UPenn expects a minimum GPA of 3.9 from international applicants and ACT and SAT scores of 34 or above and 1500 or above to provide successful admission. However range provided by official is lower than expected due to high competition. Students must perform well academically throughout their schooling and college to improve their selection chances. They must also work on some relevant extracurricular activities.

The test is getting shorter. It will be about 2 hours long. The big change is that the Science section will be optional now. You can skip it if you want. The reading passages will be shorter too. It is meant to be less tiring. The digital format is also taking over.

Two months maybe enough to prepare for the ACT exam. Just - 

  • Get good understanding of subjects being tested - English, Math, Reading, Science
  • Prepare to commit with your time and effort for studying consistently
  • Complete several practice tests under timed condition to become accustomed to the test format

If the syllabus of ACT is similar to the topics available in the NCERT, Indian applicants can readily prepare for ACT from there. This can prove to be another resource material for the applicants if preparing for ACT from NCERTs and there may be more questions available for practice as well.

ACT preparation may be difficult for a few students, while it may not be for some other. There are four sections on ACT and its not mandatory that all students are pro in all sections. Some applicants may have a strong point in Math and Science while others may find Reading and Writing easier. Thus, it completely depends upon the candidate where he/she is comfortable, hence the ACT prep will be easier for stronger sections and difficult for not so confident areas.
