First, getting a 29 is nothing to be ashamed of! It is a great score.

The most important thing you can do is analyze your mistakes and learn from them.

When you review each section write down if the error is: 1. careless or 2. truly something you do not know.

For example, if your errors in English are all comma related, then you must memorize your comma rules.

If you are making careless errors (bubbling in the wrong answer, tiny mistakes in math, not reading and answering the question ACT is asking) consider slowing down. It is often, but not always, these types of errors that prevent students from reaching their target score.
