<p>Best one in my opinion: testive.com It’s indivualized, calculates your scores, shows the q’s you need to review, and shows how to answer questions (for math anyway, I haven’t tried the other sections yet).</p>

<p>Oh, and I have the blue book (but it’s for the SAT), red book, and both PR books, as well as every ACT app in the Android and Apple stores</p>

<p>I forgot, I also have the official ACT online prep, but other than the two practice tests, it’s useless. Worst $25 I spent, I could have gotten another book with 10 practice tests from Amazon! If you haven’t bought it, don’t bother.</p>

<p>Hey, yomyomf. Can you tell me a little about how you approach the ACT science section? (How you move through the passages, etc.)</p>

<p>I coach students on the ACT, and would be happy to advise you if you can give me a sense of what you are doing now.</p>
