McGraw-Hill's Conquering the ACT Math Review

McGraw-Hill's Conquering the ACT Math
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
preparing for the ACT? this is a great book to get, as the math section of the test is where one can improve most by studying. the questions on the practice tests mirror those from real tests (from the official ACT guide) - yet the explanations are far superior to those in the official guide. they are concise, straightforward and easily understood - so much so that my son wished he had this book as a study guide for his math classes.
the glossary alone is worth the purchase price - as it highlights all the formulas one should know for the exam. the book also contains a section that covers the concepts the ACT will test - so one can quickly discover their weak areas and focus their efforts most productively. even after the exam, the book will retain its value as a quick and easy math reference.
if you buy only one prep guide - this is it. mcgraw-hill also offer a book with ten practice full tests, that i would recommend over the official guide that only contains three tests.
good luck to all test-takers!

McGraw-Hill's 10 ACT Practice Tests, Second Edition (McGraw-Hill's 10 Practice Acts) Review

McGraw-Hill's 10 ACT Practice Tests, Second Edition (McGraw-Hill's 10 Practice Acts)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I used this book along with the Real ACT book, the Sparknotes Guide to the ACT book, and the Dummies ACT prep book. I found that this book was one of the more helpful ones. I was skeptical at first to buy this book, as the ACT content can get distorted when it isn't written by the actual ACT writers. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the practice tests in the book resemble the real ACT tests greatly. The writers of the 10 McGraw Hill Practice ACT (as stated in the introduction) analytically scrutinized the content of the real ACT and emulated it in the 10 practice tests. The only defect is the answer explanations. The explanations are very succinct and sometimes you don't understand why you got the wrong answer. But that is not the case with all the answer explanations. In order to significantly improve your score, taking practice ACT tests greatly helps. Therefore, this is one of the best resources to use to improve your ACT score.
This book helped me get a 33!
