<p>Hi, im a senior who is going to take ACT this Sept....which is less than 3 weeks left from today... </p>

<p>I feel so depressed and scared that i wont score 30+ on the ACT...
So far, I only took two complete tests from PR and some section practices from PR...</p>

<p>the first one is what I took about more than a month ago. After taking the first one, I didn't have time for 2-3 months...so I started studying from a week ago. </p>

<p>So for the first one, I got math:31, english: 25, reading:22, science:26.
then for the one that I just took tonight, I got math: 31, english: 27, reading:25, science: 26.
Both tests are from the Cracking the ACT. </p>

<p>I believe that I can improve my math score up to 34 or so... and for english, I guess that if I pay more attention to the grammar and stuff I can improve it max to 29-30. </p>

<p>HOWEVER, I am so worried about Reading and Science. My Science Score wont go Up!
And I cant seem to finish them in time and exceed about 5-9 min for each. </p>

<p>I at least want to score 29 on Reading and Science.
Is there any good way or tips to raise the score for these 2 sections?</p>

<p>And is the Cracking the ACT test or PR's test actually harder than the "real" ACT?</p>

<p>Some say that “real” ACT is easier than the PR’s…is it?</p>

<p>Use the Real ACT Book to see where you stand not PR.</p>

<p>The English section should be the easiest to improve. I used “Cracking the ACT” and my English score went up from a 28 to a 33 from the first to second practice test. I spent a significant amount of time analyzing my mistakes on my first practice test and it helped tremendously with my second practice test. Make sure you UNDERSTAND why you got each question right or wrong, don’t just assume you know how to do the problem because you made a “stupid mistake.”</p>

<p>those scores are from Craking the ACT from Princeton. Well and I made 26, not 25 on the reading. I made mistake in grading…anyhow, i still have low score…:frowning:
I have no idea how to improve reading and science…</p>

<p>I took a test on REAL ACT and got 33 on the Reading…but lack of time about 5minutes…</p>
