions of the ACT practice test until the test date. I guarantee that will improve your score.
Just don’t go overboard with the studying. You have a few months.
I got a 30 in reading, 28 in math, 27 in science, and 25 in English I got a 26 in English last time so it surprised me that score went down
