I got a 35 on my English section, BIGGEST tips:
-periods and semicolons are the same thing, never change one to the other
-almost never choose dashes (-) unless there was/is one earlier/later in the sentence
-watch plurality!! You would never say “they was” or “he were” so make sure those match (sounds easy but so many people miss this during the test.. read the full sentence to be sure!)

Good luck everyone 💓💗💞

trying to turn my 29 into a 32 tomorrow, wish me luck

I'm trying to raise my score of 19 to a 25 or 26 by studying for 2 hours every day for a month. I've been consistently getting 23-28 on my practice tests but when the real test happens I feel like I panic and do worse :( I got a 22 on my PACT but only a 19 on the real so I hope that next test I can raise it after hours of practice

Been studying for three months (2 months of 4hr studying everyday, 1 month of 12hrs every week) and my ACT is tmr...base line without studying was a 23, let’s hope I get up to the 30’s!!!

The hardest questions for me are the organizational questions and the overall idea of the passage questions.

[dannyrios]

I'm more than four years late to the hype. I jumped from a 16 to a 29 throughout my time studying.
