[nabs-l] Donating Brailled ACT Prep Resource

[Miso Kwak]

I did fairly well on the SAT but not outstandingly. Both Critical 
Reading and math sections were not making much progress.
CR because how not so straightforward the questions were plus 
ridiculously many vocabularies I need to be aware of (English is my 
second language)
and Math in general is not my strongest suit...
I found that ACT reading sections were much straightforward and I was 
scoring almost perfect score from little studying.
Math was okay. Science took a lot of time but pulled a great score (I 
was lucky for the day I think)
I think SAT writing is actually easier but they are essentially the 
same, just asked in different ways.
Anyways, in my case, I was focusing on SAT for a long time, was 
frustrated at my stagnant score, took the ACT, realized I had so much 
potential, so crammed in the beginning of my senior year, and took the 
test. Result was what I wanted, so it worked out well in the end.
Please if any of you need/want it take the book.

Hi Miso,
I have decided to take the SAT (not the ACT) but I still find it
interesting that you had a good experience with the ACT.  I took
the practice ACT and the practice SAT, and my p-ACT was brailled
horribly.  The reading comprehension was very confusing, and the
diagrams were not drawn well.  But are you good at reading
diagrams? (I'm not, lol.)

I am a high school senior who can say "I am done with the ACT!"
with
gratitude and pride.
Long story short, my parents purchased a braille version of Real
ACT
Prep Guide 2nd edition for me from the APH last summer and used
it for
the preparation.
Since I am done, I no longer need it, so I would like to donate
the
book to someone who is in need of ACT prep resource in Braille.
It includes overview of the test, practice questions, three
different
practice ACT tests, and answer keys along with explanation.
The books (each volume) are in a good condition.  I read through
only
once.
Unfortunately I do not have a print copy to complement but
tactile
diagrams were well done and I personally had no problem using the
book
to self-study and getting the score I wanted.
If you are interested please e-mail me off the list.  Please take
it and
use it well.
Thank you.
Miso Kwak
