• Take practice tests

• Take advantage of ACT or SAT classes

• Answer questions you're sure about first, then go back and tackle the others

• Remember that your first gut feeling is more often right than wrong

• On the ACT, if your can eliminate one answer, you have a one-in-three chance of guessing the right answer. If you can eliminate two, you have a 50-50 chance.

• On the SAT, if you can rule out one or more answers for a multiplechoice question, you have a better chance to guess the correct answer.
