When should a student take the ACT?
We recommend that students take the ACT after they have completed Algebra ll. For sophomores and juniors who are currently in Algebra ll, the April test is a good place to start. Seniors looking for a certain score for admission or scholarship opportunities can sign up for the September or October test. Always check the specific college website to make sure scores from those dates will be accepted.
