ACT Scores
As explained on the ACT website, the
ACT test "assesses high school students' general educational development and
their ability to complete college-level work." The test covers the subjects
English, mathematics, reading, and science. There is also an optional writing
portion on the test that measures a student's ability to plan and write an essay.
