Students will review test-taking skills for the ACT by applying strategies required for successful completion of this test. The workshop does not take the place of academic preparation gained through high school courses. Through focused instruction, practice with actual test items, and independent activities, students diagnose their individual needs and implement a plan to improve their immediate scores and enhance academic performance in high school and in college. The workshop will include a timed practice section of each area of the test, test-taking strategies, review of all test instructions, timing techniques, avoidance of common errors, and development of positive thinking.
