ACT Study Guide

Full lessons and strategies for new Enhanced ACT content – Our curriculum is fully updated to reflect the Enhanced ACT. We offer updated guidance that considers the new test's timing and scoring changes. Test content introduced with the Enhanced ACT, such as Reading's new "Visual Quantitative Information" passages, are thoroughly covered with effective strategies and plenty of practice material. ‍

‍

Skill-based progression – Early lessons focus on foundational knowledge, and later lessons progress to concepts and strategies needed for the most challenging ACT problems. This structure allows for intuitive customization of book materials to student abilities and needs. ‍

‍

Direct integration of proven instructional strategies – Lessons and practice are thoughtfully organized to take advantage of distributed learning, interleaving, and retrieval practice. These pedagogies are proven to increase student engagement and retention. ‍

‍

Modular organization – Lessons are grouped into units, which are designed for standardized 90-minute 1-on-1 sessions or 2-hour classroom sessions. This consistent structuring of materials allows for predictable pacing and easier customization. ‍

‍

Thorough practice with test-type questions  – Each lesson is reinforced with practice that closely matches official ACT questions. There are more than 500 test-like problems in both English and Reading, including a full test’s worth of English passages and two tests' worth of Reading passages after every single unit in each respective section. For Math, we have more than 1,000 test-like problems, which is more than 20 tests' worth of content to build and reinforce skills.
