<p>I know the SAT takes off 1/4 pt for every wrong answer, and 0 for every unanswered question. Is it the same for the ACT?</p>
<p>No. There is no penalty for guessing on the ACT.</p>
<p>You're welcome, and I hope this is something you can appreciate and enjoy. :)</p>
<p>The questions aren't weighted either. (I don't know if they are on the SAT, I'm just saying.) Your score is determined simply by the raw number of questions you got right, which is then converted to a scale score between 1-36 to eliminate discrepancies in difficulity between different forms of the ACT.</p>
