What's a good score on the ACT? |
|
I got my score back and I don't know if I did good or what. What's considered a good score?

I scored a 30, and that was after doing shots of vodka in the parking lot!

9. naw, I'll just post it |
|
a 29. here are the results from the site:
ACT Composite 29 Test Score (1-36) Subscore Subscore (1-18) English 33 Usage/Mechanics 17 Rhetorical Skills 16 Mathematics 21 Pre-Algebra/Elementary Algebra 10 Int. Algebra/Coord.Geometry 12 Plane Geometry/Trigonometry 11 Reading 34 Social Studies/Science 17 Arts/Literature 17 Science 26 Writing
Comments on Your Essay: 11/12 Your essay addressed the complexity of the issue by fully responding to counterarguments. Your essay effectively supported general statements with specific reasons, examples, and details. Your essay showed a good command of language by using varied sentences and precise word choice.
Sounds like this is pretty good. I'm not a math person.

10. those are good scores |
|
especially the 33 in english and 34 in reading! But the real test is what is the median score range of your dream school. You want to at least be there, and being above it is even better.

Most colleges expect at least a 19.
I don't really know the averages though. Did they give you a percentile score as well?
