<p>So... have been an avid ACT taker my junior year, taking it three times throughout the year, and am in a bit of a predicament.</p>
<p>I started off taking them in October, without much hopes other than learning the format.
My scores were as followed:
C:29
E:29
M:32
R:22
S:33</p>
<p>Then, I prepared by taking a few practice tests and got the following scores in February
C:28
E:24
M:32
R:25
S:29</p>
<p>Wow, so much for scores improving the second time due to familiarity.
And then, I prepared by taking 5-6 practice tests and got the following scores in April:
C:30
E:25
M:35
R:24
S:30</p>
<p>I have been continuing to take practice tests this summer in preparation for the ACT in September. I have done all of the tests in the red book, the pamphlets released by the ACT in 2011, 2010, 2005, and so on.
But, to my dismay, I haven't seen much improvement. I have tried different strategies but feel kind of lost in knowing where to go for help. So far, the best scores I have gotten are as followed
E:30
M:36
R:25
S:36</p>
<p>Math has stayed at 36 ever since the April ACT, so I'm not worried about that, science has been typically in the high 30s, and the others fluctuate. English has ranged from 23-30 and Reading from 22-25. Are there any websites that give good review and test-taking strategies that I might not have tried before?</p>
<p>I am at a loss of what to do and am about to give up preparation because I feel like my scores will never get any better.</p>
