How to get more consistent scores? And even a 35/36?

Test Preparation ACT Preparation

<p>So I'm taking the ACT next week, and I've done quite a few practice tests (5-10) and all the ones from the booklets that the ACT gives out every year.</p>

<p>My scores vary a lot, however. Whenever I take tests from McGraw Hill's 10 practice tests, my English scores are a lot lower (30-31), but I've heard that they make really bad tests and I've found a lot of mistakes in them.</p>

<p>In every section except for math, I have scored between 30-36, but I usually score between 32-34 (in Math it's usually higher).</p>

<p>What can I do to get more consistent scores? Should I find a lot more tests online and do those, and try to do them in small periods of time? I also have used tests from my sister that I could go over, or at least work on reading the passages quickly.</p>

<p>Also, any tips for test day? How to avoid dosing off?</p>

<p>Thanks for any help</p>

<p>Simply do more tests and try different sources. My DD has gone through 6-7 books with over 20 timed practice tests until she got consistently 35 in a few months. Then she got 35 at her first ACT test.</p>
