This program uses markup such as "++markup" and "markup++" to mark the beginning and end of each part. For example, to make changes to the tab names, change the text between "++ tab1" and "tab1 ++" as seen below the instructions. This will automatically change the tab name - after saving and reloading the page.

PDF INSTRUCTIONS

To get the fastest url link, go to: “acceptedinc.com/s/book_name_look_inside.pdf” It will automatically change to a different url. Copy and paste that new url between the "++ pdflink" and "pdflink ++" markup tags.

Slow link example -> 'https://acceptedinc.com/s/CLEP_biology_look_inside.pdf';

Fastest link example -> 'https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f7dcd5cf39b1d49d213d567/t/5fdc6ea8ef3da3664b201c58/1608281770980/CLEP_biology_look_inside.pdf'

TABLE INSTRUCTIONS

Tables may be difficult to read because they can not contain line breaks (pressing the return key). This is because Squarespace inserts code at each line break that will make huge gaps in the table. For ease of reading, you can add line breaks while editing. But before saving, always REMOVE ALL LINE BREAKS. Keep one space around each markup tag.

READ MORE BUTTON INSTRUCTIONS - SPACING

If the 'Read More' button found at the bottom of each page is too high, don't use a normal Squarespace spacer block to make room. That's because Squarespace spacers don't appear in mobile mode. Instead, Use a Squarespace code block with the following code to give extra room:

Code Block Spacer -> <p>&nbsp;</p>

++answerWhat is the ACT?

The ACT is an achievement test designed to assess what you’ve learned in school. Universities will look at your ACT score to help determine if you’re ready to tackle college-level material. However, your test score won’t be the only thing that schools look at; they’ll also consider your high school transcript, letters of recommendations, and school activities. So, while the ACT exam is an important part of your college application, it’s only one part of the application process.answer++


++answerHow can I pass the ACT?

Accepted, Inc., offers an ACT practice test online with purchase of our ACT study guide. Our ACT test prep includes specific materials for each section. You can focus on the subjects you need the most help with. For example, take an ACT reading practice test to find out what concepts you need to review.answer++


++answerWhat’s on the ACT?

The ACT consists of five sections: English, mathematics, reading, science, and writing. The first four sections are multiple-choice; the writing section requires you to write a short expository essay.answer++


++answer Is the ACT Writing required?

The writing section is optional and will not affect your composite score; however, some colleges will require a writing sample score. You should decide when you register for the test whether you want to take this portion.

++answerShould I guess on the ACT?

There is no penalty for incorrect answers.answer++


++answerHow is the ACT Administered?

The ACT is a paper-based test available at testing centers around the United States and the world. Refer to the ACT website for testing dates and sites.

On the day of your test, arrive early and be sure to bring proper identification and your admission ticket (which is emailed to you after you register). You are required to put away all personal belongings before the test begins. Cell phones and other electronic, photographic, recording, or listening devices are not permitted in the testing center at all. You are allowed pencils, erasers, and a four-function or scientific calculator on your desk during the test. For details on what to expect on testing day, refer to the ACT website.answer++


++answerCan I use a calculator on the ACT?

Calculators may only be used for the mathematics section. A watch that will not sound during the test is also allowed.answer++


++answerHow is the ACT Scored?

You’ll receive a point for every correctly answered multiple-choice question.answer++


++answerWhat is a good ACT score?

The number of correctly answered questions becomes your raw score, which is then scaled to a score from 1 to 36. Your composite score is the average of your scaled score on each of the four multiple-choice sections.

The writing section will not affect your composite score. Two graders will score your essay from 1 to 6 in four domains: ideas and analysis, development and support, organization, and language use and conventions. Your summed scores for each of these domains will be included on your score report. The graders’ scores will also be scaled to create an overall writing score from 1 to 36.answer++

Table Example 1

++answer Is the GED Math test hard?

The Mathematical Reasoning test assesses mastery of key fundamental math concepts. Rather than focusing on specific content, the GED math test focuses on reasoning skills and mathematical thinking. Prepare for mathematical content areas, specifically algebra, data analysis, and number sense. Questions will assess your ability to make sense of complex problems, use logical thinking to find solutions, recognize structure, and look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. You also will be evaluated on the precision of your mathematics.

++answer What’s on the TSI exam?

The TSI assesses reading comprehension, writing, and mathematical skills. The questions are aligned with the Texas College and Career Readiness Standards, and gauge your readiness to tackle college-level coursework. Because the test is computer adaptive, you will encounter more difficult topics as you continue to correctly answer questions on the test.
