This book mimics the way students prefer to study and helps them to set short-term goals to improve their ACT scores. The trendsheets help students to identify their weak areas and play a key role in guiding each student to develop an individualized approach to improvement. THE ACT TESTS YOUR SKILLS Let’s work on skills, instead of working on tests! INNOVATIVE APPROACH Analyze your ACT starts with an analysis of your test to indicate which skills you will need improve and provides worksheets to master those areas. While the book includes four full tests, its focus remains on a manageable approach to keep students motivated to work on their skills. FIND OUT WHAT TO STUDY This book is organized by areas that mimic the content of the ACT. Once you know in which area you made your mistakes, this book provides one-page worksheets to gain the needed knowledge and practice. More importantly, it will reveal the traps and curveballs in the ACT and the best ways to solve complicated problems. Watch for over 400 tips and rules in this book. PRACTICE TEST-TAKING SKILLS This book teaches you test-taking skills that make a measurable difference in results. It includes numerous exercises to decrease mistakes from one worksheet to the next. Use the suggested skills to approach the test with confidence and experience. Once you are aware of what holds you back, you will learn to make it a habit to use these new skills not only during the ACT, but in college as well! FINALLY! TECHNIQUES FOR READING AND SCIENCE From inference and purpose questions to graphs, tables, and experiments, this book provides one-page exercises and drills to learn step by step how to get better in specific areas. Less than five minutes at a time, these worksheets can keep the attention of any student! KEEP STUDENTS MOTIVATED Setting targets to improve three points will help students to focus on the ACT one step at a time. Fast and visible results encourage students to continue their progress. Motivation is the key to improvement, and students will more willingly work on an area if they understand how much it affects their test scores.
