The ACT isn't a test to see how many "facts" you've retained. It's a timed aptitude test.
The math part has algebra, geometry, trig, and some calculus on it. Sorry, but no way is a 12 year old going to do well on a math test with all those on it. It's gotta be a watered down version for Jr. High level.

...no.
In 7th grade, you are taking prealgebra. Concepts. Since all formulas are given to you on the ACT, the math section is more a test of realizing what goes where.
The science section is nothing more than reading graphs. And the english and literature sections are common fricking sense.
