Is the ACT approaching for someone in your family? If you're a homeschooler like I am, you're likely familiar with ACT preparation. If not, you soon may be.
The ACT can seem daunting to parents and kids. Parents likely remember having taken it themselves. Some take it multiple times, while some are lucky to take it once-and-done. For many, though, it can feel intimidating and scary.
If you're like me, you likely have multiple ACT prep books at your disposal. The big, huge guides with practice tests and answers, suggestions, etc.
Acing the ACT by Elizabeth King is not one of those huge books. This is a handy, pocket guide of 146 pages filled with tips and reminders.
Inside the book are suggestions for memorizing, how to strategically move through the test, and ideas for answering certain questions. Each section of the ACT has tips and suggestions specific to those categories.
This guide is easy to read, is to the point, and isn't daunting or intimidating. I highly recommend parents of high schoolers to equip themselves with this guide to help you along the way.

Great tips for the non-math sections of the ACT. Didn't read the math portions. Author has fresh tips, something that is difficult to offer in the oceans of material written about college test preparation.
