wakeup,

since your daughter is the slowest test taker, ACT might not be the best test for her. Let her try SAT - she will have more time to answer each question and it might help her.

Also, I talked to my son about ACT and he told me that non-math sections are impossible to finish if you read the paragraphs first and then answer. Your daughter might not be following correct strategy while taking the test.

My son is very quick at recall and a very fast reader, so for him to say that he would not have time to read everything is big. He said that he basically reads the questions and then looks for a appropriate place in the text to answer.

Math is a different animal entirely. My son said that Math just takes practice and knowledge of all the facts.

I hope this helps and your daughter can increase her ACT (or she might try SAT).
