The problem is where I am going to school they require and act test and you have to make a 20 ,I took it a few week ago and made a 16 ,I am proud of that since I have not cracked a book in 22 yrs but that is not good enough . my question is how can I make higher on it ,had anyone had to struggle to may a higher grade and what did you do:confused:

I just registered to take the ACT in June, I will be applying for nursing school over the summer. My school requires my SAT score or ACT score...I think I got around 1000 on my SAT's ten years ago, so I'm taking this to get a better score. I am very nervous. I think i will do well, since my mind is more focused compared to in high school, but we'll see. I am going to just take practice exams and study the format of the test, I think that will help a lot.

You can take it again!! and again if you want!

There are ACT practice CDs and books. I can't think of the name of it off the top of my head but if you google it i'm sure you will find it. Your campus bookstore should have it also.

Hi! I have to take it as well. I bought the Real ACT Prep Guide from teh makers of the ACT by Petersons for less than $20 and it has 3 practice test in it as well.

I also bought Cliffs Math Review for Standardized Tests for about $10.

You should be able to get these at any major retail bookstore.

Good luck I hope you do great on the ACT!
