A comprehensive tool to help boost your score on the English, Reading, and Writing portions of the ACT.

If you're one of the more than 1.9 million high school students who take the ACT every year and want to boost your English, Reading, and Writing score, than this is the ideal study resource for you!

McGraw-Hill Education's Conquering ACT English, Reading, and Writing, Fourth Edition is the most complete, in-depth review guide available for all of the verbal topics tested on the ACT. The authors arethe founders of Advantage Education, Inc.—one of America's most respected providers of school-based test-prep classes. They have prepared thousands of students over the course of 20+ years, resulting in strategies that work and are field tested.

The ACT is the fastest-growing and most widely accepted college entrance exam in the United States. It is designed to assess high school students’ general educational development and their ability to complete college-level work. The authors of the ACT insist that the ACT is an achievement test, not a direct measure of abilities. It is not an IQ test, nor is it a measure of your worth as a human being. It is not even a perfect measure of how well you will do in college. Theoretically, each of us has a specific potential to learn and acquire skills. The ACT doesn’t measure your natural, inborn ability. If it did, we wouldn’t be as successful as we are at raising students’ scores on ACT exams. The ACT actually measures a certain knowledge base and skill set. It is “trainable,” meaning that you can do better on your ACT if you work on learning the knowledge and gaining the skills that are tested.
