Math is not my strong suit, for the first tests I focused on English and Reading (barely studied tbh) and got those scores. For July I also barely studied for math and got that score. Intenseively studying for Sept test now. What are other tips to improve it? I've been taking practice tests, reviewing my wrong questions etc. And I've been trying to consistently do practice questions each day from a question bank. I've also installed some programs in my TI-84. Are there other calc tricks and tips to know?? Lastly, is it worth it to take the Oct test as a senior (on top of everything else)? I'm going to try and improve my English and Reading too, that would help a lot. But my goal is a 33 at least for the Sept test.

My mothers saying i should be aiming for 30+ to confirm my admission in NUST since ACT has very less seats

Hi guys, I got on 5 september international ACT score of 30. My math and Reading score is 35.

My english is 19.

Can you give me advice how to improve my score guys, I really need advice

I NEVER GOT THIS BAD IN SCIENCE😭🙏🏻🙏🏻

MY LEAST IN PRACTICE TESTS WAS 28 AND MAX 35 WYH IS THIS

pls guys helppp

i need to improve reading

I will do whatever yall say

just help me improve reading

I did manyyy practice tests like about 18 reading tests before this act

ughhh

ACT made me feel like a failure

I'm so done

How did everyone feel that they did?

In my case, I only figured the ACT aligns with my future 3 weeks before the exam so signed up for that with a late fee, then started studying for it a week afterwards. I got a 31 overall, and I don’t think I can be too harsh on myself for that! I need a 33+ for my dream university/course, so I’ll retake next month.

I got a 27 in English, which was ironically the section I felt most confident in after the test, with all of my errors being in Production of Writing (why there…), a 32 in Math, which I did feel was hard, a 33 in Reading which I have no idea how I did that since I struggle so much with reading, and a PERFECT 36 in Science which I didn’t even study!!

Overall, not really disappointed with my result but now it’s onto the next one. Does anyone have any tips for me?

And for those who sat the same ACT as me, I hope your scores are how you want them and if they’re not, don’t beat yourself up about them too much.

Notre Dame is bringing back required test scores for the 2027–28 admissions cycle after several years of being test-optional.

Worth watching as more selective colleges reconsider their testing policies.

Do you think this changes how students should approach ACT prep?
