***APRIL 2015 ACT DISCUSSION THREAD***

So did anyone get their score?

i didn’t get mine yet

Yay! I just got my scores. This is my first time taking it and I did a lot better than I did on the SAT. :smiley:
Composite: 29
English: 33
Reading: 30
Math: 28
Science: 24

I got my score this morning!!

33C
English:29
Reading:32
Math:35
Science:35

Darn English. Always my worst subject. I took the test again this past Tuesday at school so maybe I improved. AT any rate, I am happy with the 33 for my first try. Do colleges get the breakdown of scores or just the composite? I am applying for Engineering, so the math and science scores are the most important.

Still Registered!!!

No result today - here we go again for another week.

Still registered… :frowning: Now we will have to wait another week… It’s going to suck having to worry about the act during AP week though…

@ACT just confirmed that all the scores for today have been posted and those who did not receive their scores (which includes my son) will have to wait until the next release date on Wednesday, May 6.

Facepalm

I’m over the moon happy!

Got a 32! Very happy, because I was aiming for a 31 :smiley:
English- 35
Math- 28
Reading- 34
Science- 31
I was not feeling great about English, but I did way better than I had expected! I kind of predicted Math being so low; I missed anywhere from 8-15. Reading I was expecting a higher score, but a 34 is solid… just don’t know what the curve will be like for the rest of you all. And Science was very doable for me, SO happy with that 31. Good luck to everyone still waiting, focus on AP and what you can actually control right now. You guys all did great!

Finally got my scores!!
35 composite :smiley:
English-33
Math-34
Reading-35
Science-36

Don’t know what happened with English and math because those are usually my best( especially math) but I’m happy nonetheless

They should seriously have a similar policy like college board of releasing the results in 2 weeks time. :-?

No score yet T_T

I got my score too!!! My status never changed to tested-- my scores just came out at 8:40AM EST (when I checked)

34 Composite
34 English
35 Math
33 Reading
35 Science

If I’m aiming for Georgetown/Penn should I retake ACT? I also got 2140 SAT, and plan on retaking and super scoring.

FINALLY!

But worth the wait. A lot of prep, practice tests, etc. have finally paid off.

Dec 2014 - 28C
Feb 2015 - 29C (E34, M31, S28, R22)
April 2015 - 33C! (E33, M33, S33, R31)

From 22 to 31 on reading was a pretty nice jump.

What was the secret on reading?

Obviously doing more practice tests, but for me this thing was a huge help:

I practiced with it a few times and it took a lot of the “timing” stress out of the test, particularly the reading section. For anyone having time issues, I recommend it (and wish I would have found it earlier, the April test was the first time I used it).

As far as “Registered” v “Tested”, my status as of 2 am Central time last night was still “Registered” but my scores came out at 8 am today. So, just because you’re at Registered doesn’t mean your scores can’t come out instantly on the next release date.

Finally, good luck to all. Whatever your scores are, they CAN and WILL be raised if you continue to take practice tests.

No Congrats on a great score. Spend the time working on other parts of your application.
