The ACT Science section doesn't test memorized science facts—it tests how well a student can read a graph, follow an experiment's design, and judge whether a claim is actually supported by the data given. Passages draw on biology, chemistry, earth and space science, and physics, but a student doesn't need outside content knowledge in any of them to do well; everything needed is in the passage itself.

Since Science is now an optional section, it’s worth deciding early whether adding it fits a student’s goals. Our tutors at Growing Stars build a plan around exactly what each student needs to work on, based on their current comfort level with data and scientific reasoning and their target score, rather than reviewing everything equally. Sessions walk through each skill clearly, using real practice questions, so students build both the reasoning skills and the speed needed to finish comfortably.
Our tutors focus on reading data quickly and accurately, understanding experimental design, and practicing under the section’s real-time pressure.
Whichever skill needs the most attention, sessions are matched to the exact sub-topics within each domain:
Format and content below reflect the Enhanced ACT, which rolled out nationally by September 2025 and is the current version as of August 2026. ACT, Inc. may continue to refine details, so we recommend confirming the latest details on the official ACT Science page before test day.
At Growing Stars, we know that every student’s comfort with data and scientific reasoning is different. Our expert tutors personalize each session to the student’s goals and current comfort level, rather than following a fixed script.
Sessions are built around official-style practice questions and full-length practice tests, supported by our library of data-interpretation drills and experimental-design practice. Because sessions are one-on-one, tutors can spend as much time as needed on the skill causing trouble—whether that’s reading a graph quickly, identifying the variable in an experiment, or judging which of two scientists’ viewpoints the data actually supports.
Sessions take place online, so students can join from home, a study space, or anywhere with an internet connection.
