<p>I can score a 36 on math but struggle on english making a 21-22. What is the best way to boost my score? I take the test on April 9th. Also is the Real ACT prep book (red book) beneficial or is there a better choice out there?</p>

<p>There’s no way you can get a 36 on Math but a 21 on English.</p>

3

<p>you could easily increase your score to a 27+ I would assume. Buy the Princeton Review, IMO, their English section is fantastic.</p>

4

<p>Take practice tests in English, but most importantly, read the reason for your incorrect answers so you don’t keep making the same mistakes.</p>

5

<p>Study basic grammar and rhetorical skills. ACT English is pretty easy.</p>

<p>@mtv22 one of the most ignorant comment I have ever seen post online</p>

<p>@mtv: Have you even taken the test? Only basic comprehension of the English language is required for a 36 on Math. Ever heard of people who are very good at math, but not-so-good at writing? That’s how.</p>

<p>As for how to improve English scores…</p>

<ol>
<li>Practice.</li>
<li>Identify mistakes. Understand why you got it wrong. Learn and practice that specific rule.</li>
<li>Identify your biggest areas of concern. For example, you might be good at comma usage, but bad at subject-verb agreement. Spend extra time on these areas.</li>
</ol>

<p>I’d recommend the Princeton Review book for English.</p>
