I am going to be an upcoming sophomore and plan to take the ACT after my sophomore year and the PSAT this year. What is the best way to prep myself? Prep book? Tutor? Classes? Also, what is the best ACT or SAT prep book out there?
More detail: I hope to go to Stanford University and plan on taking a considerable amount of honors and AP classes.
i am going to be a junior this year and I am going to start preparing for the ACT. I want to get a 30 or higher. What is a good ACT prep book to buy?
So i got an act prep book from the princeton review and I read it from cover to cover. I even took notes on the tips they give u in the begining of the book but i personally find them useless.
So i have just been doing practice questions but it doesnt seem like im getting better at any of the subjects.
So is there something i am doing wrong?
and should I keep doing the practice questions?
thanks in advance!
I’m writing an SAT prep book. I need to find SAT practice tests for which I will have the publishing rights. Obviously, these must be original material.
I read and worked through an ACT prep book.
Now the test is tomorrow…any last minute tips for taking the test?
I’ve just bought a Princeton review prep book for the SAT Biology. But, I don’t know whether the level of difficulty that I will face on the real SAT test would be about the same as my Princeton SAT prep book practice test. Can anybody tell me? Thanks a lot!
I’m actually considering to buy a test prep book but I don’t know which one I should choose..

My high school is giving a practice SAT this weekend.
I would really like to take the practice exam but i have a problem.I have semester exams next week so i was planning on studying all weekend.
should i go take the exam or should i stay at home studying for the semester exams?
also the test is administered by Kaplan not Collegeboard. So can the practice test really predict what i will get on the real SAT?(Im using the Kaplan SAT prep book. but the types of questions in the practice exams are a bit different from the ones on Collegeboard study guide.)
Before I take my second and final SAT I plan to take 16 practice tests. I take the 12 Kaplan Practice Tests every Thursday and Sunday. So far I’ve done eight of them: my lowest score is 2030, my highest is 2140, and my average is 2080. When I finish these tests I plan to take 2 Princeton Review Practice Tests and 2 Collegeboard Practice Tests. On my first SAT I studied with the Official Collegeboard SAT Prep Book and the Princeton Review Cracking the SAT and got a 1900. I want to know what I should expect my actual sat scores in 40 days to be? Should I expect higher or lower than my average of 2080 on the actual SAT? I really want at least a 2150, I’m applying to Columbia for Early Decision in less than two months, and also Stanford and NYU in December.

also, has anyone taken the real sat and kaplan or other prep book tests? how do your scores compare?
AND I did awesome on the vocab and reading and writing parts, but when it came to the math, I had like half of them wrong!!!! There was a lot of stuff that I didn’t know how to do, and I want to learn (I’m in 11th grade, but I’ve always been bad at math) What is the best wway to learn? Would an SAT prep book help? or should I hire a tutor for math?? what do y’all think?
