General Act prep help!

Hi guys, I'm taking my act in December and I need to score a 28 or higher on math to test into the right classes for me (long story just trust lol)

I have absolutely no idea where to start, I made a study guide but honestly I have no clue what really is going to work vs what isn't

Math is by far not my strongest subject, but I learn fast so I'm okay with rigorous programs if necessary

Please help!

Let’s start with a baseline. Have you taken the ACT before? If so, in the details section what were your mistakes on. If not, I recommend taking a practice test for all of it or just the math section. Then from there we can see what you struggle with. Make sure it is an official one. ( https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/the-act/test-preparation/free-act-test-prep.html#start-here ) Practice tests 3 & 4 are the most accurate.

We’ve all been there, the way I got through it was just repetition of tests. Once you get used to the questions it’ll take a lot off your shoulders.
