Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ACT exam?

The ACT is a standardized college admissions test widely used in the U.S. to evaluate high school students' readiness for college-level work. It measures skills in English, math, reading, and science reasoning, with an optional writing section, helping colleges assess applicants alongside high school GPAs and extracurriculars.

How long does the ACT test take?

Without the optional writing section, the ACT lasts about 2 hours and 55 minutes (plus a 10-minute break). With writing, it extends to around 3 hours and 35 minutes. Plan for a full half-day commitment, including check-in time.

How do I register for the ACT?

Registration is completed online through the official ACT website. You will need to create an account, select a test date and test center near you, and pay the registration fee. Be sure to have a recent photo of yourself ready to upload.

What is the best way to prepare for the ACT?

Everyone's different, but most experts recommend spending 10 to 20 hours total on ACT prep. Start with a Prephow ACT practice test to see where you stand, then focus heavily on your weak areas. Practice tests under timed conditions are essential because pacing is a major part of the challenge. Many students combine self-study with resources like practice test platforms, books, or tutoring. Working through full-length tests is better than drilling random questions because it helps you build endurance and get comfortable with the overall rhythm of the exam.

What are the four mandatory sections of the ACT?

The four mandatory, multiple-choice sections are: English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science. Scores from these four sections are averaged to determine your Composite Score.

How is the Math section different from the others?

The Math section is the only one that allows a calculator and covers topics from pre-algebra through trigonometry. It is also the longest section in terms of time, giving you math 60 minutes to complete math 60 questions.

What is the "Science" section, and what skills does it test?

The Science section does not test content recall (like biology or chemistry facts) but rather tests your scientific reasoning and data interpretation skills. You are given passages presenting scientific data, charts, and conflicting viewpoints, and you must analyze them to answer the questions.

How can I send my ACT scores to colleges?

You can send your scores to up to four colleges for free when you register for the test. If you need to send scores to more schools later, or after you see your scores, you can order additional score reports for a fee through your ACT student account.

What is the highest possible ACT score?

The highest possible composite score on the ACT is 36. This is the average of your four section scores (English, Math, Reading, and Science), each of which is also scored on a scale of 1 to 36.

I just took the ACT prep course from Prephow and honestly, it made a real difference. The way they broke down the English, Math, Reading, and Science sections actually stuck with me especially their strategy for tackling those time-crunch problems on the Science section. I felt way more confident walking into test day, and I'm glad to say I passed. If you're prepping for the ACT, I'd say it's worth checking out.Retry
