Default studying for my ACT

and damn this study book is fucking huge. I graduated HS 4 years ago, and i havent done shit since. Just decided I really should go to college,so now it's like i have to learn everything all over agian. Well it looks like this is going to mean a lot less poker.....Hopefully i dont have trouble getting into a school, i dont even know much about grants and shit. But maybe i could ace this test and get a badass scholarship or something lol. anyway this is just a little rant about all this studying im gonna have to do and all the future stress im gonna have.lol

Basically one of the main reasons i got a 29(95th percentile ftw) on my ACT was because of this book

http://www.amazon.com/Real-Guide-gui...0081532&sr=8-1

The practice tests/problems were almost identical to the test.

Where are you applying? Most schools only want SATs... You should check it out before you spend all that money to take the examination.
