Top 6 Free Online ACT Prep Courses

Preparing for the ACT Exam Doesn't Need to Be Expensive

There's no need to shell out hundreds of dollars to prepare for the ACT. While some of the sites below offer paid products along with their free services, the free content is substantial and helpful enough to have significant value on its own.

For some students, the structure, deadlines, and teacher interactions that come with an $800 course from Kaplan or Princeton Review will be a worthwhile investment. If, however, you have the focus and motivation to work through many of the materials below independently, you will undoubtedly see a meaningful increase in your ACT scores without spending a penny.

This is the Easiest Way to Fight Depression
freshmilkmagazine.tumblr.com
  1.  Fix your sleeping pattern and get into a routine; wake up in the morning and fall asleep at night. It makes a difference.
  2. The state of your body affects your state of mind. When people fall into depressed moods their shoulders hunch from the drop in energy. If you don’t fix this, it’s going to be hard to come out of it, as it will create a feedback loop. 
  3. So do weights to pull back, straighten and strengthen your shoulders. Start doing plank core exercises every night or second night (10 in a row, hold for 10 seconds each) and find a type of cardio you enjoy. It took me a while to find out jump rope works for me, and now I actually look forward to my sessions.  Straightening out your back/ pulling back your shoulders and strengthening your abdomen is also going to bring down your cortisol levels, make projecting your voice so much easier and naturally boost your confidence levels.
  4. Get a job, any job. Having a job is going to make your emotional state so much less reactive; your brain knows whether or not you can support yourself and afford to stay alive, so having a job is very important.
  5. Give love to the people around you whenever you can. Be kind, make jokes; connect with people.
  6. Depression is often linked to not discharging emotions, particularly anger. So whenever something bothers you, voice it. For people who are less naturally assertive, this can be difficult, but over time it’ll get easier and you’ll get calmer in your delivery. And then when something makes you genuinely angry, you’ll be able to voice it constructively and get it out of your system.
  7. Even if you have a legitimately bad day, don’t give in to the whole Netflix-as-self-care trend. Unless you seriously can’t move, make an effort to do something every single day; even if that’s just going for a walk. Try to make it a habit, so it’s easier to fall back on when things get really tough.
  8. The herbal supplement Ginkgo is amazing at clearing brain fog up. I avoided taking it for years and completely regret it. It’s like a very mild, natural and healthy version of Aderal- for some, it works as a ‘intelligence booster’. And always order it online, because the department store prices are significantly more expensive.
  9. Look into rescue remedy/ Bach’s Flowers Remedies. For some people, it’s the only way they can get out of the house. It’s incredible at de-escalating anxiety, and there is a flower remedy solution for a huge range of mental health ailments.
  10. You might have relationship stuff you haven’t resolved/moved on from. Maybe you haven’t figured out who was at fault, or the ways in which the involved parties messed up. If that is the case, you need to either talk it out or write about it until you clear everything up and can move on from it. A psychologist is great for this, but you could also accomplish it through journaling.
  11. If you’re feeling really down because you’re stressed/overwhelmed, then take a moment to write down everything that is worrying you. After you’ve identified each thing that has accumulated into this stress exhaustion, write down the solution for each and every problem and a schedule for when you’ll tackle them. You’ll feel a lot more in control.
  12. Organise your room so that it looks nice and everything is easy to navigate/access. If you’re someone who experiences frequent dips in mood, you need a straightforward wardrobe. So get a clothes rack or dedicate part of your wardrobe to ‘everyday essentials’ and set up a laundry hamper nearby. People tend to cycle through the same clothes and it’ll also help you find any gaps in your wardrobe.

HYBYCOZO, or the Hyperspace Bypass Construction Zone, is a series of sublime, laser cut cosmic objects, ranging from a Burning Man art installation to design pieces for the home.

The project is inspired by the intersection of science, technology, maker culture in the Bay Area, and of course, the artists’ favorite book, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. HYBYCOZO was designed by 2 San Francisco artists who are hoping to take their passion for design, technology, geometry, and installation art to the next level and expand it into thought provoking art and design.
