I graduated from High School in 2003, i jut want to get a better score because I know I can, however, i need to brush up on my math skills. If anyone had been in the same boat please let me know where i can go to prepare for the math section, like sample problems etc so i can practice and refine these skills. Thanks a bunch!!!

I am a former Mathematics Educator. A number of my former students lowest scores were in mathematics. I suggest that you "borrow" a copy of your Algebra 1 text from the high school that you attended and take the chapter test at the end of each chapter. This will allow you to assess where you need to begin work in that subject. It would behoove you to then "trade" for a geometry text and do the same thing. The same process would help in most other subject matter that you are weak in. This ALWAYS improved the scores a great deal for my former students. Have a GREAT WEEKEND!!

there are several study books available. some of them include both math and verbal but you can also buy ones that focus just on math or verbal.
the college board puts out a book of 10 previous tests.
i would recommend princeton review. i believe there is a CD-ROM that comes with the book. I used this when i prepped for the SAT and found it to be really helpful. they go through the basic math concepts you need to know and explain them. then they have practice sections for those math concepts. they also have practice tests you can take on the computer.

I guess I'm not on the same boat, but I think you should buy some books preparing for ACT math, and some practice tests, if needed.
By the way, there are some learning center offer prep-courses for ACT.

the hassle-free act of taking the try back usually improves your score. it variety of seems such as you have positioned a large variety of attempt into attaining your ivy league objective. Why no longer take the try one extra time just to place your techniques comfortable. That suggested, you probably did a stunning job on the try, and are very plenty in the try score variety an ivy would desire.

Try these sites...if they don't help then just look up sample math problems on a search engine!
