    A bubbling strategy I’ve been doing is answering ~10-15 questions and then bubbling the questions I’ve done. This ensures I have time to bubble and don’t have to scramble to bubble at the end and also gives your brain needed breaks.

  • @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 :)

    Thanks for the video! I took a practice test a couple months ago, and got a 17 on my math section, 28 on Reading, and forgot what else. My composite score was a 23. I’m homeschooled until the fall, and I wasn’t doing my work as much (procrastination). I used to be an A+ student, but homeschooling and procrastination got the best of me. Since then, I’ve been studying like crazy to try and get a better score on the real deal. 10 hours from now, I’ll be taking the ACT. I’m gonna be honest, I’m quite nervous.

      @andymtb5714 Рік тому

      He just means at the end of each individual test. You're not allowed to go backwards and fill anything in after all the tests are finished. So do the test you're on, then when you've finished all the problems on that test, go and fill in the bubbles with the time you have remaining. Hope this answers your question!
