How do I get a 34 on the ACT?

Question

I'm planning to take the ACT for a second time in September and possibly October if needed.... I got a 31 composite (9 on the essay) the first shot (I pretty much did like 1 practice test and a few sections prior to the test).... how can I raise my score to a 34? I know I obviously need to study... but I don't want a tutor or a course and I want a study schedule that is flexible and won't work me to death... I'd be okay with a 32 but I really need a 34 to potentially get a full ride to a school I want to apply to....

also, does anyone know the statistics on how much better people usually do when they take it a second time? I know I increased my SAT score by like 130 points when I took it the second time.... do I have any chance of bring ACT grade up a whole 3 points?

Answer 1
