How did you prep for the ACT/SAT?

<p>Also, did you do prep for the ACT/SAT at the same time? Well, I'm on summer vacation, and i want to take advantage of the free time. I'm signing up for the ACT in Sept, and the SAT in Oct. So far, my mum is helping me, which she's a teacher and is in a master's class for reading. Also, i'm getting some prep books from the library with some test info and practice tests...is this enough? b/c i can't really afford prep classes, etc. Lastly, what did you get on these tests (just to see how beneficial your studying strategy was)?? Thank you :)</p>

<p>For ACT I usually take it after the SAT. For SAT I use Princeton Review and the Blue Book. and I’m hoping for a 2200+ on the June SAT!</p>
