ACT Math Error Log + Drill Planner

Record missed or shaky ACT Math items, tag the skill and error, and write this week's drill plan with a revisit date.

Use this page as a working record, not a strategy article. Log missed or shaky ACT Math items, then write this week's drill. Current test format, timing, and scoring live on the official ACT site. Digital SAT Reading and Writing misses belong on the Digital SAT RW error log, not here.

How to fill a row

  1. Name the problem and where it came from.
  2. Tag the skill you used (algebra, geometry, trig, stats, or a write-in).
  3. Name the error, why it happened, and the method you will use next time.
  4. After you retry, record the result, the next drill, and a revisit date.

Skill labels on this sheet are study tags. They are not official ACT score-report categories. Confirm official reporting language on act.org.
