The fact that you’re reading this book means just one thing—you’ve got a big, important test ahead of you. You want to do well—and we want to help you. We wrote this book to help you do your best on the ACT test. We don’t promise to raise your GPA or to get you on the dean’s list. And we won’t ask you to spend every night for the next six months chained to your desk studying. What we do pledge is that absolutely everything in this book has just one aim: to help you earn the highest ACT score you can. Cambridge teachers have examined the ACT test question by question and answer choice by answer choice. We’ve literally taken each test apart, analyzed every component, and then put the pieces back together again.
