A doc I know had an ACT score of 27 (before prep was a big deal). Kinda surprised it was that low. *</p>
<p>I, too, know of a doctor with a 27 ACT, but he’s in his late 50s and that was long before test prep was a big deal. In those days it was “one and done” - so he may have just had a bad test day or just didn’t do well in a particular section.</p>
<p>*IMO, students who got below 25-26 ACT would be unlikely to survive the curriculum with a decent GPA. *</p>
<p>I agree! The exceptions might be the kids who are strong in math and science sections and may just have been lousy in the English and/or CR sections. Perhaps English wasn’t their primary language or the primary language spoken in the home. That can affect English and CR scores.</p>
