SAHS ACT Test Preparation 2018 Science Test Tips for the ACT SAHS ACT Test Preparation 2018

About the Science Test… The Science test is a 40 question, 35 minute test that is designed to measure the interpretation, analysis, evaluation, reasoning, and problem- solving skills required in the natural sciences.

About the Science Test… You must PACE YOURSELF!.... Spend about 2 minutes reading each passage, then you will have about 30 seconds to answer each question. If possible, spend less time on the passages and questions and use the remaining time allowed for this test to review your work and return to the questions on this test that were most difficult for you.

Big Tip! It is important that you read the entire text and examine any tables, graphs, or figures. You may want to make notes about important ideas in the information provided in your test booklet! Before you begin answering a question, read the scientific material provided!

Science Tips You will not be permitted to use a calculator on the science test. Note Different Viewpoints in Passages. Some material will present conflicting points of view, and the questions will ask you to distinguish among the various viewpoints. It may be helpful for you to make notes summarizing each viewpoint next to that section in the test booklet. Pace Yourself!

Big Tip! ANSWER EVERY QUESTION! Your score on the tests will be based only on the number of questions that you answer correctly; there is NO penalty for guessing. Try to answer every question within the time allowed for each test. ANSWER EVERY QUESTION!
