Reasoning over recall — data, experiments, viewpoints
The ACT Science test does not ask what you memorized in biology or chemistry — it asks whether you can read a graph, follow an experiment, and reason from evidence you have never seen before. This epoch teaches the test as it actually is: 40 questions in 35 minutes across three passage types (Data Representation, Research Summaries, and Conflicting Viewpoints), where nearly every answer is sitting in a figure, a table, or a scientist's paragraph. You will practice reading trends, tracking variables and controls, interpolating and extrapolating, combining two figures, doing light math on the data, evaluating what a result supports or refutes, and pacing yourself so you finish. Master these and the Science test becomes the most gettable section on the ACT — because the answers are on the page.
