If you're a junior attending a Columbus institution such as Dublin Coffman High School or Dublin Scioto High School, Varsity Tutors can set you up with a Columbus ACT course to help you as you prepare to earn admission to the college or university of your choice. Many students begin thinking about taking the ACT as early as junior high school. The ACT is a standardized exam that focuses on your academic achievement and mastery of skills and knowledge taught in school up until the 12th grade. The was created to assess your college readiness and is accepted by most US colleges and universities.
As one of the first obstacles you will face as you seek to gain entrance to a college or university, you will want to make use of every resource available so you can work towards achieving your academic goals. Varsity Tutors can assist you by enrolling you in an online Columbus ACT course.
What can a Columbus ACT course cover?
The ACT consists of four required sections plus an optional Writing assessment. If you do not elect to take the Writing section, the exam takes just under three hours to complete. The ACT evaluates your Math, Reading, English, and Science skills. Let's take a closer look at the content you'll find in each section, starting with the optional Writing assessment.
When you elect to take the Writing section of the ACT, you will have 40 minutes to respond to one essay question. The essay question will provide you with a passage that presents an issue and three different perspectives on the given issue. You must write a response that states your own viewpoint and determines a connection between your viewpoint and one or more of the three provided perspectives. An ACT course can help you practice your writing skills. You will need to be able to write at the level expected when you take an entry-level college composition course. You will want to work on your analysis and comparison skills and your ability to draft an organize your thoughts in a clear concise manner.
The next section is the Math assessment and consists of 60 questions, which you must finish within an hour. The section contains multiple-choice questions that assess the mathematical skills you should have acquired in your courses up until the beginning of senior year of high school. You will be tested on pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry in this section of the ACT. An ACT course can help you review number systems, numerical reasoning, interpreting equations, and probabilities, among other skills necessary to do well in this portion of the ACT. Working through these kinds of problems in an ACT prep course can provide you with immediate feedback on the types of questions you need to continue to improve.
The next section is the Reading section. This assessment contains 40 questions, which you must answer within 35 minutes. These multiple-choice, passage-based questions evaluate your reading comprehension skills. You will need to be able to identify central themes and ideas in a passage and summarize the ideas found within the text. You will also want to brush up on your ability to determine phrase and word meanings based on the context. Your ACT review should also include the ability to discern between fact and opinion as well as being able to make connections between different texts. Working on these skills in an ACT prep course can provide you with a more thorough review than you might be able to do on your own.
The English section of the ACT consist of 75 multiple-choice questions, which you must finish within 45 minutes. This is your opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of the conventions of the English language such as sentence construction, punctuation, grammar, and style and tone of language. Your ACT prep course can help you to hone these skills so you can work through this section with confidence and ease.
The final section is the Science section, which consists of 40 questions. This 35-minute multiple-choice section will assess your ability to interpret and manipulate scientific data presented in different format. Your ACT prep review should include the Scientific Method and other procedures of scientific experimentation and investigation.
Whether you wish to focus on a single section of the ACT or desire a comprehensive review of all the sections, an online Columbus ACT class can be an invaluable tool as you prepare to take this critical exam.
