A tip I learned from someone who was in the testing room with me: yes it’s typical to bubble in C all the way down when you’re guessing, but ACT expects that so they’re less likely to put the possible correct answer there. So bubble in A or D when you’re guessing. You’ll have a better chance of getting the correct answer that way.

[@RishabJain]

Great! This is wonderful. I did some research and it looks like E/K is actually the best option. I made an updated video here, that includes this tip: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXjZgox3armjg9k

Marh tip: the answers for all math questions are listed greatest to least, or vise versa. Plug and chug "C". If the answer is lower, try the least... aka "A" or "E". If it's neither then it's corresponding "B" or "D".

[@frozenvolcano859]

@@ja416 yeayea- Question: 3x=15. What is x? A) 2 B) 3 C) 4 D) 5 E) 6 Lets pretend we didn't know the answer to this. You would first start with C. (4) 3(4) doesn't equal 15, it equals 12. Now we know C is less than 15, we will now try E (6) 3(6) also does not equal 15, it equals 18. So if C is less than the answer and E is more than the answer, then In-between must be answer (D) (5) This stradegy only works faster than the human mind if the problem is harder to figure out, for example (14x^2)/(5-2X)=30.5 Also though, you could use a function on calculators like the TI-84 Plus to calculate this. • Press the Math Button, then press the up arrow on the white arrow wheel. (You should see an option called Numeric Solver) • Press enter 2 boxes show up. The 1st box is one side of the equation, the other box is on the other side of the equation. So in reality it looks like this Box1 = Box2 You can watch a video on YT that can explain it better than I can.

Thank you so much for the genuine help! I've taken the ACT a few times by now and one of the most helpful tips is to go in very comfortable with the test itself. Being anxious or fearful during the test can significantly reduce accuracy, and fear often times comes from the unknown. So basically, get comfortable with the ACT! While in the car on the way there, it's helpful to just remind yourself: "I know what to expect and I'm going to try my best". Good luck to all the test takers out there! Praying for you guys!

Thank you for your honesty, and congrats on getting a 36!! Very impressive! I think this video really helped and I am taking the ACT TOMORROW!! :O My tip: Bubble the same letter if you have to guess at the end. I guessed all A's on my first test. Do not guess C, it's too common and the test writers know that. Do not bubble random letters, you have a better chance of getting more right if you guess the same letter.

[@SamOfTheSmokies76]

Here is my ACT story. I've taken ACT 4x and about to take it a fifth. First time, I took it in my junior year and got a 19. Second time in my junior year, I got a 20. Third time in my junior year, I got a 22, but notably, I got my reading and English up by 5-6 pts to 25 and 26 respectively. Problem is my math and science remained both at 19 for the past three tests. The last test I took though, I got a 23. English went down by one, reading went down by 4... but my math went up by 3 and science went up by 6!!! If my reading hadn't gone down and my English and reading had at least stayed the same, I would've gotten a 25, which is what I am currently aiming for. I take it in four days and my goal is between a 27-30, a 36 would be lovely, but for me as a person who struggles to take tests, it's most likely not realistic, but hey you never know. One tip Ik is that reading and science test the same skill and they shouldn't be but at max 1 pts apart. I still haven't gotten there but hopefully soon! Wish me luck and I'll be back with my new score soon :)

Taking mine in 2 days. My overall goal is to get my score to at least 32. Although I've done a lot of studying and practice I don't expect to do great on this one. I'm prepared to completely fail and I'm fine with that. I'm seeing this first one as a trial run for me, through this I will learn how to A. Pace myself, and B. Learn how to prepare better. I plan on taking it as many times as I need to until I meet my goal. That's what's great about this test. You can take it as many times as you would like and then choose what test to show the colleges you're applying to. You just have to opt out of the program that automatically sends the scores to them. Knowing that has caused me to be a lot less nervous, which in turn will hopefully help me during my future ACT's.

Thanks for these tips man! I have a 23 currently and am taking the test this Sat. Oct. 28, so I am going to use your tips and see how well they work for me. Wish me luck and I'll let you know if my score improved!

[@SamOfTheSmokies76]

@@chelsushi Good luck to you! Unfortunately I found out like 2 days ago that my test got moved to December bc something was going on at the test center/school I was going to take it at, so they had to reschedule it so now I'm taking it in Dec. Kinda ticked off, but I guess I get more time to study

[@EpicElash]

May God rain down a plethora of blessings for you my brother Rishab!!! You are an inspiration, and I know have blessed countless other people by igniting a fiery drive to become remarkably exceptional students to ultimately achieve their dreams. You not only ignite a blazing fire, but also inspire people to faithfulness in discipline, consistently putting in the hard work especially when you don't feel like it, and ultimately help create world-changing individuals. I pray for an overabundance of success for you and for God to help you keep doing what you're doing!!!

[@anvachaos3814]

I'm resting at a 21 rn, and I came for the math tips since it's a 18 rn, but my tips as an autistic person taking it at least are: Don't let science intimidate you, I found it mainly to be just graphs and pictures. If the research topic disinterests you, plug something else in to be engaged Read the question first, then the first 2 paragraphs, then the the last 2, then skim the rest. Mark unknown words, underline details that just seem funny to you. The english portion will never match stories or how you talk. Pretend a robot wrote it. It is stiff. It is concise. It will get annoying. Math.. Your calculator is your best friend And finally, study however works in your head. Need to study all month? Do it. Study in your car on the way there? Put on a test prep audio and listen on the way? Need noise? Go to a playground. Music? Spotify. Need to sleep on it? Cup of tea at 11pm after an hr of studying will help. Make sure to eat a wakeup snack take the label off your water bottle, grab a jacket, and breathe. You've got this

[@aliakca4487]

I got a 25 my first time taking the ACT 5 months ago, but I was sleep deprived and forgot a calculator and a pencil lol. I have the test in 2 days, I just watched this video, so I'm going to see how well I can improve my score. I'll update as soon as I get my score back. Wish me luck lol.

the tips about science are super helpful so thank you! i would recommend bubbling page by page (at least this works best for me) because my brain tends to reset every time i flip a page anyway and when i bubble at the end i usually feel so pressed for time that it takes me longer to flip the pages and fill in the corresponding bubbles!

I study tip I learned from my AP psychology class on cognition is that studying an hour or two before you sleep can help you retain (& retrieve) that information better the following morning because of the process of consolidation. :) (This doesn't necessarily mean cramming!)

[@inconnn]

something like reading over notes for a bit before you go to bed?

[@Kxa-jx9re]

@@inconnn it can be, but not always-- for me it would sometimes be reading over my textbook for new material. or watching/rewatching youtube videos (like mr sinn which was who i referenced for psych a lot)-- just really anything that gets you to learn material (it could even be playing a quizizz game or something like that)
