<p>I have until now to the September and October ACT to prepare. Today I took my first practice test without any preparation and received a 29 on English and a 34 on Reading (I have yet to grade Math & Science). How many points could I possibly raise these two scores (for example, could I get a 32 on English or a 35 on Reading with 2 months of preparation?) </p>
<p>You <em>can</em> get a two point increase in English, and an one point increase in Reading but you have to seriously practice. Get all the practice exams, the Red Book, PR 1296. Take a section test everyday, grade them immediately and look at what you got wrong. See if there is a pattern in your mistakes. For example, are all the English mistakes in Rhetoric? If so, study Rhetoric in an ACT review guide.</p>
