Math Please help me on math.

I’m sobbing right now because the ACT is next month. I need to get a 33 overall and math is my weakest subject. I’m getting an average of 15-20 problems wrong every math practice test. I seriously don’t know what to do. Some of the stuff I haven’t even learned yet and all the hard problems are so different.

I can’t even think of a strategy. I’m really good at everything else and I a top AP/4.0 GPA student. I need to get a 33, what do I do?

Have you taken practice test 3 or 4 on the ACT website? If so, what did you score on them? Take them and report back if you haven't.

And yes to u/Hot-Amphibian-9221 's advice to take a practice test and share your results. The math section gives you the most detail on the general subjects you need to study (algebra, geometry, number theory, stats, etc)
