I reviewed ACT aspire this week. I tried out two different level 3 tests. The English grade 3 test surprised me with the amount of questions that asked students to review the essay and decide what the tone of the essay was, pick the ending of a story, or fix grammatical errors. I liked the format that told kids IF there is an error to correct. A lot of ACT questions seem like trick questions that don't always give the correct answer. There are a lot of questions that also asks about the goal the writer.
Also, I looked at the science grade 3, this one was primarily graphs. Most questions asked questions directly from the graph, a few asked more abstract questions that also asked kids to read the paragraph describing the graphs, and a few questions even asked students to use multiple questions.
I did not like how it does not give the correct answers at the end.
