<p>I have been through tons and tons of ACT books and have prepped myself immensely. I found, however, that there are good ACT books but most fail to do their job, which is to prepare the reader fully.
There are two types of books, 1) Content - For review of all concepts related to all 4 subjects 2) Strategies - to help you find correct answers
I am disappointed that many books fail in the content section. I found that only high school text books (Algebra, Geometry, Literature, Science) do a good job in prep. If I wrote a book on ACT prep I could do an amazing job!
Does anyone disagree with me?!</p>
<p>I agree I could write a book better than almost all act prep books. What ticks me off the most is when it is so obviously inaccurate. ex.) On the reading section of the mcgraw hill practice tests, the passage only has 65-75 lines. there are 90-100 lines on actual tests. seriously?!? come on.</p>
<p>Yeah, for Peterson’s ACT book, there are SO many errors with the answers, typos everywhere, and the answers are very ambiguous too -___-</p>
<p>Which books did you use? Princeton Review and the Red Book (obviously) I thought were very similar to the actual test, and the PR has a good content section.</p>
<p>the redbook is good.</p>
