Studying is not improving my ACT score.

You know, studying does not always work for improving scores. It did not work in my D’s case. People posting on cc are not a randomized sample and if you google it, you’ll find there is no documented evidence that test prep works.

Have you tried the SAT? There are differences between SAT & ACT and sometimes students do better with one or the other, which was true for my D.

FWIW, her ACT score was 29 (not sure if she even reported it to colleges since her SAT score was better) and she got some good admissions and unexpected, generous merit aid.
