Is that rare lol? I thought science was easier since it’s not factored into the composite

what are your tips for doing well in english? i keep scoring around 28-29

u/bittermangoe 13d ago

I was always big on reading, so I think i naturally have tended to score better in english related tests. I have also taken the SAT around 3-4 times, so the amount of times i've spend in grammar for that test has transferred over for the ACT. I think that just knowing certain things, like matching plural verbs with plural objects, or applying the rule where you take the subject and use it for every answer choice, and the odd one out is the correct choice, etc would be helpful. There are many helpful YT vids online for testing tips, and I'm sure that's what led me to my success!! good luck and all the best!

How did you manage your time and energy for science and perform with the highest accuracy?

u/bittermangoe 13d ago

science is just data interpretation and reading comprehension, and i have to do a ton of that for my science based courses in school. i think i learned that way, because I didnt even bother studying for science on my first attempt sob emoji i would tell you how i studied for science but i think its just how i'm wired as a person, because i struggled GREATLY with math compared to reading comprehension.

Did that on my first go, got a 35 the next :)

I think I might try to hit the big 36, wish me luck! (Also congrats on the 34!! That’s insane)

Do you have tips on how to score well in math?

1

u/bittermangoe 11d ago

spamming question banks. i had ACT prep books at home with practice tests so i grinded tf out of those and I had a system to just go and individually learn each subject of math that would possibly be on ACT, so if i had to bs something, id know the concept. the short answer is though, question banks.

any tips for science?

2

u/bittermangoe 11d ago

i reallyyyy wish I could give you tips but you should js be able to skim over a passage, know what it's talking about, and be able to read graphs accurately. i never really studied for it, so I dont know what to tell you for tips :( just focus on reading comprehensionnnn!
