Pick the most concise way of stating something. Shortest is best. - ✔️✔️Correct-


Use process of elimination. - ✔️✔️Correct-Try to eliminate wrong answers as you look for

the right one on all sections of the ACT. There is no penalty for guessing on the ACT, so

eliminating wrong answers also increases your probability of guessing correctly.

✔️✔️Correct-

Do not be afraid to pick NO CHANGE as an answer - ✔️✔️Correct-it is correct 25% of the

time

Work at a good pace on the English test. - ✔️✔️Correct-The entire English test is 45

minutes in length. There are 5 sections, each with 15 questions. As a general guide,

spend 9 minutes per passage to finish on time. Do not leave any blank answers.

The ACT used four methods to separate two complete sentences - ✔️✔️Correct-period,

comma, semicolon, colon

4. connect two sentences before a conjunction

Set off a proper name with a pair of commas - ✔️✔️Correct-Set off a proper name with a

pair of commas if the name can be taken out of the sentence without changing the

meaning.

Example:

Our 44th President was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Our 44th President, Barack Obama, was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.



This example doesn't work:

The songwriter Bob Dylan is considered a lyrical genius.

The songwriter is considered a lyrical genius.

A colon is used in two ways on the English test. - ✔️✔️Correct-1. Use a colon after a

complete sentence that introduces either a list or an explanation.

2. Use a colon between two sentences when the second sentence explains the first.

Use a dash in two ways on the English test. - ✔️✔️Correct-1. Use dashes instead of

commas to surround a group of nonessential words.

2. Dashes are usually used for emphasis.

Check subject-verb and subject-pronoun agreement. - ✔️✔️Correct-Long sentences are

often filled with interrupting details in the English passages. Subjects can be far from the

verb or pronoun with which they agree. Ask yourself who or what is doing the action or

what word is being replaced with a pronoun

Know the difference between its, it's, and its' - ✔️✔️Correct-Its is possessive

it's is a contraction of 'it is'

its' is not a thing

Being is frequently an answer choice but virtually never correct. - ✔️✔️Correct-Do mot

use being as a synonym for because or for is



Being is rarely correct on the ACT

Be careful of the way ACT uses the word although. - ✔️✔️Correct-The addition of

although at the beginning of a sentence turns it from an independent clause into a

dependent one. If a sentence was correct with although and then you either delete or

change although to something else, you have a created a run-on sentence

Do not be tricked by "suppose the writer's goal. . . " questions. - ✔️✔️Correct-

Reasons to choose DELETE on answer choices. - ✔️✔️Correct-Use OMIT/Delete when:

1. The underlined portion is redundant

2. The underlined portion explains something that the reader already knows.

3. The underlined portion gives an unnecessary definition for a common word.

Learn when to add a phrase or sentence. - ✔️✔️Correct-Do not add a new phrase or

sentence without reading the previous sentence and the sentence that follows. One of

those two sentences often contains a clue that helps you determine when to add the

suggested sentence

Identify the subject of the sentence below

Evidence that humans are slowly evolving into two different species is being ignored by

scientists. - ✔️✔️Correct-Subject: Evidence

Transitions made easy - ✔️✔️Correct-1. Moreover

2. Meanwhile

3. Additionally

4. Furthermore

Nouns and pronouns can be the object of a verb or preposition - ✔️✔️Correct-

Active voice is preferable to passive voice. - ✔️✔️Correct-Passive voice reverse normal

syntax by making the subject of object and the object the subject. It frequently involves

adding a proposition. At other times, passive voice makes the object the subject and

omits the subject entirely (for example, "The lamp got broken" instead of "I broke the

lamp").

Although the passive voice is not technically grammatically incorrect, it is considered

awkward and unnecessary.

You should avoid picking answer choices that involve the passive voice unless

something is even more wrong with all of the other choices.

Answering illustrate/support questions. - ✔️✔️Correct-If a question asks which answer

best illustrates or supports, pick the choice that gives the most specific

details/examples.

Beware of not/least acceptable questions - ✔️✔️Correct-
