I learn best with actual physical copies to annotate and revisit. Does anyone know where I can get printable ACT sample tests? Is there an online resource for these?
Yes, there are definitely some resources where you can find printable ACT sample tests. Here are a few you can leverage:
1. ACT.org - This is the official ACT testing organization’s website and they provide a free official ACT practice test that you could print out. These are great because they're written by the same people who make the ACT, so they mirror the actual exam very closely.
2. PrepFactory – While this resource primarily caters to online test prep, it also offers printable ACT tests to practice with.
3. CrackACT - They have collected past real ACT tests which can be printed and practised. It's an excellent resource as these are real tests that were administered in previous years.
4. Major test prep companies – Mainstream test prep companies such as Princeton Review, Barron's, and Kaplan also provide printable ACT practice tests. You would have to purchase their books, but they come with several full-length tests.
One crucial recommendation is to time yourself strictly while practicing with these tests. A large part of the ACT is completing sections within given time limits, so timing your practice tests will give you a more accurate depiction of your performance. Also, be sure to review your incorrect answers after each test to understand where you went wrong. Happy studying!
