***December 2016 ACT Discussion Thread***

Does anyone know when writing scores are actually expected to come out? I’m hoping for before Jan. 1st but that seems a high hope?

@DangerDoctor on the website it says january 3rd but it probably will be longer if you havent recieved your multiple choice scores yet

@mdudaramos okay thanks, i’ve received my mc scores already. I wish u the best of luck with urs.

Definitely agree with the others who have said that your scores almost entirely depend on what you have a natural aptitude for, at least for some people. I am currently in precalc and got a 24 on math (two point increase) and 23 on science (down two). I just can’t seem to do well on these sections no matter how much effort I put in, and I’ve never been good at math or science, soo… That explains it haha

@WiscoRunner same, i also got low scores on math and science and i’ve never been good at either

Hi, where did you take the ACT? I’m an international student too and I haven’t received my mc scores yet. Thanks.

@DangerDoctor It’s such a struggle :(( I felt like the math was really hard this time, so I’m not surprised about my 24 in that, but I felt like the science was very easy so I was super disappointed with / confused about my score.

@WiscoRunner yeah but at least ur E&R scores were good im assuming!

@hungtrgn Brazil!

Hey, on the Common App, since my Writing scores are not in yet, what should I put down for the writing scores??? Should I just mark that I didn’t take with writing and say something about it in additional info?

Although ACT said on Twitter that no scores were being posted today, my son’s score showed up today so go and check.

@Twoboysandadog still registered :frowning:
but thanks!

.

This was my first time taking it with no prep and i got a 27. For those who scored higher, how did you prepare?

@nrrviva what are the subscores?

i got my multiple choice scores on the 20th so wasn’t expecting the writing until the 3rd at least but it sounds like people are getting them back already – still nothing on my account though. do a lot of you have essay scores already??

My writing scores are up. I got an 11. What does that mean? On the June ACT my writing scores were out of 36

Also curve was
