**Don't forget to have your ACT scores sent to NWMSU, MU or MWSU in case you want to take a dual credit class there.  If there are any other colleges or universities you are interested in, have your scores sent directly to them so you don't have to pay to have them sent later.  They want scores sent directly from ACT.

PrepFactory

Free Website to help you practice the ACT: prepfactory.com

PrepFactory offers free ACT and SAT review activities. When students sign into PrepFactory they are asked to identify which exam they are preparing to take. If students select ACT, they will be shown a screen that has four sections representing the topics students need to review for the ACT. Those four topics are English, math, reading, and science. Students can start their reviews within any of those four sections. Each section contains many sub-topics for students to review. The question formats within each review activity are fill-in-the-blank, sorting, multiple choice, and short response.

PrepFactory isn't just a set of practice problems. PrepFactory provides students with text-based and video tutorials before each set of practice activities. For the student who doesn't feel like he or she needs the tutorials, there is an option to skip the tutorials and go straight into the practice questions.
