Tutor Ted's ACT Practice Tests

I love this book. Perfect companion for "Tutor Ted's Guide to the ACT". Goes through strategies and helpful hints of test taking . The questions are clear and concise and easy to read. I like the levity of this book as this ACT topic can be a bit overwhelming for a student. Ted has almost made it "fun" to take tests.

I'm a student who has already taken a few real ACTs before purchasing this book. The English section of the tests in these books contain a lot of grammatical errors (ones that are not part of the multiple choice questions to change). I had to frequently pause the time and look to the back of the book for the real answer to make sure I wasn't going crazy. It was really frustrating. The watermark behind the practice tests are also pretty distracting. The essays they used for the English section did not represent the real ACT well. It was written poorly and without being proofread. The questions also lacked variety as almost every other one was "which is least applicable." I don't think the difficulty of these practice tests accurately matches that of the actual college board tests. Although I did appreciate their explanation for each question at the end of the test. If you're just looking to practice time management or get a very general overview of it this might do, but you would probably be better off using past versions of the real test. If you're looking for a study guide though, I do like their book on study tips for the act.

Totally fulfills the Tutor Ted promise of "non-boring test prep." Each of the three practice tests provides a answer key that goes above and beyond, giving memorable strategies for solving similar questions. The guide is written in a funny, personable tone that is authoritative but approachable. Makes a great partner with Tutor Ted's Guide to the ACT.

Tutor Ted has done it again! This companion to the "Guide to the ACT," gives you a real taste of what the test will be like. The practice tests are just the right length, detailed and helpful in practicing for the real deal.

Got this for my brother who's a senior and he said some of the passages for the reading and English they're going over in school for act prep. I'm an English teacher for high school as well- highly recommendsd

The science section is terribly inconsistent and useless

Anyone taking (or preparing to take) the ACT knows he or she needs to take practice tests. Tutor Ted's practice tests are realistic and a good supplement to the available "real" ACTs.

I was about to purchase this book when I realized that most of the reviewers only had two reviews, this and the companion book, "Tutor Ted's Guide to the ACT. In addition, most of these reviews did not say, "Verified Purchase." Be alert!!!
