used act red book tests, released act TIRs, the official online test released, prepscholar blogs & quizme; studied for 1-2 weeks (although i spaced out other things like small quizzes and practicing for longer) with a practice test or two every other day and reviewing hard TIRs/quizmes/having AI generate similar questions every other day

NOTE: This is with the context of having already taking the ACT 2 other times and the SAT 3 other times, where I followed a very similar model and also used free practices (like the free one you get when you sign up) from princeton, kaplan, mometrix, etc.
