As a business owner mom with 4 sons between the ages of 13-19, I’m all about FREE! Where do I get the practice tests that I use with my students? I’ll let you in on all my secrets!

ACT

1. ACT Retired Test 2176CPRE
   Practicing from a retired test is the best practice you can do because the only difference then between the practice you are doing and the actual test is where you are sitting!!

2. ACT Retired Test 1572CPRE
   Another retired ACT test!

3. Free ACT Practice Test 1267C
   Here is another retired practice test.

4. ACT Practice Test 2011-2012 964E
   Here is another one!

5. ACT Practice Test 2008-2009 0661C
   Yup, you guessed it. Another retired test!

6. ACT Practice Test 0359F
   Hmm... here is the 6th FREE test that ACT has published! So much fun!

7. Free Prep through ACT
   This link is to the ACT website. They do offer some free prep, but it is minimal.

SAT

1. College Board Website
   This is the SAT gold mine! College Board's website with links to 4 Retired SAT tests for practice.

2. https://www.khanacademy.org/
   This is a wonderful site that can use your PSAT score or SAT score to help come up with a customized study plan!

You might be asking why there are 7 links for ACT prep, but only 2 for SAT. The College Board (the geniuses that make the SAT) are much more forth-coming with SAT Prep. The first link that goes to the College Board website has 4 released tests for FREE AND several of the tests are recently given tests that were released. You really can’t get better than that! Thank you College Board!

How can this list help me?

Because these are standardized tests, that means that there is basically a recipe that the test makers follow when making the tests. They need to do that in order to compare the scores from different test dates. This means that the MORE you practice, the MORE confident you will become, and the MORE you will see your score increase! Of course, you need to understand what you are doing wrong for the questions that you are getting wrong. You might need some extra help to figure out why and that is when I would recommend signing up for a course or meeting with a tutor.
