The FUNDAMENTALS is a great quick refresher, especially designed for students scoring below a 24, while the entire ACT Curriculum is a bit more in-depth and a great extension of ACT skills if you have already scored in the 25+ range. You can download the PDF's here:

Test Prep Books in the counseling office
Mrs. Sjuts has a wide variety of Preparation materials in her office if you prefer a paper/pencil method of preparing. Since the test is administered via pencil/paper (filling in the bubble sheets) this is an authentic way to prepare. Although it is rather time consuming and tedious, this is also a good way to prepare for the physical taking of the test. Contact Mrs. Sjuts to check out any of these materials.
