Extra ! Extra! How to manage through ACT!

"He who opens a school, Closes a prison."~vitor Hugo 1800s. Can you interpret what the author's purpose? In order to look deeper in its meaning you must first practice vocabulary, grammar, open your mind and play with its alluded contex clues. This quote like the ACT is difficult to understand; not impossible. In order to strenghthen your skills in math, reading, and other subjects, you must Pre-Pare!!

From my first time experience taking the ACt, I can assure you that you will take it more than once unless you're a mega genious. The ACT gives a small amount of time for such a long test that to be able to pass the test you would need to improve your reading to a college level. Expand your grammar and vocabulary skills. There is no way but to study! study! research! Reasearch?! yes! find out how long each section is, the directions to save up time, and use an old ACT format online to practice.



Even though it is not assured, most rooms are cold and empty. you might not feel as comfortable being in a white four wall freezing room but have a positive mind and actitude. food is very important! you will have a 10-minute break wich will help you relax and take your mind of the test. the test is more than 4 hours if taking the essay portion..SO TAKE SNACKS!! Take advantage of the writing even though it is not mandatory you can have extra point by taking it than not. the test does not deduct points for wrong answers so you may take educated guess if necessary.

Like you must know not everyone is reputable at all the subject. if you are good in math study for reading so it wont affect your score too much. For instance, Iam exceptional when it comes to math and even though i studied for the reading it wasnt good enough.
