NMSQT Study Tips

Hello everyone,

I am a junior that would like to attempt to study to get a NMSQT scholarship to hopefully help financially to attend UChicago or Northwestern. Last year I got a 1250, with a 690 in reading and a 560 in math, giving me an index of 194. This year on the ACT with little studying as a practice run, I got a 33 on the ACT, with a 36 in English, a 34 in science and reading, and a 26 in math (I did not finish). I live in Iowa, and believe the index is slightly below 220 to qualify for a scholarship. I am planning on using Khan Academy to help study. Anyone have any other sources they would recommend with 3 weeks left/ any recommendations for how long/ how they would study?

Do the official practice tests (link below).
