Extra Time on the ACT-ACT  Test Taking Tips

Have you been granted extra time on the ACT?

Here is how the extra time allotment works on the ACT

Students with ‘time and a half’ have about 4 and a half hours to complete the four main sections of the ACT Test: English, Reading, Math, and Science

Students have to budget this time on their own. We recommend that students with extra time (1.5X) spend the following on each section:

English-67 minutes

Math-90 minutes

Reading-52.5 minutes

Science-52.5 minutes

Regular Time on the ACT
