Pre-ACT duration?

So, I have to take the Pre-ACT soon, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how long it usually takes to complete it? I just want to mentally prepare myself for the experience. Thanks in advance!

The Pre-ACT is a practice test designed to give you an idea of the format and content you'll encounter on the actual ACT. It's a bit shorter than the ACT and takes approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes to complete (excluding breaks). The test is divided into four sections: English, Math, Reading, and Science. Here's a breakdown of each section's duration:

1. English: 30 minutes (45 questions)

2. Math: 40 minutes (36 questions)

3. Reading: 30 minutes (25 questions)

4. Science: 30 minutes (25 questions)

Remember that the Pre-ACT is mainly a tool to help you identify areas for improvement and familiarize yourself with the test structure. It's a great opportunity to practice your test-taking skills and build your confidence before taking the actual ACT. Good luck, and I hope this information helps you prepare!
