Each core math concepts presented is elemental and should be easily understandable to any high schooler signed up to take the test. Nevertheless, a great many will have trouble with at least several of those listed.
Students should use the document as a checklist, as follows:
Beginning with the first item, grade each concept A, B, or C depending on your current level of understanding. If the topic is completely understood, give the item an "A" grade. If the item is not at all understood, give the item a "C" grade. Somewhere in between? Give the item a "B" grade.
Your task, of course, is first to master any concepts graded "C," and then all those graded "B." The best way to accomplish this is to use a friend, tutor, or Google to help you learn to handle each concept and/or skill presented.
The list is a bit dated, however, and the ACT writers have since updated the content of the test's math section to include more advanced concepts.
