How I Coached a Student to a Perfect 36 On The ACT®. Tips & Tricks for Improving Your Test Score

[@sadman2090]

I feel hopeless and dumb the first time I took the act I got a 15 and people are complaining about a 33 idk what went wrong I was tired that day and I didn't even practice beforehand.

[@CorbinTinnon]

Chase Cooper it's all right i'm sort of in the same boat i got a 35 and i'm so pissed

[@sadman2090]

jerry avocado how are you pissed? You got a 35 be grateful.

Chase Cooper i got a 19 it’s okay YOU GOT THIS

[@sadman2090]

Beyoncé Knowles Thank you, you got this too 👍🏽.

[@francescacedeno2030]

Chase Cooper it’s so close to a 36

[@Oogabooga007]

I went from a 32 on my first ACT to getting a 34, 35, and 36 on the following practice ACTs (under realistic conditions of course). I'm hoping I can get at least a 34 on the one of Saturday to have a shot at selective schools!! Wish me luck!

[@thejamesmadsen]

I went from getting a 24 to getting 36’s in every section. Took a lot of work though! I had to take it 10 times. The more ACT resources created the better! Good video.

my issue is 100% math. i took it back in 7th grade and got a 20. now, an upcoming senior, im sitting on a 23. ive got a 33 on english, 29 on reading, 24 on science, and a 17 on math 26 super score.) every single time ive taken the act i have gotten a 17 on math :(

Oh my gosh I just realized I posted this over a year ago😅 to give an update, I took it October of sophomore year and made a 29 with no practice besides researching what to expect.

@@saketnaik1 I made a 32 (composite and superstore) once I actually put in some effort and worked on strategies and such. And after such a crazy year and a half, I’m going to just keep it and not pressure myself to do more now that I’m going into my senior year! Brooke’s videos definitely helped me a lot though for college admissions and the ACT. It’s crazy to look back at this as a rising senior.

[@sir_aken9706]

You're an impressive tutor.

[@Foodude]

Tests like this are such a silly way of judging people's capabilities. The only thing that was tested was this person's ability to study. No learning whatsoever.

[@stretchysilver283]

Well having good studying abilities is really important to learning more in college.

[@davidlaidbiggestfan212]

@@stretchysilver283 You aren't learning, you just putting info in your brain so you use it for few hours or few days

[@Zavendea]

RinYeet it definitely is learning- if you’re able to consistently get high scores over the course of many weeks and tests, you have learned the material.

[@lefthanded5473]

@@Zavendea sorry to burst your bubble, but the material tested in these tests are basically completely useless in the real world. And the worthiness of college is debatable. As stem is really the only profitable degree you can get, and schools don't do a good job of teaching stem subjects. (This is why jobs want experience even if you have the degree).

[@wardog211]

Zavendea i think RinYeet is trying to say it’s more like you have familiarized yourself with the material. So it has more to do with your dedication to getting a 36 and getting used to the way information is presented on the ACT than your actual intellect.

[@littlebabyowl2742]

I self studied and got a 35 (36 reading and english, 35 science, and 32 math)... is it worth retaking to try for a 36? The only thing I don’t like about my score is the 32 I got on the math section... i was hoping for at least a 34

[@fightmeonclubpenguin7748]

Little Baby Owl my god.. how did you get a 36 on writing and English? I’m the opposite and get 36 on math but like 32 33 on reading writing :(

Rosa VR the course is video based but also includes some downloadable worksheets and a copy of the ACT or SAT guide book (in US). It is not a class and does not include a dedicated instructor. We do provide email support for any questions about the course or its contents.

I got 7 right outta 12 for math pretest for the act on there website. I don't know what to do. I live in a area where it's hard to go to somewhere that lets you print and I can't afford to buy a book. I don't know what to do and I wanna have a great score so I can get in college

[@SupertutorTV]

Amy-- if you can't print but have access to the internet, you can still take tests from the computer and write down your work, etc. If you have the will to improve, you can find as many resources as possible online and also check out your local library-- many carry ACT prep books.

If you dont have a reason to have a "perfect" score, just do your best. Anything above a 21 Comp score is generally a good score for most colleges.
