Editorial Review: Amazon.com: For the more than one million high school students who take the ACT Assessment each year, any assistance helps; a few more points could influence the rest of their lives. So the ACT Official Guide is a wise investment. It's updated for the 1997-98 testing season with real ACT tests and pragmatic strategies. Just the anxiety reduction alone effected by taking practice tests and knowing what to expect helps avoid a test-day fiasco. Getting into the ACT is written by ACT, with illustrative samples for the English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science Reasoning sections. The preliminary practice allows students to bone up on trouble spots, learn what to expect, gain confidence, and do their best on the big day. Product Description: Created by the same company that prepares the actual ACT assessment, this revised and updated study guide is the only book with real, full-length ACT tests for practice-making it an indispensable resource for the half-million high school students who take the ACT every year. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Getting into the ACT: Official Guide to the ACT Assessment, Second Edition by ACTReview material was what I had expected. The book was in excellent condition. Rating:  - Newer edition availableOnce deemed the "only" official ACT guide, Getting Into the ACT has been replaced with a newer, more up-to-date version titled, "The Real ACT Prep Guide".

I would suggest using the Getting Into the ACT for just practice, to see how you would do on the ACT and the other tests with a time ...

I did not really prepare for my first ACTs; I only took a brief glance at an ACT-produced material. So, I decided to buy this book to get more used to the test. If you really need to know the 'format' of the test, you don't have to buy this book. Buy Barron's or Kaplan, or Princeton Review. What this book is REALLY useful at is giving you an expectation of the level of questions the ACT is going to ask you. For instance, Barron's ACT ... Read More Rating: - very helpfulI bought this book prior to my taking the ACT for the first time and I must say it was helpful. The great advantage is that this book is written by the test makers and you know that the sample tests are similar to the actual test. This way, you really get the best practice and you are "surprised" on the day of the test with questions you've never seen before. Another great advantage is the sample tests (something you can not get in any other ACT preparation book). Unfortunately, there are only 2 sample ... Read More
