Schools use the test as one predictor of academic performance in a college program. The ACT measures critical reasoning skills by testing math and verbal concepts that students have developed over time. It does not measure specific content from high school.  \nWhat is tested on the ACT?  \nThe ACT is comprised of four main sections: English, Reading, Mathematics, and Science. Thereis also an optional Writing section.  \nEnglish – 75 multiple-choice questions based on 5 passages tested in 45 minutes. This section tests knowledge of standard written English including grammar, sentence structure, and organization of writing.  \nMathematics – 60 multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes. This section emphasizes math content prerequisite to most college courses, focusing on algebra, geometry, coordinate geometry, and basic trigonometry.  \nScience – 40 multiple-choice questions in 35 minutes. This section tests interpretation of scientific information and data presented in graphs, tables, experimental descriptions, or collections of differing hypotheses. This section does not require extensive background scientific knowledge. Rather, it tests your reasoning and analysis skills when presented with information in various formats.  \nReading – 40 passage-based, multiple-choice questions tested in 35 minutes. This section measures reading comprehension.  \nWriting – One 40-minute essay. This section is optional, and it must be registered for ahead of time. The prompt presents an issue and three different perspectives on that issue. Students are asked to evaluate the presented perspectives and to formulate their own.  \nWhat ACT test changes take place this year?  \nStarting with the September 2020 test administration, there will be several changes to the ACT test.  \n❖ Online Testing on National Test Dates--Students will be able to take the ACT online and get scores back in a few days. Students will still be able to choose a paper/pencil test.  \n❖ Section Retesting--Students will be able to retake 1-3 sections of the ACT without retaking sections on which they are happy with their scores.  \n❖ Superscoring--Students will have the option of creating a “Superscore,” which uses their best scores on each section to create a composite score.  \nHow is the ACT scored?  \nThe number of correctly answered questions is summed to obtain a raw score, which is then converted to a standardized scale. There is no penalty for incorrect answers.❖ Each of the 4 subject tests is scored on a scale from 1-36.  \n❖ The scores of the 4 subtests are then averaged to give an overall composite score ranging from 1-36.  \n❖ Score reports also contain rankings which indicate the percentile in which you scored. (For example, a ranking of 50% indicates you scored higher than 50% of test takers.)  \nWhat is a good score?  \nIt depends. A good score should not be defined by a particular number. Rather, it should be defined as one that gets you into the college you want. Check with the programs you are considering, and ask them if they have a minimum and/or an average for everyone in the program to get a better idea of your target score.  \nHow much does it cost to take the ACT?  \nACT Registration $52* Includes score reports for student, student’s school, and up to four colleges (must be designated at time of registration)  \nACT with Writing Registration $68* The $16.50 writing test fee is refundable if the studentswitches registration to ACT without writing before the test date.  \nRe-register by Phone $15* This is available only if student has previously registered; fee is assessed only if re-registering by phone. There is no convenience fee added to online registrations.  \nTest Date or Location Change Fee $32* Late Registration Fee $32*  \nStandby Testing $55* Refunded if not admitted to ","cbCaitqGYcDUeXei","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitqGYcDUeXei","pdf",170863,"English","# Basic Information\n## What is tested on the ACT?\n## What ACT test changes take place this year?\n## How is the ACT scored?\n## What is a good score?\n## How much does it cost to take the ACT?\n## Can I take a practice test?\n## How do I register for the ACT?\n# ACT Summer Institute Preparation Class\n## Class Details\n## What makes our class different?","[{\"question\":\"What sections does the ACT include, and what do they test?\",\"answer\":\"The ACT includes English, Reading, Mathematics, and Science, with an optional Writing section.
