How Much Prep for a Newcomer?

<p>Hey guys I have a question. I have never taken the ACT, I have taken the SAT and did not do so hot. I am a strong student and I feel like I can do well on the ACT with prep.</p>

<p>Is it possible for me to get a 34+ in this span of time?
Will the summer be enough time for prep?
How long a day should I prep?
If I do well on the ACT will it hurt my chances if I dont do the SAT?</p>

<p>When are you taking the ACT?</p>

<p>

No.</p>

<p>Practice! I know that’s so cliche but it works. I suggest getting a study book or two. If the college accepts both ACT and SAT send your best scores, unless they want all. Most of the time if they want all the scores they use your highest scores. I think it is possible to get a 34+ if you study and are truly dedicated. When I say dedicated I mean spend at least 30 mins a day studying.</p>
