It summarizes general test-taking strategies, describes the content of each of the tests, provides specific tips for each, and lets you know what you can expect on the test day. Included in this booklet are a complete practice test—“retired”ACT questions that were administered to students on a national test date and a writing prompt—sample answer documents, and scoring instructions.  \nRead this booklet carefully and take the practice test well before the test day so you will be familiar with the tests, what they measure, and the strategies you can use to do your best.  \nACT is committed to representing the diversity of our society in all its aspects, including race, ethnicity, and gender. Thus, test passages, questions, and writing prompts are deliberately chosen to reflect the range of cultures in our population.  \nWe also are committed to ensuring that test questions and writing prompts are fair—that they do not disadvantage any particular group of examinees. Extensive reviews of the fairness of test materials are rigorously conducted by both ACT staff and external consultants. We also employ statistical procedures to help ensure that our test materials do not unfairly affect the performance of any group.  \nAdditional ACT Preparation Materials  \n• ACT Online Prep™: The only online test preparation program designed by the ACT test development professionals. ACT Online Prep has practice test questions, a practice essay with real-time scoring, a diagnostic test, and personalized Study Path. You can access ACT Online Prep via the Internet anywhere and at any time.  \n• The Real ACT Prep Guide is the official print guide to the ACT. This book includes three practice ACTs previously used in actual test administrations—each with an optional Writing Test, with explanations for all right and wrong answer choices.  \nACT Online Prep, the Real ACT Prep Guide, and sample test [booklets are available at](booklets are available at www.actstudent.org)[ www.actstudent.org](booklets are available at www.actstudent.org).  \n1 General Preparation for the ACT  \nChoosing a Test Option  \nStudents testing in the United States may register for one of two Test Options: the ACT, or the ACT Plus Writing, which includes a 30-minute Writing Test for an additional fee. The ACT Writing Test complements the ACT English Test. The combined results from both tests provide information about your understanding of the conventions of standard written English and your ability to produce a direct sample of your writing. Taking the ACT Plus Writing will provide you with two additional scores: a Writing Test subscore and a Combined English/Writing score. Taking the Writing Test does not affect your subject area scores or your Composite score.  \nNot all institutions require or recommend taking the ACT Writing Test.
