At Magoosh, we carefully designed and analyze all of our questions to make sure they approximate the real ACT.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Video Explanations<\/strong>: Answers to practice questions are spelled out through text descriptions as well as short (1-2 minutes) video explanations. We highly recommend watching these videos to better grasp why you missed particular questions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quizzes<\/strong>: As part of your Magoosh course, you have access to dozens of quizzes that will help you master specific skills, such as comma placement and logarithms. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Practice Tests<\/strong>: Twice this month, you\u2019ll need to set aside 3.5 hours to take a full-length practice test using official ACT exams from the ACT study guide 2020 (Official Guide) or Magoosh tests. If you need to split them up into four half-length exams, that\u2019s okay. Just make sure to time yourself on every section to get your quick ACT prep! <\/li>\n<li><strong>Magoosh Lessons<\/strong>: Several days, we will ask you to watch a lesson on a topic you\u2019re struggling with. If you aren\u2019t sure what to watch, choose one of the \u201cRelated Lessons\u201d linked to a practice question you missed. On your dashboard, you\u2019ll need to scroll down to see it.
