ACT… three letters that bring fear and stress to many juniors and seniors. Warning students: THIS TEST IS NOT A JOKE. Take it seriously, okay?
Now I could tell you to study in advance, don’t cram (thanks Heather!), or stay calm. These are all good pieces of advice, but sometimes they just do not work. One piece of advice I will give you is to ANSWER EVERY QUESTION! Your ACT score is based only on the number of questions that you answer correctly. Finally!!! You can take a test that doesn’t count incorrect answers against you.
People will say to take your time on the ACT. Sometimes, this piece of advice is not realistic though. The ACT is long, has a lot of questions, and a lot of reading. A majority of students run out of time. Start filling in those bubbles if you realize you have run out of time. It’s not a good idea to leave 15 answers blank. Like I said, wrong answers do not count against your score. You never know, you may be a lucky guesser.
