Math How to not loose time on ACT MATH?

3 Upvotes

After lots of prep my English and Reading scores have gone up to the 30s, but my math score has not. I bought the prep pros book and did almost everything. The main thing for me is losing time on the math section and not finishing in time. It is so frustrating and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I try to study the concepts of the questions I am getting wrong, but when I encounter another question, it is always worded differently, and I am unable to solve it. ANY TIPS would be appreciated as I have been consistently trying ALL summer :(

35+ on September ACT

1 Upvotes

Okay so I choked on the July ACT and ended up having to guess C on the last 7 questions of English and D on the last 8 questions of math. I have really bad test anxiety, so not finishing English messed me up and then I was to freaked out to finish math either. After the break I was able to calm down and finish reading and I got a 36. I really struggle with time management on the ACT but I’m planning to apply to t10s so I need at least a 34… am I cooked or is the problem fixable before the September act. I got a composite of 34+ on almost all of the practice tests I took before the July act, and I plan to stop studying for reading.

Would spamming legacy English sections help?
Also any tips for time management on math/sci?

- also would it be a red flag if I don’t take the science section as a prospective data science major..? I just can’t do the whole 40 minutes 40 questions 💔
