ACT Studying
Answered

I am 1 week away from my ACT. I got a 28 composite on my practice test with a 36 on the reading section and weaker in math science and english. What should I focus on and study before my exam next weekend?

Thanks!

Focus on your weaker areas. My biggest thing with SATs/ACTs is you have to learn how to take the test rather than learning all of the material(while that part is still very important). Don't totally stop studying English however. Before your test quickly review grammar rules, etc.

Focus on math and science; if you already are stellar in reading, focus on what you're weak at.
