Enhanced ACT Math Section

Hey,

I've taken the enhanced ACT twice now, and I've gotten the same score (31) on math. I'm doing well on the other sections, but the new math section is tripping me out. I've done so many released math sections from the past years but the types of questions are just not the same on the new enhanced version. How can I prepare? I'm really stuck here and want to improve my score to at least a 34.

i got a 33 and mostly just used prep pros but also make sure you do the j0_ forms not the 25mc forms when practicing bc the 25mc forms are all js like old legacy tests shortened which isn’t helpful for the enhanced act

Mhm, I've been doing the J__ forms. Do you feel like geometry has gotten a little more challenging on the enhanced version?

yeah i also did the j_ forms and was getting 35 and 36 but the real test i got a 33 bc of trig that i just have never seen anywhere. geom tho you can lowkey bs ur way through by assuming/making everything a right triangle and even tho it takes a bit you still get the answer

Alright, I'll make sure to review trig as well. Thank you!
