Test Preparation ACT Preparation
1

<p>is the kaplan '05 book a good source of preparation for the test?</p>

2

<p>I don't think it's great. It doesn't really give any tips...just "workouts." The workouts are basically just sections of the test with a couple of small explanations. Use the Princeton Review instead.</p>

3

<p>It's an okay book if you're not aiming too high. You can't expect to get a perfect score on that book alone (especially since it tells you to guess on the trig, which isn't that hard anyways).</p>

4

<p>The Kaplan tests are a poor representation of the real test. I'd say they are harder than the real test. I liked PR.</p>

5

<p>it is much harder. best example of this: 20 on the kaplan science section, 33 on the actual act.</p>

6

<p>Yep the science and math sections are highly unrepresentative.</p>

7

<p>I liked it! I gained 7 points in reading and the tips in the back are nice.</p>

8

<p>Use PR and the official ACT guide instead.</p>
