<p>Since early March, I rigorously studied for the ACT at the pace of one practice test out of the Red Book or from Princeton Review's ACT book per week. I progressed from a 30 composite score to a 33. I carefully look at the answer and explanations to make sure I know why I missed questions. I also pinpoint trouble spots and focus on them. Do you think this is a good plan by doing one test a week or should I slow down knowing I improved?</p>
<p>keep going man. why would you slow down? practice makes perfect. take as many practice tests as you can without overwhelming yourself.</p>
<p>Is the Princeton Review book beneficial?</p>
<p>The Princeton Review book has tips and drills for the weak areas, and the practice tests are equal in difficulty and type as in the Red Book.</p>
<p>I’ll consider purchasing it then. Thanks for the recommendation. I was somewhat apprehensive regarding it because I didn’t find their version for the SAT to be too effective.</p>
<p>I used the red book, act online prep, preparing for the ACT booklets and dissecting the ACT to raise my score from a 21 to 29.</p>
<p>Use Cracking the ACT, it really does a thorough job and helped prepare me very well for it</p>
