Synopsis

This set of test-preparation flash cards is designed to give prospective ACT test-takers the help they're looking for. The cards cover all five sections of the ACT and are divided into categories that reflect the ACT's test areas: English, Math, Reading, Science, and Writing. Cards for each section are filled with test-taking tips and strategies, important facts, and practice problems that mirror questions on the ACT. The English cards focus mainly on punctuation, grammar, and style. The Math cards cover all topics that appear on the ACT. The Reading cards contain strategies to maximize time and determine correct answers. The Science cards cover data representation, research summaries, and conflicting viewpoints. The Writing cards offer tips for creating a strong essay. All cards have corner punch holes that accommodate an enclosed metal key-ring-style card holder. Students can use the ring to arrange flash cards in sequences that best fit their study needs.
