Ultimate Guide to the Math ACT

PLEASE NOTE: This 2nd edition of the Ultimate guide to the Math ACT has been replaced by the 3rd edition. Click "See all formats and editions" to order the 3rd edition.

Ultimate Guide to the Math ACT contains everything you need to know to get your best possible score on the math section of the ACT. It can be used as a standalone text or as a companion to the official prep guides published by the ACT.

This book contains lessons on 38 topics that may appear on the math ACT. Throughout the lessons, there are screenshots of how to use the TI-84 family of calculators to solve problems. Topics are taken from algebra, geometry, pre-calculus, and statistics.

Each topic includes:

• Formulas you will need to know
• Homework problems (more than 550 problems total)
• Solutions to the homework problems

Ultimate Guide to the Math ACT shows how often topics appear on the test. This enables students with high target scores (30+) to focus on the material they need without getting bogged down in math fundamentals. Students with more modest target scores can focus on the fundamentals without being distracted by advanced material not needed to hit their targets.

Ultimate Guide to the Math ACT also contains practical advice on how to practice taking the tests, such as:

• How to set your target score
• Optimizing your pace based on your target score
• Steps to follow when solving problems, which improve problem selection
• How to get the most from every practice test
• Six useful problem-solving techniques that you probably never learned in school

See for yourself why more than 30,000 students have used what is referred to as the “gold standard” of ACT math books!
