ACT: Understanding Your Scores

Several students will be taking the ACT on Saturday, April 8.

The focus now should be on preparing for the exam, but after the exam is done, you will need to understand your score.

You will receive a score report similar to the images below. In it, you will be able to view your Composite Score as well as your individual scores in each section.

Universities disclose the average ACT score of their incoming freshmen class so you can go onto the websites of the universities you want to apply to in order to see how your ACT score compares to their average acceptances.
