There is currently no Benchmark for writing.  \nYour Score Range  \nTest scores are estimates of your educational development. Think of your true achievement on this test as being within a range that extends about one standard error of measurement, or about 1 point for the Composite and writing scores, and 2 points for STEM, ELA, and the other test scores, above and below your score.  \nUS & State Rank  \nYour ranks tell you the approximate percentages of recent high school graduatesin the US and your state who took the ACT® test and received scores that are the same as or lower than your scores. For example, a rank of 56 for your Composite score means 56% of students earned that Composite score or below.  \nWe counted your correct answers on each subject test. We didn’t take off points for wrong answers. Then, we converted your number of correct answers into a score that ranges from 1 to 36. We call these subject test scores. Your Composite score is the average of your four multiple-choice subject test scores, rounded to the nearest whole number. If you left any test completely blank, that score is reported as two dashes and no Composite score is computed.  \nUndErstanding YoUr scorEs  \nFor the subject test, Composite, writing, STEM, and ELA scores, you’ll notice that your score report shows the specific line (thicker on the graphic) of your score, and it also shows a shaded area around this line.
