ok, ive read thru a lil book on how to prepare for this thing, took it before, got my calculator pencils and all that crap togehter, any last minute things i should cram for, and is there any good tricks for the reading section? and how much sleep should i get before taking this thing
 
modify your calc and a friends calc, preferibly ti-83+, with bluetooth and write a program on it so u guys can message each other. Then compare answers.

 
Tell them you have ADHD. You might get more time to take the test 😛


But I digress...Keep your cool, don't stress, and don't rush!
 
Make sure you piss before the test. I had to go piss real bad when I got to the science section the first time I took it. I got a 23 on Science the first time and a 29 the second time when I could concentrate.
 
I got my results back a week or so ago.

I was going on six hours of sleep, and didnt finish the math sections fully. Sleep helps.

I got a composite 30. Science and Math were 28s. Reading=33. English=32.

Good luck.
 
Here's some actual advice:

I dunno if you've taken the SAT yet, but the ACT for me seemed longer... ie I had less time to complete it in. Don't rush, but don't take your time either... just go through the test kinda speedily... I'm sure you'll find that most of the questions are easy.
