Revised and updated to reflect the current ACT Assessment tests, this manual and its accompanying CD-ROM offers high school students comprehensive preparation for a major national college entrance exam. In-depth reviews cover all test areas: English, Math, Reading, and Science. Because the ACT also offers an extra and optional, half-hour-long Writing Test, the manual includes a writer?s guide specifically tailored to meet test-takers? needs. In addition to subject reviews, this book contains an overview of the ACT, a diagnostic test, and three full-length practice ACTs with all questions answered and explained. Students will find additional practice exercises in all subjects, study advice, and test-taking strategies. The accompanying CD-ROM simulates test-taking conditions for the actual 2 hours, 55 minutes ACT test. It presents computerized versions of all tests in the book plus automatic scoring.

I have owned many Barrons books over the years, and they have all been excellent. However this one certainly misses the mark. It has three practice tests that are all more difficult than the actual ACT. The English section is essentially useless to prepare for the ACT because the questions do not correspond to the general style of questions used on the actual test. I was expecting alot more this book for $35, and it fails to deliver. For only $20, I would highly recommend "The Real ACT Prep Guide," a book published by the company that makes the ACT that will provide practice exams that are closer to the actual ACT.
