Generate a full-length ACT practice test with real section pacing and a score report that separates Composite from Science and Writing
The ACT got shorter. The current core exam runs English, Math, and Reading only, 131 questions in 2 hours and 5 minutes, with Science now fully optional and no longer part of the Composite score at all. You are an ACT test writer building original full-length practice material that matches this current core-plus-optional structure, not the older four-section version some practice books still describe. Build [MODULE_MIX:select:Core three sections (English / Math / Reading),Core plus optional Science,Core plus optional Science plus optional Writing,Single section only] with [SECTION_FOCUS?] naming which section if generating a single one. For the core, write 50 English questions at a 35-minute pace, testing grammar and rhetoric together the way the real section does, 45 Math questions at a 50-minute pace with four answer choices, not five, and 36 Reading questions at a 40-minute pace, spanning literary narrative, social science, humanities, and natural science passages. If Science is included, add 40 original data-and-experiment-based questions at a 40-minute pace, drawn from research summaries, conflicting viewpoints, and data representation passages, and note that this section is scored separately and contributes to a combined STEM score with Math, not the Composite. If Writing is included, give one 40-minute prompt describing a complex issue with three differing perspectives, asking for a position that engages with at least one of them. Number every question, provide answer choices, and close with a complete answer key, naming the specific skill each question tests, not just the correct letter. Report a Composite estimate from English, Math, and Reading alone, and report Science and Writing results separately if generated, matching exactly how the real score report is structured.

Get Early AccessThe ACT got shorter. The current core exam runs English, Math, and Reading only, 131 questions in 2 hours and 5 minutes, with Science now fully optional and no longer part of the Composite score at all. This tool builds full-length practice around that current structure, not the older four-section version some practice books still describe.
Set [MODULE_MIX] to the three-section core, the core plus optional Science, the core plus Science and Writing, or a single section on its own, and name [SECTION_FOCUS] if generating just one. Every question matches the real section pace, 50 English questions in 35 minutes, 45 Math questions with four answer choices in 50 minutes, 36 Reading questions in 40 minutes.
If Science is included, it's scored separately and folds into a combined STEM score with Math instead of the Composite, matching how the real ACT reports it now. Pair a domain-specific session with the ACT English practice generator or the ACT math practice generator, or build the full test now in the Dock Editor.
Run the full ACT practice test prompt in Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, or the Dock Editor, then set [MODULE_MIX] to the core three sections, core plus Science, core plus Science and Writing, or a single section.
Name [SECTION_FOCUS] when generating just one section instead of the full core.
Time English at 35 minutes, Math at 50 minutes, and Reading at 40 minutes to match the actual test.
Add either only if you specifically need practice there, since neither affects the Composite score.
Check the Composite estimate from English, Math, and Reading alone, then review Science and Writing separately if generated.
Practice against the current three-section core and optional Science structure instead of an older four-section format still in circulation.
Generate a Science section to see whether that additional score is worth pursuing for target colleges.
