What would the be the best way(or how you prepared) for the ACT and SAT tests during the pandemic?

I know this may be a bit broad, but I decided to take the ACT and SAT, and was wondering what the best way would be to prepare especially during the pandemic since I can't go out to tutoring sessions or something, thank you in advance!

Hello! I never took the ACT, but for SAT even before the pandemic I just used Khan academy and took all the practice SAT test I could. Its and absolutely amazing resource and you should definitely use it. Hope this helps!

Take practice tests! The single most important factor in standardized test success is not tutoring but practice. Where are you now? What do you need help with? Know what you need to work on. Look up test-taking strategies and try them out to see what works. Figure out what pace you go at and how to work with that.

Hi! I'm doing the same thing- taking the sat and the act- and what I did is just take a bunch of practice tests. I also did one online tutoring session per test with a tutor from my town, but we basically just did practice questions and he helped me with some questions I didn't understand. You got this!
