How should I prepare for the ACT?

<p>I'm finishing my sophomore year of hs, and I'm starting to worry about "those" tests. What study books should I get? I never got to take the PLAN, so how exactly does the ACT work? What is the best way to prepare? Should I take a prep class? etc. etc. etc. :P</p>

<p>here’s a webpage that tells a lot about the ACT (links on the left give more info)

<p>From personal experience, I think if you can score high (30+), most prep classes are too easy and are a waste of time. As for study books, I think they’re all more or less similar, so as long as you go through them thoroughly and actively learn from them, you’ll be fine.</p>
