5.0 out of 5 stars
As mighty as the picture on the cover suggests!,
This review is from: ACT Assessment for Brainiacs, 1/e (Peterson's ACT Assessment for Brainiacs) (Paperback)
I used this book to study for a re-take of the ACT. My first score was a 28. I only worked through about HALF of this book and then got a 33. I'm absolutely certain that if I finished the book and took the test again, I could have earned a 36, but the 33 put me in the 99th percentile, so I figured that was quite sufficient! It helped me get a $50,000+ scholarship. I cannot recommend this book more highly.
