How long does it usually take YOU for each section?

Test Preparation ACT Preparation
1

<p>I'm prepping for the September exam and was just curious as to where other CCers stood and how long it takes everyone. I don't know if I'm personally rushing through it, or if it's supposed to take up until the last minute. </p>

<p>English ~10 mins remaining: I can usually get answers right off the bat for most of them. Although there are usually several questions where I'll spend a more significant amount of time thinking about it. </p>

<p>Math ~7 - 10 mins remaining: Math isn't my strongest subject and I don't really know any tips and tricks to quickly solve problems. I can usually finish a majority of the problems straightforward, but there will be some where I'm unsure and will be guess + checking or plugging in numbers from the answers. </p>

<p>Reading <5 mins: I'm really struggling with finishing this section. Sometimes I don't finish, but when I am able to, I'll finish with only a couple of minutes left. I find myself working to the last seconds sometimes.</p>

<p>Science ~5 - 8 mins: I can finish with around 5 mins left to go. I'll usually struggle with a couple of questions on one passage, which probably drags down the time a lot.</p>

<p>Science: I run out of time.</p>

<p>Math: About 10</p>

<p>Reading : About 5</p>

<p>English: 3min</p>

<p>English: 10-15 minutes left</p>

<p>Math: Cuttin’ it close, maybe a minute if I’m lucky</p>

<p>Reading: Around 10</p>

<p>Science: Also a toughie, but during my last practice test I had 2 minutes left haha</p>

<p>English: 5-10 minutes (closer to 5)</p>

<p>Reading: 10-15 minutes</p>

<p>Math: At least 30 minutes</p>

<p>Science: 5 minutes</p>

<p>Can you tell I’m a math-y person? :slight_smile: These numbers are all from what I can remember from the two times I took the ACT.</p>

<p>English-25 min left
Math-30 left
Reading-10 left
Science-3??? (always panicking at the end XD)</p>

<p>From the June ACT I took (only a little practice beforehand):
English - 15 minutes left, I had time to recheck all the answers
Math - 15 minutes left, I had time to recheck all but 3 questions
Reading - 5 minutes left :confused: I’m a slow reader.
Science - 8 minutes left, got to recheck about half of them</p>

<p>English ~ 10-15 minutes
Math ~ 20 minutes
Reading ~ 5-10 minutes

<p>I seem to be the type of person that rushes a LOT during these tests to get all the questions in…</p>

<p>English~20 minutes
Math~15 minutes
Reading~5-10 minutes

<p>I literally finished each section with seconds remaining. But I was able to answer all the questions, instead of just bubbling them in.</p>
