putting my trust in you girly, I need a 33 on ACT. I take it March 12, 2024 trying to get a 33+ on reading.

Good information, but this could have been made in a video about 20 minutes long instead of over 53 minutes. The length loses a lot of listeners and lessens the impact of the video, not to mention it would have been easier for you to make.

My strategy has always been the following: : if I had not read the article, which answer would let me know what the article is about without too much details.

Tysm for highlighting this strat. I’m doing a lot better on practice tests now! From averaging 26s to 29-31

Your videos are awesome! 🤩 Could you do another video on how to ace the ACT Reading section but in a digital format? This would really help students taking the test digitally, especially international students. Thanks so much!

Would you be able to get an high school diploma if you scored an18 in the reading portion ?

[ThomasWright-xt]

Teacher here, how do you utilize similar strategies as the ACT is going digital now and not on paper. The system my school utilizes doesn't allow for highlighting the text. Thoughts?

[fabidk]

How use the dictionary, because English is not my first lenguaje and this this specially is very difficult for me

[piiipooo]

the strategy is great, but how should we do this with the digital;/on-computer ACT?

[alexanderamaya]
