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.

Test Information Release 
By purchasing Test Information Release (TIR), you will receive a digital copy of the multiple-choice test questions, your answers, a copy of your answer document, the answer key, and the conversion table used in determining your ACT scores. If you took the optional writing test, you will receive a copy of the writing prompt, the writing test scoring rubric, and your essay scores.
