<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I am going to be taking the ACT test this September and I really need help, especially in science section. I was thinking about taking the PV course for the ACT. Is it any good???</p>

<p>I am going to be taking the ACT test for the first time, I took a practice test and got a 25. I know, not a very good score. </p>

<p>I am not really familiar with the test and I just want to know if once you send your score to colleges do all the scores show like the SATs. (i mean the scores for more than one test date).</p>

<p>from what i understand the ACT is a lot less study-able than the SAT, so you’d probably better spend your time just doing practice tests to get the timing down. and no, you can pick which scores to send.</p>

3

<p>how does score-sending work?</p>

<p>do you get the score in the mail and then photocopy and send it to colleges?</p>

4

<p>Hahaha… no…
Give me 5 minutes and I can change my scores to a 37 doing it that way. You have to register and specify colleges that you want to send to. Then the ACT company sends a report to those colleges as well as to you.</p>

5

<p>can you also send after recieving the score for a fee?</p>

6

<p>then how do you choose what scores to send and what scores not to if ACT sends the scores to both of you at the same time?</p>

7

<p>Just don’t choose any schools to send it to when you register. You can choose to send a test later on when you are satisfied with your scores. And yes you do have to pay a fee.</p>

<p>thank you girls or guys
i just got my score from a practice test from PR and i got a 22. I know, a really bad score, the best thing that i had was my writing which i got a 12…</p>

<p>so back to my question, is the princeton review class for ACT good or will one gain more by just doing practice test?
I know that there aren’t many practice tests out there so…</p>

<p>well, theres really no point in continuing this thread now since the test is only like 3 days away. But i’m using the PR book right now myself. The reading…holy crap…in the red book i understood what i was reading but not in the PR -_-
i hope i was just brain dead. You should have taken the tests from the Red Book (official guide) rather than PR.</p>
