Area ACT Scores Increasing

In some areas ACT Scores are increasing. In my experience students who take the entrance exams (SAT and ACT) twice have a better chance of getting their best possible score.

If you think about it it just makes sense. Although a student may have taken 100 practice tests, there is nothing quite like the real thing. If you can try and take the exams at the same locations both time you take them. This way everything is familiar to you. The more familiar you are with your surroundings the less anxious you will be. Also try getting to bed early a couple of nights in a row leading up to the exam this way your body is ready for that early wake up call. Also, as far as the exams go. Try and take both, twice. Some people ace the ACT and bomb the SAT and others do the opposite. Check to see what the schools you are applying to prefer and what they require.

The ACT - SAT Conversion chart is a big help when trying to figure out how well you scored.
