I really need some new ideas on how to improve my math score for the ACT, I have gone in early to math labs, I went to a math prep act class, and the best score i have gotten so far is a 14, pathetic I know.
I really need to get a better math score, because it keeps bringing my overall score down horribly. I got a 25 with the 14 on the math, which isn't awful, but I want a 30, which I believe I can get if I can only bring up my blasted math score. Sorry for rambling, and thanks for any help you guys can give me.

Find a few practice ACT math tests, look through them, and circle all of the questions you don't know how to work. Then find a friendly math teacher willing to help (or a tutor if you can't find a teacher), and ask them to work as many of the problems as they are willing. This way, you will only be working to strengthen your weak areas and not be wasting time reviewing the stuff you already know.
