ACT

The Official ACT Prep Guide

The most important book to practice from is The Official ACT Prep Guide, which comes from the test makers themselves.


For additional theory and practice we would recommend the following:

  • Kaplan ACT Premier (2016-2017) which comes with 8 fairly challenging tests
  • Princeton Review: Cracking the ACT test with 6 practice tests. This perhaps the most realistic simulation of the real ACT test and so is highly recommended for practice.
  • Barron’s ACT. This is a little over the top in some areas as far as difficulty levels are concerned. For the students that are aiming high this is a must.
  • McGraw-Hill 10 ACT Practice tests. And just for pure extra practice, this book serves up relatively realistic practice tests, 10 of them to be exact.
