Next, you will need to select your test code. We suggest taking test code 13ED if you are taking this practice exam between January and June, and test code 15ED if you are taking the practice exam between July and December.

Next up, there is a toggle to take Section 4, science, or not. If you are not sure, we recommend taking the science section so that you can learn about your strengths in that section.

Leave “Practice Mode” toggled off.

Practice mode should only be used if you are enrolled in a tutoring program and been specifically asked to test in this mode.

Select Accomodations and Supports if and only if you have been approved for accommodations already through ACT (Otherwise, continue to step 6.)

You may then select the exact accomodations you have been approved for, including 50% or 100% extended time and extra, extended, or as-needed breaks.

Launch your exam: Once you have chosen the test type and test code, click Launch Exam Now at the bottom right corner of your screen.

Start your exam: You may now click Next to begin the exam. The test player will track time for you and advance to each section as you finish.

Good luck from your Revolution Prep team!
