No feature of the ACT distinguishes that test more from its College Board rival than the Science section. How can a test feature as enduring and prominent as this one still be so poorly understood? Amy and Mike invited author and test prep guru Michael Cerro to provide some definitive answers regarding what ACT Science is all about.  What are five things you will learn in this episode? What makes ACT Science different from every other test section? How much actual science does a test taker need to know?  In what way is ACT Science a test of "Where's Waldo?" How valuable is an understanding of the scientific method? Is ACT Science something that can be effectively prepared for?
