The Real ACT Prep Guide: The Only Official Prep Guide From The Makers Of The ACT

I'm a college student and I coordinate an ACT tutoring program for the inner-city high schools and we purchased 5 copies of this book. So far, it's been a very good resource. I felt that the best way to prepare for the ACT exam is to PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE -- so we just work through problems from the exams and go over the answers. And this book comes with 3 REAL ACT EXAMS! PERFECT for what we're doing. :D

Not the best review or test taking tips; ACT is not going to give too much away. The value of this book is in the three practice tests it contains. There is no substitute for practicing on the real thing. Answers and detailed explanations are included.

Please note that this book is exactly the same as the 1st edition. So if you can find the 1st edition cheaper go for it.

If you can't find the first edition, then get this one bacuse it is well worth the price. This book has 3 tests (though they are a bit dated- I was hoping for an updated set of tests, but meh-no biggie), answers and explanations. While the tests are valuable, the explanations make the book cheap, since with CB's book (Official SAT Study Guide) you need to buy the Onlone Course for explanations ($70)or buy some guy's (who no one knows) solution manual here on Amazon.

In conclusion, great prep book for the ACT, and the SAT sux vag.

This book meets my expectations.

It is in very good quality.

It is very useful for preparation for ACT.and timely arrival added to the usefulness.
