Can someone please explain what I am doing wrong? I’ve been taking the ACT almost every single time. I’ve only missed two dates. I am a senior and the ACT is over for me. I learned that if you keeep taking it, your scores will improve. I’ve only increased my ACT composite by 3. It went from a 21 to 24 in only 3 years. I brought a book to study. I did study my brains out. Every day for two weeks before the test, I sat in library in a quiet room and did the pratice test. And every single day, I began to improve until the day before the actual test date. I took a lot of time out to study. I went from a 25 to a 31 composite. I timed myself and didn’t cheat. I also didn’t go back and do the same test questions. I did 10 ACT tests-English, Math, Science, and Reading. I followed as if it was an actual test. The only factor that was different was that I was by myself and not with people on the actual test date. I don’t understand why I am still getting a 24?
It feels like I wasted my time for studying and paying for the tests. I just don’t get it. I don’t think I was too nervous. I did all the normal things like eat a healthy diet, sleep well, and be relaxed. I did feel confident, I was sure most of my answers were correct. All the tests, I did try both ways. Try to be confident and try to be not. I tried almost every technique I could come up with. Still nothing.

Okay, I signed up for the ACT in October. I need to change my test date to the December one. It is pass the dead line to register October date, but NOT the December one. Would it be possible for me to change the date WITHOUT paying a fee, or paying the fee AGAIN? Please don’t give me a link to the website because I already looked up information there and nothing they had helped me. Please answer! THX in advance!
Thanks for your answer, but I tried what you said and they wanted to charge me dollars to change it. I don’t understand this!!!

Hi,

I just took the Feb 6th ACT test, and got a 21 (Composite). I want to take it again to get a 25+, this because I want to go to UGA. My weakest parts were Math, and English. The first time I took it I used the Kaplan Book. I studied for roughly two weeks. My question is how should I study this time? I want a 25+. The test date I am looking at is September 11th, 2010. But I want to start studying soon, this because I have a lot of work to do over summer!!!!

THANKS!!!!!!

I’m scheduled to take the ACT on Saturday June 14th. Something came up, and I really can’t spend 4-5 hours of my day taking the test. Therefore, I would like to change the test date to September, because I know they offer it then. However, when going on the website, it lists June 2008 as the final ACT of this year, so I cannot change it to any other date.

What gives? I would like to change my test date to another time, but it won’t let me. Why not?

CAn I add a test later or must I do it at the test centre only?
Plus,I took maths 2.Is there any harm if I take maths1.There are colleges that take maths 1 in place of maths 2 and I think I’d do better at it.So,will they use the higher mark or will i be considered inadequate for taking a lower level test?
I mean,at colleges like Cornell or MIT(which takes maths 1 in place of 2,i chkd with their website)
Alex L.my qn was:can I add another subject test to a test date for which I’ve already registered?

I registered online for 2 SAT subject tests and decided to take a third on the November 7 test date. On November 24, when the test scores are released online, will that score report be updated to include my third score, or will it still just have the two I registered for (in which case I would receive a full score report including that third subject test by mail on a later day)?

Okay, so my little sister who is taking her ACT Test early has to get an Photo ID before the Test Date. Where can she get the ID?

Her school doesn’t have IDs for some reason so, where can she get one?

She is 12, so please don’t say get a FAKE ID!

I registered for the ACT on February 26, 2009. I am supposed to take it tommorrow. I didn’t print a ticket immediately after registration because the website said I could do it up to the morning of the test date. But now, when I’m loggin in, I can’t find my ticket anywhere. There is no evidence that I paid .00 already. The test is tommorrow. What do I do?

I’m sorta in a dilemma right now. I have taken the ACT and got a 32 composite score, taken the SAT II (Subject Test) and now I am considering retaking the SAT II or take the SAT I. The next date for testing is October and that’s the only test date from now until college registration, so I only want to take either SAT I or SAT II.

I am trying to get into a school like USC, UCLA, or Stanford, so I don’t know if my subject scores will do any good for these schools. Here’s my scores:

Biology E… 630
Mathematics Level 2… 760
U.S. History… 650

What do you think I should do? Should I retake the subject tests or take my first SAT I?

Thanks.

I signed up for the December test, but was able to take it on the October 24 date and get a "test date change." I knew they would take longer to process, but I’m curious as to HOW long they will take.. Has anyone ever gotten an ACT test date change and if so, how long was it before you were able to view your scores online and/or receive them in the mail?
