<br>
<p>You can do better on the individual subject areas, since the 36 is in most cases a 35 rounded up. Plus, there's always the essay...</p>
<p>Yeah I got</p>
<p>English - 35
Math - 36
Reading - 34
Science - 36</p>
<p>Composite - 35</p>
<p>I am a bit dissappointed with the fact that if I had gotten one more question right on either Reading or English, I would have have gotten a 36, but by no means am I dissappointed with my score.</p>
<p>My D got</p>
<p>Composite 34</p>
<p>English - 34
Math - 34
Reading - 35
Science - 31</p>
<p>She was quite disappointed with the english. She's a sophomore this year. Should she try again, or just leave it? She hasn't yet had all the trig and algebra.</p>
<p>This was my first time taking the ACT but I feel that this will be my only time taking the test because I don't see a ton of room for improvement on my scores; I'm really not sure I could hit that 35 or 36. I did do some practice before hand; I went through about 2 full tests in some sessions with a tutor who helped me for the SAT but most of it wasn't going over strategy but just getting acquainted with the test (I only spent a few hours on it).</p>
<p>I got my scores in the mail today...</p>
<p>Im not gonna share my scores though, (although I improved greatly on english and reading)...too many 34-36's in here, but im well over national average :)</p>
<p>34 as a sophomore-doesn't get any better. Have her take it again junior year and maybe senior year and she will no doubt get a 36.</p>
<p>paki,
Thanks for your reply. I think it maybe a good idea to wait and then retake .</p>
<p>ufstudent... congrats with the improvement! I am aiming for a 26+</p>
<p>That'll make me happy!</p>
<p>AHHHH! My scores CAME IN THE MAIL TODAY. I am so frustrated.</p>
<p>I got a 25
(28 in English).</p>
<p>)=</p>
<p>I got the exact same score last time but did really well in writing. I'm happy -- no more ACT! </p>
<p>English: 35
Mathematics: 29
Reading: 31
Science: 30</p>
<p>Composite: 31</p>
<p>Quick question: can the Writing affect your score, and how?</p>
<p>It's not factored in your composite; it just shows colleges how well you can write.
<3</p>
<p>w00t! lovin this score...no more act for me either!!</p>
<p>Composite:34
English:33
Math:35
Reading:35
Science:33</p>
<p>Writing:...not in yet...meh...whatever...according to the post above...it wont change my score anyway...</p>
<p>Received mine in the mail today:
Composite: 22</p>
<p>I plan to do WAY better on next test.</p>
<p>All of you who already got your scores in the mail, did you take the writing test? The proctor said it'd take about 4-7 weeks to get the results in the mail What day are they going to be available online? It's the first time I took the act and i'm getting anxious...
The website says it usually takes 2.5 weeks to post the multiple choice online, so i guess it'll be this week...</p>
<p>I got mine: 25</p>
<p>I really really messed up on the science section!
I got in 31 on math.</p>
<p>for the english and reading sections, arent the sub scores supposed to add up to make up your compostite. i got an 11 and a 15 on english. shouldnt that be a 26? they gave me a 25</p>
<p>no...it doesn't work like that.
Subscores are calculated differently.
I got a 17 and 12 in English and got an overall score of 28</p>
<p>I want to know what the largest improvement in ACT scores was. I heard of a person who went from a 19 to a 32. Anyone else's stories??</p>
<p>i went from a 31 to 34....not up much numerically...but i find it tough to not screw up on those few extra questions...</p>
<p>ufstudent... congrats with the improvement! I am aiming for a 26+</p>
<p>That'll make me happy!</p>
<p>Wow..i thought i had a low score compared to everyone else but i dont...i got a 25...28 on the reading and 26 on math. i wasnt surprised with my science, but i was with my math, i didnt think it was all that hard.</p>
