Top 8 Strategies for the ACT Science Test Read through the instructions carefully, to orient yourself Don't worry about details on your initial read-through Always refer to the passage and the question-stem before selecting an answer In order to read most graphs and tables, you have to do four things: determine what's being represented, determine what the axes represent, take note of units of measurement, and look for trends in the data When reading data, you should be on the lookout for the three characteristic patterns or trends: extremes (maximums and minimums), critical points (or points of change), and direct or inverse variation (or proportionality) If time is a problem, focus on the questions that require analyzing data from just a single table or graph Don't waste time trying to figure out which scientist is "right." Just worry about understanding their different viewpoints Don't panic if you don't understand both scientists' positions. Many questions will hinge on just one of the arguments.
