What's your target ACT Math section score? And how does that compare to the rest of your scores?

There are test prep books that you can look at (unfortunately you'd have to purchase them) But I know that the ACT website has practice tests available online for each subject so if you haven't, definitely check that out! If you're still struggling, then after-school tutoring and study groups (especially study groups omg do NOT be afraid to ask your peers for help) are AMAZING.

I got a 36 on the math sections both times I took the test, and I think the official ACT prep guide is the most helpful thing you can get. I just grinded practice tests and looked over the answer explanations that were given. For concepts that I was really stuck on or forgot about, I would just go on YouTube and find related help videos.
