Your ACT score is how colleges compare you to other

applicants!

A high ACT score can also make up for a lower GPA.

It is recommended that students take the ACT at least 3 times before high school graduation.

Did you know that a 17 in a sub-score area will override a failing score in that subject on the State Test!
