PSAT/SAT/ACT Books Add comments

Here we recommend two best books for preparing ACT, “Barron’s How to Prepare for the ACT” provides insightful preparation knowledge and test-taking strategies with competitive depth; “The Real ACT Prep Guide” is the only Official Prep Guide from the makers of the ACT.

Barron’s How to Prepare for the ACT

This book covers each section of the ACT exam, which are Math, Reading, English, and Science. It also has the practice exams with a bit harder than the actual exam, so it can give the student an edge over the competition, it is an excellent book recommended by successful test-takers and test preparation instructors for improving students’ score. Barron’s can help the diligent, dedicated student crack the ACT.

In English and Math section, the book has a grammar review and math review together with examples and exercises. In Reading section, the highlight is that the book gives the student strategy and tactics at the beginning of each ‘Review and Practice’ section and great tips. In Science Reasoning section, it contains a ‘Words You Should Know’ section and other relevant, useful advice for tackling the Science Reasoning section.

Barron’s encourages the students to actively participate while studying the book; it is definitely a good choice.

The Real ACT Prep Guide

This book is from the makers of the ACT, which comes with 3 REAL ACT EXAMS! It also gives the fullest explanations of the correct and incorrect answers. Parents looking to help their kids get prepared should buy THE BOOK.

This guide is essential because it is the only one that provides authentic ACT questions. However, it does not give the student insightful strategies about how to handle the test. Therefore, use this book strictly to practice the test and estimate the score.

In order to help students to ace ACT, we recommend to use “Barron’s How to Prepare for the ACT” to study test-taking strategies and review each section completely, to use “The Real ACT Prep Guide” to practice ACT test with time limit and estimate score, find the student’s weakness, focus on it and improve it.
