<p>How exactly do you calculate your score based on practice tests?? Is there some site that tells you?? Its not in my practice test book...</p>
<p>what practice test book do you have? most books should have scoring chart...</p>
<p>no, actually theveganactress, i went through at least 5 books for my ACT in sept, and only 1 had a scoring chart. the rest had these weird percentage tables. its like i dont care about the %, i just want my composite!!!</p>
<p>Which 5 books?</p>
<p>i took this test more than once, and i went through just about every single ACT book there is. do i remember the exact titles? haha no way.</p>
<p>I find it hard to believe that only 1/5 books would have scoring keys. Not saying I don't believe you, I just don't understand how that's possible.</p>
<p>Anyways, the scoring keys don't change much, so you can kind of compare across tests with a decent amount of accuracy.</p>
<p>just use the scoring guide you found in the one book.
if you remember any titles please post them though, so we don't get a bunch of books without scoring help.</p>
<p>i went online and found a generic one. but on the real test, you also have to take into account the curves, so your score may be higher or lower than it actually is without the curve</p>
<p>laurstar....your score can only go up with a curve....</p>
<p>lollipop, you are joking, right?</p>
<p>laurstar, the "curve" is a table for converting your raw score (number correct) to a standard score (out of 36). There is no such thing as a composite score "without the curve". But yes, each test has a different conversion table, so if you don't use the specific one for the test you took your score might be a point or two higher or lower than it should be.</p>
