It helped my English score rised to a 34! It was the only section I consistently devoted time towards, so the next time when I steer to math and reading, it will rise even higher!

How did Magoosh help you?
It helped me to pace myself on all tests. It helped me with strategies in answering questions. And it filled me in on information I did not know beforehand. The practice act tests were a huge help too.

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped me to understand testing strategies that proved key to hacking the math section. I stopped thinking of the math as math and more as a puzzle to be solved.

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped me to adapt the ACT structure as ACT was completely new for me. I didn't know about the ACT till October 2017, and I prepared for the ACT with the help of Magoosh and gave ACT test in June 2018 and I got a good score.

How did Magoosh help you?
The math section helped me greatly. The in depth explanations helped me approach questions in ways I never would have thought about before. The math lesson plans were also extremely helpful, I saw that a lot of the concepts covered were on the ACT in different forms. Breaking down and reviewing the basics helped me immensely.

How did Magoosh help you?
The Magoosh lessons I took helped me develop strategies for answering questions on the ACT; for example, the Science videos taught me a way to answer questions efficiently, and that method helped save me a lot of time on the ACT. The Mathematics lessons gave me an extremely helpful review of high school math concepts and showed me the method of "backsolving", which was very useful on the test. The practice ACTs I took through Magoosh showed me where I needed to review.

How did Magoosh help you?
I continued to get on it when I was bored, when I woke up, before I went to bed. I just made a habit of studying the Math and English because I really wanted to improve in those areas, and I did!! The most amazing thing, after studying the English so long and just getting used to the reading and becoming faster, my ACT reading became MUCH faster as a result and I crushed it and wasnt expecting to at all which gave a huge boost to my score! I maintained a 24 on Science and Math, improved to a 29 from a previous high of 25 on English, and made a 31 on the reading because of the study tips I learned to use to pace myself! I was blown away at how small tips and tricks could improve my score so much and I was quite skeptical at first, but Magoosh WORKS!

How did Magoosh help you?
I had a lot of difficulty in the reading/english section of most standardized exams (especially in the PSAT that I took before). However, in Magoosh, I practiced a lot of reading and english while not doing that much math and science, since I considered myself to have attained mastery in those fields. In the end, I got a 36 in reading and a 32 in english! In math I got 35, and 29 in science. That was my own fault, however, because I didn't study science that much. It was more difficult than I thought because of the time.

Magoosh gave me a fair study plan that I could follow for my personalised time frame. Often the ACT is about confidence, and Magoosh gave me the advice and tips tailored to my weakest topics to give me a cool head for my first test day.
