Science and Reading!!!!! Help!

Test Preparation
1

I am taking the September ACT in less than 3 weeks! I have been having trouble with Reading and Science. I got a 31C (32E, 32M, 30R, 28S). My goal is to get a 34 composite score AT LEAST. My reading scores have been volatile -somedays a 30 and others a 34. My science however is not improving that much and is staying around the 27-29 range. How can I improve in such short time? I feel I get very jumbled during the science portion… is there any strategy to battle that as well???

Have you used a tutoring service? Prepscholar might help. I’d use it if you are a senior.

Thanks @TooOld4School, but I am not sure I want to spend anymore money on my standardized testing stuff! Do you have any tips that you may have followed to improve your score?

How many practice tests have you done? That is the best way to improve. I’d get the Manhattan 5lb practice question book, ISBN 978-1941234501, they concentrate on the upper end of the range.

Thanks @TooOld4School ! I am looking at it!

Best of luck to you! Continue to spend most of your effort on the sections causing you the most problems
