<p>like the title, my science score blows. I took the first test out of the red book and got 35s on the first three sections (Math, English, and Reading), but a 27 on science (i missed 6). what should i do to improve in science? just practice....?</p>
<p>Yeah, just practice. In my opinion, Science is the easiest portion and I do well on it. All you need to know is how to read charts/ graphs and analze them. Basically if you want to go into Business (I do) and many other majors, you have to know how to do that.</p>
<p>I have the same problem, but I am not sure which other books to practice with besides the Real ACT book</p>
<p>If you help me with English and Reading I would be more than happy to help with Science.</p>
<p>E- 21
R- 22
M- 29
S- 30</p>
<p>Oh, well I do well on those sections, so this works out!</p>
<p>For English, you will find the same types of questions asked from test to test. What this means is that you simply need to learn some key rules about grammar in order to get the right answer. By rules, I mean things like parallel structure, verb tense agreement, repetition, plural usage, comma usage, apostrophe usage, and a few other things. Maybe try reading over Elements of Style. </p>
<p>For Reading, it always helps me to underline specific details, such as a character's name or a location, as I am reading each passage. The reason I do this is because the questions ask you to refer back to specific details in the passage, so if you have them underlined, you will save time AND get the right answer!</p>
<p>I was never initially very good at English. THE BEST thing you can do for English (Trust me on this one) is use Barrons ACT book. It has the MOST comprehensive review guide ever. It'll teach you everything you possibly need. Also, if you want a 35 in Math, then use Barrons. It's amazing. There isnt much science or reading review though.</p>
<p>Barrons and PR for english is perfecto :]
Yeah and for reaidng + sci it's all experience and practicing...no tricks except the ones that help you which you can only determine by doing lotsa practice tests</p>
<p>on the kaplan website, they offer over 350 free act questions. so you can try that.</p>
