Took first ACT practice test today... how much can I improve and how?

<p>My SAT Superscore is 760CR 680M 690W... this has been achieved through months of practice tests (and I did significantly better in math on some of them).</p>

<p>I applied to William and Mary two days ago and, right after, I decided that I should take the ACT in December so I pulled up the free test and took it today.</p>

<p>My scores:
34 English
31 Math
35 Reading
26 Science
32 Composite</p>

<p>Many of the questions that I missed were in the few because I was running short on time. However, this score was much better than I had expected, and this test just seemed much easier than the SAT... Anyway, my question is, how much do you think I could improve by December and how should I go about doing this (what books do I need)? I feel like I mostly just need a review in math (trigonometry) and I need to familiarize myself with the science section. My goal is a composite of 34. Do you think this is possible?</p>

<p>I would practice science the most in your case. Science tends to be the one subject where I have the least amount of time since it is different than the subjects tested on the SAT. Just get more accustomed to the test and your time will speed up.</p>

<p>At that range, anything is possible. Science is probably the hardest to take cold. Take practice test after practice test and get a feel for what the ACT wants. Get used to going through the questions really fast and not reading the passages.</p>
