How did you approach your first ACT?

<p>The ACT snuck up on me and I have it next Tuesday. This will be my first time taking it so I am doing some studying and I am getting a tutor. I plan on taking the ACT in April and June as well. I want April to be a very good score because the ACT in June is the day after final exams so I am not sure how much time I can dedicate to it. If worst comes to worst I can still take it in September and still get my results back before early admission. So I still have plenty of options although I really want to do well on this ACT as a confidence booster. How did you approach the ACT when you took it for the first time? Did you take it to get the feel of it?</p>

<p>I approached it for fun as a seventh grader for Duke TIP. It was nice to get a feel of it. Got a 25 then, and on my most recent one, I got a 30, so it was nice having prior experience, even if the seventh grade test doesn’t matter for college purposes.</p>
