Improving math score? 33 too optimistic?

Test Preparation ACT Preparation

<p>I need to improve my math skills over the summer to better my score this September test. Here is my current score:</p>

<p>C: 29
E: 31
M: 26
R: 30
S: 29</p>

<p>(9 on essay)</p>

<p>That is my 2nd attempt, both with no studying at all. I have time as an advantage this attempt, and plan to start studying ASAP. I'm worried because the highest math class I have reached so far is only Algebra II, and by this retake I will only have 4 days of Pre-Calc.. My "goal" is 33 composite (technically everyone's goal is 36, but I would be happy with a 33) I have the "Real" ACT book with the 3 practice tests. Anything else I should invest in? Focusing specifically on my math? Anything else anyone can suggest? Thanks guys :)</p>

<p>Just like you said… practice problems all summer long. You’ll get a feel for the questions if you do a couple each day. You’ll definitely be able to reach your goal by September.</p>

<p>Get the Princeton review: cracking the ACT. This book, particularly the math section, provides useful tips and insights that work well on the exam.</p>

<p>Just brush up on your math (I suggest using Princeton Review’s Cracking the ACT), and then work practice tests from the Real ACT. Make sure to time yourself and go over each incorrect answer thoroughly. Good luck :)</p>
