<p>^^ wait, so is PR not accurate in science?
I was planning on doing sum science sections in the PR book.<br>
Are the questions similar to the official ACT test or not? cuz I wanna practice w/ similar questions rather than do diff. 1s</p>
<p>Wait what is inferred by not accurate? As in easier or harder?</p>
<p>like not similar questions.....when ur doing the tests in the red books, u know wat the questions are gonna be like on the real test. Does PR have these kinda questions?</p>
<p>ahhh i am preparing for the september test...have two weekends to go! so far i am taking a break between sections</p>
<p>1st practice test:
Writing: 36
Math: 29 (WHAT?!?!?!) must get that up</p>
<p>i got 12 days to get a 32.5 (33) to a 33.5 (34). My breakdown was:
ENGLISH 35<br>
MATHEMATICS 31<br>
READING 32<br>
SCIENCE 32 </p>
<p>Any Advice?</p>
<p>Is the preparing for the act online booklet good? I'm just printing stuff out and doing that...</p>
<p>I also have the PR Cracking the ACT, and I got a 27 on both tests in their book. I'm currently using McGraw Hill's 2nd Edition 10 Practice ACT Tests.</p>
<p>McGraw seems to be pretty good. Except for that one science question where it had 10^-7 as larger than 10^-5. Other than that, it's been pretty good.</p>
<p>How many tests does the Red ACT book have in it? I would prefer to only buy the books that have practice tests in them only, not strategies or whatever else it may have.</p>
<p>Barron's was mentioned as the hardest. When you say "hard" do you mean that if I did 3 or 4 tests in Barron's and got, say, 30's and 32's on them, would that mean I could potentially get a 34-36 on the ACT on test day?</p>
<p>Or are they just harder, period?</p>
<p>Is there really trig in the math section or is it like SAT elementary trig?
what kind of math do you need to know? Alg1&2...</p>
<p>and pre cal</p>
<p>for math, you need to know pre-algebra/elementary algebra, algebra (I and II)/geometry, and pre-cal/trig (at least, those are more-or-less the subsection breakdowns for the overall math section)</p>
<p>Barron's for math & science. Break up sciecne sections and do them on the clock, say 6-7 minutes per section to get the pace down.</p>
<p>Gruber's SAT for math practice and work exercises. (Practicing SAT reasoning solutions makes the ACT math "easier.")</p>
<p>Just my $0.02.</p>
