Toughest ACT Science Questions: Strategies?

Hey there! Tackling those tough ACT Science questions can definitely be a challenge, but don't worry; there are strategies to help you handle these questions more effectively.

1. Skim the passage first: Look for patterns, trends, and relationships among the information given to familiarize yourself quickly.

2. Focus on the graphs and tables: Most questions can be answered using data from these visuals, so if you understand them well, you'll save a lot of time.

3. Connect visuals with the passage: After interpreting visuals, return to the passage and link the information presented there with what you understood from the visuals.

4. Eliminate answer choices: Cross out any options that you can clearly identify as incorrect, and work with the remaining choices.

Finally, practice is key! The more you practice, the better you'll become at identifying patterns and applying strategies. I'd recommend checking out some resources like CollegeVine's blog for tips and test prep materials.
