I recently heard some opinions on social media, that had me questioning my score. For context I have a 34 superscore, 32 math, 35 English, and 34 reading. I heard online that any math below 34 for schools like chapel hill looks bad because the act math is apparnelty much easier than sat and so thereforeSAT is valued more in context. Now I found this ridiculous but let me know if anyone has any insights on this, maybe I’m just coping for my score but idk.

Does anyone have any predictions or any new patterns they’ve seen in the ACT questions for the different sections is the last couple of months? Any help would be appreciated!! We got this guys 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I just finished mine and math was quite difficult and I’m wondering whether anyone who’s taken both can say if it’s around the same difficulty as the real ACT.

I’m going to a college UW volleyball game the night before and my mom says it’s a bad idea. But i just wanted to relax and not stress about it and take my mind off it. is this really a bad idea?

I'm taking the ACT on Saturday, and I've been preparing through Wiley's Online Test Bank. I just completed 25MC4, and I was wondering if that form is a somewhat accurate representation of what the actual test would look like. I'm happy with my score on this one, but I'll try to do form J08 tomorrow to avoid getting complacent. Does anyone know how accurate 25MC4 is? I'm not trying to do more review tomorrow than I need to, so if the form is accurate enough, I can rest a little.

Thanks for any advice, and I'm also down to give advice for English/Reading if anyone wants some!

You didn't do as bad as you think you did

how similar are the topics given in the practice test on the official site compared to the actual test? im fully aware they are already gonna be different kinda so you cant just study the test instead of the math, but like how many questions of different topics am i supposed to expect compared to the practice test?

like when i look up help videos that go in detail on questions i'll probably see on the ACT i can't help but notice some of them i can't recognize in the slightest despite taking the practice test multiple times 😭

like i saw something about finding the area of a trapezoid,,, like i fear i dont have that memorized in the slightest cuz i didn't practice and study it at ALL cuz i saw nothing of the sort on the practice test 🥹

I got a 31 on the ACT, and before taking the test, I guess I gave it permission to send the scores to my top 4 colleges. I have a 1510 SAT, but I'm really scared that these colleges will see my 31 and will take it into account even if I tell them not to consider it. What should I do?

I’m terrible at math, I take the next test in December and I doubt I’ll get better by then. What’s the best studying method for English and reading

Hi guys! Im trying to study for the ACT, but U can’t find any practice tests to do like how the SAT has an entire bank. Any tips?

This was my most recent score distriubtion for sept. act. I was wondering whether anyone knows exactly how I can practice number and quantity and geometry. Is there a question bank or something I can use for this?

Hi! I’m applying to colleges for Fall 2027 and currently have a 31 ACT. I’m planning to retake it in December to hopefully get a 34.

If I apply Early Action, can I still submit my December score if my application is pending or if I get deferred/waitlisted? Would it help at all?

I was also thinking about emailing each college to ask about its specific policy on this. Would that be a bad idea?

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!

So I’ve been prepping like crazy since I got a 27 on September, and I know that was like a curveball for me because that’s not my skill level, but then today I took 25MC3 and I got this score. Can anyone tell me if that test is accurate at indicating how id perform on an actual ACT? I don’t feel pressure during standardized testing and I timed myself each time.

the experimental passage usually the 2nd or 3rd one right? i’ve heard online that some people have gotten the experimental on the 1st or 4th but is that true

I run a site that builds and maintains free educational activities. I'm making some for the ACTs and this is the first. Wondering if anyone studying finds it useful? If so, feel free to ask for more topics to cover.

so happy to be done w standardized testing !!!!!!

As title says. Any recs or free websites?

I'm looking for study materials, or strategies that actually will make a difference. Free resources are especially appreciated. Thanks!

I am taking ACT oct 17 but on standby. Its says first come first serve?
Any experience on this to share? Will there be availabilities or usually its full?

So I guess we are done. Didn’t know they could do that. But here we are.

I am in an ACT prep class, I’ve taken the entire practice ACT once my freshman year and got 24 composite. I feel that my ACT prep class isn’t truly helping me though because the teacher that teaches it is only really qualified to teach science but she’s teaching all of the sections.

So far we’ve studied over science and math and I feel like my scores aren’t improving on my practice tests that much(the highest shown for science was taken in sections instead of all at once). I want to get the truly best score I can get so I can get into college to put as little strain financially as possible and I’m unsure how I should study beyond this class.
