April ACT Results

<p>@Pjbrida the only thing we can do is to check back each wednesday and friday :(</p>

<p>Junior, First time taking it, did very little prep–although had I prepped more I doubt it would’ve done a whole lot</p>

<p>Composite: 33</p>

<p>English: 34
Math: 34
Reading: 31
Science: 32</p>

<p>@alex513</p>

<p>I am also sophomore taking this a second time. My first time I got a 34.</p>

<p>Composite: 33
Math: 36
English: 33
Reading: 32
English: 30</p>

<p>From what I have heard, taking AP English your junior year REALLY helps. I am planning on getting a 35 or 36 my junior year. Look at some of my previous posts. I have gave some pretty handy tips in regards to the ACT, including things like programming your calculator.</p>

<p>C: 30
E: 35
M: 34
R: 23
S: 27</p>

<p>The curves in February for reading and science were way better (I had a 25 and 30, respectively). Still don’t understand how I could get a 35 on English but a 23 on reading (and the worst part was I got an 18 on reading the first time I took it in December). Ahhh you all blew me away, complaining about your 35s :stuck_out_tongue: I’m embarrassing hahaha</p>

<p>and when do writing scores come out for the people who haven’t gotten theirs yet?</p>

<p>@Otemachi Do they only release new scores on Wednesdays and Fridays? I don’t want to be checking constantly tomorrow, or every day this week for that matter, like I did today if the only shots are W’s and F’s.</p>

<p>So my status is still registered…anyone knows what is going on?</p>

<p>No idea. I’m with you Easonok, as is Otemachi and countless others. No one at my school has gotten theirs back yet. Do you know of others at your school that received theirs?</p>

<p>E-31
M-36
S-35
R-33
holy crap, way above expectations
was there a huge curve or something?</p>

<p>Composite: 35
English: 36
Math: 34
Reading: 34
Science: 34</p>

<p>I was actually very pleased with my scores, especially since it was my first time trying the ACT and I had minimal preparation for it. I was definitely surprised at the science, because I felt like I had absolutely positively bombed that section as soon as it was over. I don’t plan to take the ACT again, and I don’t really understand why some people with 34s and 35s are so disappointed and dead set on taking the test again. Those are great scores! Unless I am much mistaken, once you pass a certain benchmark score, colleges don’t really show much preference.</p>

<p>Congrats everyone!</p>

<p>haha yeah same
i thot i wouldn’t even pass the 30’s mark, turns out i got a 34 and the fact that i started studying at 10 pm on friday
does anyone know when the essay score should come out? mine’s still blank</p>

<p>@Pjbrida according to the actstudent website…they periodically release scores…normally on Wednesday and Friday if your scores are not available on apr 30.</p>

<p>btw i live in Alabama.</p>

<ol>
<li> Ballin. One simple math mistake away from perfection, but I suppose I can’t complain about a 35.</li>
</ol>

<p>I have a 35 but I might retake for 36 + better writing. However, I am very pleased with 35. The 36 would be more of a pride thing. No one in my school has ever gotten a 36 so I could be the first. In fact, I am the 2nd person so far to get a 35 in my school in the past 10 years (I don’t know about any old scores). I definitely have the potential as long as I do not make careless mistakes. However, it would not be for college admission unless I get like a 6 on writing.</p>

<p>English- 35
Math- 35
Reading- 34</p>

<p>and the death of me:
Science- 28</p>

<p>For a composite of 33.</p>

<p>This was my first time, no prep whatsoever… and I definitely didn’t time my science section well at all (ran out of time and had to blind guess on 6 of them! The horror!), but the others look pretty solid to me. Would it be worth it to retake to get science up to par? It’d probably raise my composite to a 35 if I did… Other than that, I’m thrilled with my results, considering I took it cold turkey.</p>

<p>Everyone’s scores are looking fantastic! Congratulations!</p>

<p>I was wondering how they find out the composite score. Is it based on each subject’s score and then the average or just total wrong or something else? I have friends who got 34 36 34 34 on another ACT test and only a 34 composite.</p>

<p>@elitenoob That’s curious. My friend got an average of 34.5 (33 34 35 36) and had a 35 composite. The average of your friends’ scores is also a 34.5, so I don’t know why it ended up as a 34 and not a 35 if they were averaging… But I don’t know the finer details of scoring. /no help</p>

<p>Also, with two subscores of 18, my English score was still a 35. What’s up with that?</p>

<p>Yeah, I am wondering like how do they curve it for each test. The score was from another test date so that might make the difference. Otherwise, it could be like the number wrong?</p>

<p>Any freshman scores?</p>

<p>My daughter took the ACT as part of her application for OHS. </p>

<p>C:27
E:34
M:24
R:26
S:24</p>

<p>I don’t think this score puts her in the running even with a 4.0 GPA.</p>

<p>Hahahahaha ^ Your daughter should teach me English.</p>
