<p>I took the ACT in February and got a 32 (33 math, 33 english, 31 science, 31 reading). I studied by going over the material and taking a lot of practice tests. I just took the SAT and got a score of 2110, and I have no idea how to improve that anymore so I think i'm just going to retake the ACT after summer in September.</p>
<p>What should be my plan during the summer to prepare myself to get a 34+. I've done a countless number of practice tests, and I don't know how else to study. If anyone can please give me some advice or post their own study schedule, that would be great!</p>
<p>Thanks for any help! :)</p>
<p>@aquaelmo OMG how did you get a 2110? How much did you study? I’m taking my SAT in October and need to get at least a 2000 for scholarships?</p>
<p>You can get scolarships w/2000 SAT??!! Where? lol. I took one of those beginner prep classes which really did not help. After that I started taking practice tests, and for evey one that I got wrong, I checked the answer and made sure I knew why it was right. I did much better on my practice tests than on the real one though. :/</p>
<p>Well the scholarship that I want requires that. How many months before your sat did you study before you took your sat?</p>
<p>about 3 months of super light studying then 2 weeks of more hardcore studying</p>
<p>Science and reading are the hardest ones to improve on. The questions on the reading section are fairly straightforward with a lot of the questions needing direct information from the text. I would advise to skim through a passage quickly, read the questions, and look back for the answers. The science part is also similar to the reading section where you look back at the charts or graphs for the answers. I would advise to read the titles of the charts and graphs and go straight to the questions, as you will have no time to read the descriptions.
For math, I would advise to speed through the section in around 35-40 minutes and spend the rest of your time meticulously checking the answers. </p>
<p>Bumping this up because I got a 31 on the ACT with some studying and I only have once more chance to get a 34+</p>
