ACT — Using mock tests as a measurement

A routine

Take the first mock before any preparation The composite tells you how far you are from a target, and the section spread tells you where to spend the months.
Sit English, math and reading together About two hours and five minutes on screen without a break, in that order, with the calculator you will use on the day.
Add science and writing only if you will take them They lengthen the sitting by up to 80 minutes; rehearse them only if a target programme wants them.
Answer everything No penalty applies, so a blank is a certain zero; keep the last minute of each section to fill gaps.
Review by reporting category Fix the categories with the largest weight first; the English conventions category alone is nearly two-fifths of that section.
