The 2009-10 edition of ACT's free test preparation student booklet contains new full-length multiple-choice practice tests and a new sample writing prompt with scoring instructions. In addition, new sample items are available online to help students become familiar with the tests and practice for test day.
Effective with the 2009-10 testing year, a new retest restriction limits the number of times a student may test. A student may take the ACT no more than twelve (12) times total. After the student has tested 12 times, he or she will not be able to register to test. Check the student registration booklet and at www.actstudent.org.
