<p>Are there any special guides that focus on the critical reading section? My daughter needs help with this section.</p>
<p>People have different techniques that work best for them. The best thing to do is grab the Real Act Prep book from the Library (or purchase if you must) and try them out on the different reading tests. The scores you get from the 3 tests in that book are very similar and quite accurate, since they were former ACT tests.</p>
<p>Some of the common techniques:
-Read the passage first, then answer the questions
-Skim the passage, underline key details, then answer the questions
-Skip the passage, answer the questions, referring back when necessary</p>
