How to Improve Your ACT Math Timing

This video covers how to improve your timing on the Math section of the ACT by answering questions in a quicker, more efficient manner. Strategies discussed include Process of Elimination and Backsolving, in addition to using a graphing calculator for arithmetic calculations and other operations such as complex number operations, least common multiple, etc. Each strategy is demonstrated on 2 example problems from April 2022 ACT tests. For more example problems of how to use these techniques, please see my Improve Your ACT Math Score Course. For more examples of Calculator Operations, please see my TI-84 Plus Calculator Operations Playlist below.
