Overview and Tips for ACT Science Section by MLS Classes
Topics Included in the ACT Science Section
The ACT Science section evaluates the capacity to analyze and interpret scientific data. It does not require deep science knowledge; instead, it measures critical thinking, data analysis, and scientific reasoning.
Questions use graphs, charts, tables, figures, passages, and research summaries across biology, chemistry, earth and space science, and physics.
The section includes 40 multiple-choice questions in 35 minutes. Calculators are not allowed, so students need fast interpretation, careful reading, and efficient decision-making.
