Study Strategies
## Know What You’re Up Against
ACT Science questions come in different styles: data interpretation,
experimental design, and conflicting viewpoints. Recognizing the type tells you what to look for and how to answer
faster.
- Data questions need you to read graphs and tables.
- Experimental design questions test your understanding of how studies are set up.
- Conflicting viewpoints require comparing different opinions.
Spotting the question type saves time and helps you focus.
Examples
- Recognizing a conflicting viewpoints question by the presence of two scientists’ statements
- Identifying a data interpretation question by its reference to a specific table or graph
