This review is from: Crash Course for the ACT, 3rd Edition (College Test Preparation) (Paperback)

This book is basically amazing! It is written by a man who's gotten a perfect score on the ACT over six times and he takes the test every time it is administered so that he can learn more about it each time. If you are a student who waits until literally the week before to start studying for the ACT, I HIGHLY recommend this book. It provides helpful tips (e.g. the fact that the answer "its'" should never be chosen because it is grammatically impossible) that help you master the ACT! Also, it is spot-on about what you should do to get through the test without running out of time.

I bought at least 4 other test prep books for my daughter. The others are gathering dust, but she is actually using this one. The book is easy to use and not intimidating like some of the other big books. The tips are practical and logical. I don't know how she'll score on the test, but if she raises her score even one point, the book will have been worth it.

This review is from: Crash Course for the ACT, 3rd Edition (College Test Preparation) (Paperback)

My son took a Princeton Review practice ACT and got a 30 - 29, 29, 31, 31. It was a solid score and we hoped for the same on the real thing. He studied a bit but basically counted on reading this book a week before the test. Well, imagine our surprise when he brought up three out of four scores and directly attributed it to the book: 29 to 32, 31 to 34 and 31 to 36!!! We highly recommend this book to all college bound students.
