5.0 out of 5 stars MY FAVORITE ACT PREP, April 21, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Peterson's Act Success 1999 (Serial) (Paperback)

I used 4 ACT Preps and this one was by far my favorite! It did lack in some capacities as compared to the other texts but it definitely filled a lot of holes that other test preps didn't even approach which is what I think ultimately led me to score a 35!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, January 10, 2003

This review is from: Peterson's Act Success 1999 (Serial) (Paperback)

The book and CD were very great but the ACT is too hyped up. You can receive a great score without ever buying a book to help you study.

1.0 out of 5 stars Inaccurate, not even close!, October 24, 2001

This review is from: Peterson's Act Success (Peterson's Ultimate ACT Tool Kit) (Paperback)

Before i took my ACT last june, i studied with this book, it was awfully inaccurate, with the practice tests, my average scores ranged from 17-21 and on the real test my scores came out 25-26! This October I am taking my ACT again and obtained a real ACT sample test - which i scored very high on ranging f rom 25-34. With this book, my scores are still around 17-21.... i wonder about that! The sample tests are extremely inaccurate, they do not portray the ACT accurately or even resemble the test. Plus, i've found many mistakes in every section. It's nonsense and not worth buying!
