Sharan
The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it tests whether you can read a graph, compare two experimental setups, and draw a conclusion under time pressure. Sharan's 36 composite and her premed science background at Cornell mean she can teach both the data-interpretation shortcuts the...

Treat the ACT Science section like a data-interpretation exercise, not a science exam — that's the approach Aaron takes after earning a 36 composite. His biochemistry background at Columbia means he can quickly explain the underlying science when it does matter, but he spends most of the time teachi...

Michelle's 35 ACT composite came from treating the Science section as a speed-reading exercise — identifying what each figure measures, matching it to the question, and moving on before the passage's technical language becomes a distraction. Her Religious Studies background actually reinforced this ...
