Different path to ACT(GED)

Test Preparation ACT Preparation

<p>I'm currently a community college student in hopes of transferring to a local university.
My GPA is 4.0 but the university requires that I sit for the ACT + writing. I earned a GED and therefore took very few high school courses. I've taken some college mathematics and received an "A" in them. I took all the other sub-tests and seem to score fairly well in them. </p>

<p>Because Math is the subject I feel I needed to study, I did so and recently took a Real ACT prep practice math test and got a 26. The college I'm applying to requires a math sub-score of 19 or more. </p>

<p>If I scored 7 points above what is required on an actual old ACT test, would if be safe to assume that I'm prepared? I've been studying for a few weeks and I intend to continue. In addition, next week I'm meeting with a tutor for about 2 hours to cover some more math concepts on which I'm shaky. I've registered to sit for the April 9 examination. </p>

<p>This question is for those who've had the opportunity to sit for the ACT. Do scores on Real ACT prep have any relation to scores on the actual exam? (Keep in mind I'm not shooting for the stars due to the fact that I'm already a college student who performs well. I just want to due well enough on the ACT to go to my local university because they have far more resources which are applicable to my major/interest.)</p>

<p>Thanks for your time</p>

<p>I just finished up a Real ACT prep red book practice tests and I made a 32 in math. My only concern is that I was a few minutes over the limit (about 4). Is this a cause for concern?
I think this was due to me checking problems prior to completing the entire test. Other that that, I feel really good about my prospects. </p>

<p>Do you guys think time will be a concern for me?</p>
