ACT Math study plan

Solve 40 linear equations and linear inequalities, including absolute-value cases, showing each step without a calculator.

Translate 10 word problems into single-variable equations, solve them, and check each answer against the original wording.

Factor and expand 25 polynomial expressions covering common factors, difference of squares, and basic trinomials.

Simplify 15 rational expressions and solve 10 rational equations, stating the restricted values for each.

Evaluate function notation for 25 inputs, including composite functions and simple inverses.

Convert 20 quadratics among standard, vertex, and factored forms, and read off the vertex and intercepts from each.

Match 15 equations to their graph behaviors: intercepts, end behavior, and basic asymptotes.

Solve 10 systems of two equations by both substitution and elimination and verify each solution graphically.

Compute perimeter, area, surface area, and volume for 20 figures, including unit conversions on at least 5 of them.

Solve 15 circle problems covering arc length, sector area, chords, central angles, and inscribed angles.

Find areas and volumes of 10 composite figures by decomposing them into known shapes.

Set up and solve 20 ratio, proportion, and rate problems, including multi-step unit-rate conversions.

Compute 20 percent-change, percent-of, and successive-percent problems, distinguishing increase from decrease.

Apply exponent and radical rules to simplify 25 expressions, including rational exponents.

Convert between decimal, fraction, and scientific notation for 15 values, and order 10 mixed-format numbers from least to greatest.

Compute mean, median, mode, range, and weighted average for 12 data sets, including one-value-changes cases.

Read and interpret box plots and histograms to answer 10 questions about spread, quartiles, and outliers.

Calculate probabilities of 15 simple and compound events, including complementary and conditional cases.

Solve 10 counting problems using the fundamental counting principle, permutations, and combinations as appropriate.

Rank your three weakest subtopics from the accumulated error log and drill 20 items in each.

Work 60 mixed practice questions spread evenly across all five domains, untimed, recording time per question.

Rewrite every still-missed item from the error log as a rule or worked template.

Set a per-question time budget and rehearse it on 20 questions, stopping at the limit for each.

Take two full-length timed math sections under test conditions, no interruptions.

Review both sections item by item and classify each miss as content gap, misread, or pacing.

Recall the full formula and rule sheet from memory in under 10 minutes, twice.

Redo 15 items from the two timed sections that were missed, aiming for zero repeat errors.
