What ACT English and Reading actually cover

Usage and mechanics

Punctuation, subject verb agreement, pronouns, verb tense and modifiers make up most of ACT English. The mistakes are predictable, so SkoraPrep tracks which rules you actually break and feeds you more of those until they stick.

Rhetorical skills

Strategy, organization and style questions ask you to think like an editor: does this sentence belong, does this transition work, does this detail support the goal? Every rhetorical question in SkoraPrep comes with a written walkthrough of why the best choice wins.

Reading comprehension

Prose fiction, social science, humanities and natural science passages, with questions on main ideas, details, inference and author's purpose. SkoraPrep shows your accuracy by passage type so you know where your minutes are best spent.

Pacing under time pressure

ACT English gives you 75 questions in 45 minutes and Reading gives you 40 in 35. Speed matters, so SkoraPrep shows your average time per topic and flags the five that slow you down most.
