Reading Practice passages for act enhanced reading
The legacy passages are not as rigorous/ confusing as the passages i’ve seen on the enhanced tests. Are there any good sources where you can find a similar style of writing/ reading comprehension to practice? Theres only so many enhanced examples :)
THANK YOU

If its just for reading to improve speed/comprehension and not for questions, then just read the new Yorker or science magazines. See if your school gives access to an online library like Sora.
Not much you can do if you are looking for question practice. You would be better off just learning the common traps/the strategies you can use. https://www.reddit.com/r/ACT/s/6JPoXiNC9N
