ACT – SAT Scoring Conversion

HOW THE SCORING WORKS!

IMPORTANT NOTE: There are no penalties for wrong answers on the ACT, so don't leave any answers blank!

The RAW score is the number of questions you answered correctly.
The Composite score is the average of the 4 scale scores. The Writing Score does NOT factor into the composite score.

The student can send the scores of their choice to selective colleges and universities. Do your best each time you test and take the highest scores and submit them with your college applications.
