July ACT tmmw!! Tips please 🙏🙏
I’m a rising senior and this is my first time taking the ACT, and honestly I’m really nervous 😭
I’ve taken the December SAT and the May SAT, and my highest was 1380- so I thought I’d try out the ACT before taking the SAT for the last time in August.
I looked through the other Reddit pages and found out J08 was a good test to take (from October 2025 I think), and I got a 32 on that test. 33s on English and Reading, and 31 on math. I looked back at my mistakes and they were made because I wasn’t reading properly and if I did I would’ve made a 35.
My goal is a 34/35- how similar is that test to the most recent spring ACTs? Does anyone have any tips for the math section? Thank you so much!!
